In the summer of 2013, two esoteric, technical, incredibly important texts were published within weeks of one another: the first is the Snowden leaks, which revealed a system of global, pervasive digital surveillance. 1/

"Eugène Delacroix's painting 'La Liberté guidant le peuple' ('Liberty Leading the People'), depicting the French revolution as a ragtag group of peasants led by a flag-waving, bare-breasted incarnation of 'Liberty.' The painting has been altered: the scene is now being observed with a giant, smoke-shrouded CCTV dome, and the distant building have been replaced with a mainframe computer.

I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.

This is my hometown (he's only been the judge since I was 2 or 3), and I've practiced eviction defense in front of him since 2023. The man fell asleep while on the bench once—snoring into the mic—while OC and I discussed the specifics of a settlement. Related: the NYS Justice Courts are a disaster.

Even under SCOTUS's dubious reasoning in Trump v. U.S., there is no scenario in which maneuvering billions of dollars to an offshore account to keep it out of reach from Congress and courts is an "official act." This is all criminal and impeachable.

This sure seems more like the tyranny the Constitution is supposed to protect against than forgiving student loans.

"The freedom of individuals verbally to oppose or challenge police action without thereby risking arrest is one of the principal characteristics by which we distinguish a free nation from a police state." —William J.

One horrific thing to me is that the president- a man who has gotten away with everything including literal murder up to this point- seems extremely nervous about anything regarding Epstein coming out. Like how bad does it have to be

whatever you think of Spanberger, the fact that her opponent ran a campaign based almost entirely on transphobia and is on track to eat shit in the biggest blowout the state has seen since 2009 is unambiguously a huge win

I want to be clear: this is what American prisons are like. I spent years posting about the humanitarian crisis in U.S. prisons. The criminal legal system consigns Americans who are incarcerated to live like this FOR YEARS. DECADES.

This is a budget for a declaration of total war on the population. It's the building of an army of blackshirts and the creation of a massive system of concentration camps. A crystallization of everything lurking below the surface of the American project.

I know this can sound kind of silly at a time like this, but doing a war without congressional authorization is ample grounds for impeachment

The article frames Skrmetti as a poor strategic gamble by activists. In reality, Tennessee passed a categorical ban applicable solely to transgender adolescents which was framed in sex-based terms. The choices were (a) challenge it or (b) concede defeat in advance and abandon trans teens nationwide.

That GOAT talk was premature for Mahomes. He’s incredible. Maybe already the second-best QB ever. But the talk got a little out of hand for a guy four Lombardis behind Brady.

vance is lying and knows he’s lying but even if he weren’t, “separation of powers means the president is an elected despot” may be true in some other political system but it has never been true in the american political system

Trump can’t end birthright citizenship constitutionally but that’s not the point. He’s giving people permission to police who seems to be American or not and by “American” they mean white. Vance’s family will get targeted because they’re not white. They’re already getting some of it.

The more I read about the tariffs, the angrier I get about the reality that the burdens of paying more for fridges and dishwashers are going to fall heaviest on people who can least afford it, and who don’t have the privilege of being able to plan these big-ticket purchases in advance
