Of course he lied to Congress. Hello?! He's RFKjr. His Samoa trip and his motives are well-documented. In this tiny island-nation, his actions are directly responsible for sickening thousands, the deaths of at least 83 people – most were children under five years old. He's trying to cull us!

Jackson is exactly right. Collins helped move it to passage, and she bears responsibility for that even if the party let her vote against it at the very end for plausible deniability. If Jackson had been in that seat, it would've been no votes down the line.

The situation in Haiti is terrifying. On Sunday, 150 gunmen swept down on a town to kill, rape, loot, and burn. 22 people were executed in a churchyard. 52 were taken hostage. Stephen Miller mockingly says Haiti is safe and ICE just sent its second deportation flight this month; with kids on board.
They arrived in silence, under cover of darkness, heavily armed as they surrounded the town and moved through Kenscoff’s rugged terrain and towering forests in the mountains above the Haitian capital. Numbering around 150, the gunmen swept through several locations as they made their way toward the center of the town, opening fire on resident who tried to flee. At least 13 people were shot and killed as the gunmen ran through downtown, according to an account by the United Nations human rights office. As more than 50 others sought refuge in L’Arche de la Nouvelle Alliance, a Protestant church that had been sheltering people already displaced by the violence, the gunmen pursued them. When they arrive, they forced residents from the church and executed 22 of them in its courtyard. A dozen others were killed behind the sanctuary. The attackers didn’t just stop there. Before withdrawing from downtown, an area encompassing City Hall and a Haiti National Police substation, they abducted at least 52 people, including a mother and her five children, as well as another mother and her infant. Children and elderly who could not run were killed inside their homes. Others were burned alive after gunmen set at least a dozen houses on fire, witnesses told the National Human Rights Defense Network. The attackers also shot horses and other livestock inside the rural enclave.

Claims that immigrants are responsible for measles outbreaks are a lie. 94% of US measles cases are in unvaccinated people. Contact tracing shows a majority of imported measles cases are in unvaccinated US residents returning from travel. The cause of measles outbreaks is anti-vax disinformation.

Fourteen years ago, HBO's 'The Newsroom' laid out the truth about voter ID in this segment. It’s striking how little the arguments — or the tactics — have changed. Still a solution in search of a problem. History doesn’t repeat itself — it gets rerun.

I just witnessed an ICE abduction in N Seattle, after following several black SUV's traveling almost double the speed limit I followed them to The Crown Inn where they stopped a man in a white work truck and abducted him I tried to raise the attention of cars and bystanders but most ignored me
Black SUV's driving through the intersection of Aurora and 130th without sirens and barely visible lightsICE vehicles stopping at the Crown in to abduct a manICE agents standing around guarding other agents abducting a manSticker these sick fucks handed me saying 'Fugitive Operations Seattle, WA' and the latin phrase 'ne quis effugiat' centered, which translates to 'So that none will escape'

Headline says "at least 1 in 4" but the finding was NINETY-ONE PERCENT of NFL players' brains donated from 2016–2021 had CTE. Presumably people were more likely to donate if they had known dementia, so the real number is hard to extrapolate. But, horrifying. 🧪 www.nytimes.com/2026/08/25/u...

Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro says RFK Jr. offered federal help after two unvaccinated people died from measles, the first U.S. deaths this year. Shapiro declined, saying PA could handle it, and confronted Kennedy, telling him: “There’s real life consequences to spreading misinformation.”

One of the first "outrageous" claims I saw as Jason Arday's media hounding unfolded was that he ran 30 marathons in 35 days! Wow! What a thing to claim! And the newspapers all suggested there was no evidence he actually did it. Well, they clearly didn't look very hard 🙄 🧵 1/26

The core problem is malicious people manipulating ignorant people, and such a situation requires the exact opposite of sympathy, which inherently acknowledges the validity of the malicious position. The situation requires shame: "You are all grifting liars who are killing children."

Norway shows #EV adoption isn't the end—it’s when gas stations start closing. 430 have shut since 2020. Fewer stations, longer detours, higher costs. Convenience flips. That’s the real tipping point: infrastructure disappearing, making ICE obsolete from the outside in. #Disruption #Bettrifications

The tricky thing is that this is true of ALL laws. ANY law or code can be weaponized by bad faith actors. (Check out any misdemeanor code if you don’t believe me.) It’s why I’ve come to really dislike the term ”rule of law.” It puts the law at the front. It‘s really the ”rule of good faith norms.”

The term “rule of law” suggests that the law itself is at the center of whatever it is we think of w that term. And laws aren’t IRRELEVANT. Better-written laws > worse-written. But no law, or law about enforcing the law, can overcome norms and politics. There’s no “legal” fix to any of this.

I admit, when WA passed a law mandating a carbon-free electricity system by 2045, it did not occur to me that utilities would simply ignore the law & double down on gas plants. Laws mean nothing without credible, visible enforcement.
seattletimes.com
WA wanted clean energy. But utilities plan fleet of gas plants
WA's utilities must go carbon-free by 2045. So why are they turning now to natural gas?

I think one reason the public has such a shallow understanding of the extent of the damage Trump is doing is that *US political & media elites* have such a shallow understanding. Douthat's pleasant upper-middle-class life hasn't been unduly disturbed, so really, what's the big deal?

Former U.S. President Joe Biden was diagnosed with aggressive prostate cancer in May 2025, which had spread to his bones. The disease is in an advanced stage. According to his family and doctors, his treatment and hormone therapy are continuing.
As a Dane, I can say this: the rest of the world sees Biden for who he truly is-a kind and caring human being.
He was a good president.
He is a good human being.
I am deeply sorry for him and his loved ones.
