I try not to get too excited about any politician for obvious reasons, but Angie Nixon is inspiring in a way that is extremely rare in US politics

stating that Israel is engaged in an ongoing genocide against Palestinian people is a basic fact. It's uncontroversial. It's true.

Their band is called “Rage Against The Machine,” not “Overturn The Machine.” Tom Morello’s entire wealth depends on The Machine continuing. Harris, with an economic degree and plans to help the working class, was a thread to The Machine. And a threat to the Machine is a threat to Tom MorelloNo no no see he wants to continue to Rage Against The Machine, not to see it overpowered by the people. If there’s no Machine for him to Rage against, how would he make his millions or chase his clout?No no no he wants to rage against the machine not stop it from harming citizens. If there’s no machine to rage against how will he chase clout and make millions?

Twitter/X is just a full right-wing cope mode over the polls this week. Totally data-free discourse flying left and right about non-response among rural voters. It's the wild west over there

Richie Torres figured it out?
What they're saying: "The ads were deeply offensive to the Equality Caucus and the broader LGBTQ community that we represent," said Rep. Ritchie Torres (D-N.Y.), who co-chairs the caucus' political arm, Equality PAC.

He told Axios: "The Equality Caucus is not going to stand by passively and allow anyone to scapegoat the trans community. It is a red line for us."
Equality PAC "is absolutely not supporting her campaign at this time," the group said in a separate statement to Axios, calling Kaptur's language "unacceptable."

To be entirely fair to the prof, it wasn’t really possible to make admin law interesting even back then (before the Roberts Court really started to sink its teeth into the total destruction of the administrative state)

I took an admin law class from the guy who defended Jim Bakker in his criminal fraud case. This professor was an eccentric dude (he dressed as Flava Flav every Halloween) who was beloved by the student body for his allegedly endearing weirdness. I found his class boring and his shtick tiresome

“how do we win back trump voters in 2026” we don’t. we create an environment where admitting to voting for trump is so socially embarrassing as to render them completely inert. you don’t “win back” trump voters. you demoralize them into staying home. you make it a dunce cap

The MN-Sen polls have struck me as bizarre. Like, what do you mean a state that hasn’t voted for an R for President in my lifetime is suddenly going to elect an R to the Senate in a midterm year when an R is president?

Case in point: Skyy Moore’s laughable stat line of 1 catch for -2 yards got me nearly *2x more* fantasy points than Garrett Wilson’s 3/27 stat line got for my opponent because Moore returned a punt and a couple kickoffs. Ridiculous

I know it’s only 2 games in and they’ve only faced good teams on the road, but the way things are going for the B-hawks, this is sure looking like a “head coach and GM both fired at the All-Star break” kind of season

The problem isn’t that they’re moving past it—it’s that they’re trying to rehabilitate it. Would be better for everyone if people who don’t want to engage with the facts just talked about the play on the field and left it at that.

NEW: According to a bombshell report in the New York Times, Anthropic co-founder Chris Olah threatened to walk out of Pope Leo XIV's Al encyclical launch in May because the pope rejected the idea that machines can be conscious.
Olah's team then privately lobbied the pope's advisers "to take the possibility of model consciousness seriously." Pope Leo XIV held firm.
For months, Anthropic has wined and dined theologians and religious scholars under nondisclosure agreements, hoping they would bless the idea that Claude has moral standing.

The death penalty is a moral abomination. State-sanctioned barbarism pushed by incompetent morons and sanctioned by the Supreme Court. Absolute ghoul shit. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...
The lone woman on Tennessee's death row was still alive after she was administered two lethal injections, her lawyer said in a motion seeking to halt her execution Wednesday night, a stunning development after the Supreme Court had stepped in to allow the state to put her to death.
At 8:26 p.m. local time, witnesses said
"executioners had injected both syringes of lethal injection chemicals and Pike is still alive and snoring," her lawyers said in a federal court filing.
They said Pike "has not lost consciousness and still has a heartbeat," and that curtains to the death chamber "have gone down twice."
