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."

UPDATED: We just added *more* resources to help young voters counter disenfranchisement efforts — AI deepfakes, campus speech bans, intimidation at the polls, etc. Not all election threats are created equal — here’s how to spot the difference: protectdemocracy.org/work/gen-z-t...

Gov. Newsom signed the No Kings Act today, giving residents the right to sue federal agents like ICE for violating their constitutional rights. CA is now the 5th state to offer this right, reaching +70 mil Americans. Our own Cameron Kistler, who testified in support, said: protdem.org/4jxgm2p

"In a country where the United States Constitution is the supreme law of the land, whether Americans should have a remedy for wrongs committed by governmental officials should turn on whether the Constitution was violated—not what badge the officer has."

One, this hilariously outs who all got the talking points in advance and how blatantly they parrot those. Two, Schmitt really thought today he'd launch himself to the VP nomination and with that a decent shot at the presidency down the line. Instead this is the only thing he'll be remembered for.

I do think they probably ran his texts through an LLM and it hallucinated crimes. That’s scary and bad and it’s funny they got caught, but imagine how many other times this happens on a day to day basis against people with no rights, let alone the ability to publicly humiliate the AI prosecutor.

When ICE operates in Kansas, it needs to coordinate with our local law enforcement. Our sheriffs and police know these communities better than anyone, and working together keeps officers and residents safe.

The people in power hate our country and want to isolate it from the world, make it smaller and weaker. It is their long game. Undoing the deep, deep damage they've inflicted isnt impossible, but it will be hard and require real structural evolution for our democracy.
