I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

Christa Pike’s lawyers had warned execution would be ‘difficult and perhaps cruel’ due to her veins
Ex-lawyer for woman Tennessee attempted to execute says defense filings said she was at risk for ‘exactly what happened’ A former lawyer for Christa Pike says he was not surprised that Tennessee botched its attempt to execute her because attorneys had warned that problems accessing her veins could make the procedure dangerous and potentially cruel. James Crowson, who represented Pike during part of her post-conviction appeals, said he had followed the case from afar before the failed execution at Riverbend Maximum Security Institution in Nashville on 30 September.

I mean.... do people know that Bob Kraft is an AIPAC megadonor, raises funds for the IDF, and has even set up the organization Touchdown for Israel, where NFL players are given free, highly conscripted trips to see “the holy land"? Suffice it to say, the West Bank and Gaza are not on the tour.

This is pretty fucking wild. I had assumed in a worst case scenario he would target blue zip codes and toss ballots based on technicalities but this is even worse than I imagined.
Not only is this system astonishingly untested, USPS has simultaneously implemented an
impracticable zero percent failure rate.
13 When ballots are submitted to USPS in large-volume
batches, if any one ballot in the batch cannot be verified against the Portal, all ballots in that
batch will be rejected. For example, if a state election official brings a batch of 10,000 ballots to
USPS and USPS is unable to match just one of those ballots against the Portal – because, for
example, someone has recently changed their name after marriage or they’ve moved – then
USPS would refuse to mail the remaining 9,999 ballots as well. As the whistleblower notes,

I know everyone’s making their jokes, but to be real: it’s an American sickness that the media and political class are praising someone who has spent last year calling for a genocide. Lindsay Graham was the worst of us. He wanted the blood of children to flow in the streets of Gaza and got his wish.

Mainstream Respectable opinion is that people joking about a bad person's death represents a culture of cruelty, but really it represents a culture of impunity. It's a coping mechanism for watching someone do evil their whole life and never seeing consequences

I personally think that everyone needs to know this so I’m going to say it again: everything that team ownership and MLB has done in the last 12 months indicates they are preparing for a lockout next year. They are all but counting on it. The owners would rather there not be baseball next spring.

I hate to break it to all the "nonpartisan" defense think tanks but defense has been partisan in the US for a while now and we really can't credibly commit to lasting security contributions until we clean house and that includes the people who don't think what the GOP is doing is that big of a deal

Court can't go on like this. The Constitution as plainly as possible says people who were born here have an unequivocal right to citizenship. Four people whose ONLY job is to read the Constitution for the rest of their lives just tried to overturn it because they're tired of brown people. Pack it.

As violent crime in America falls, especially in urban areas of the Northeast and Midwest, homicides perpetrated by police officers skyrocket and American police establish themselves as the most violent part of US society. It seems to be a function of the legal doctrine of impunity.

American police killings are rising, even as murder rates fall
More aggressive cops are less restrained
