The reason I keep hammering the lesser evil thing is because it’s just true. I genuinely think it’s true. We would be better off as a country if we elected Democrats, even when I don’t think they can always be trusted. And even when their policies would still kill and abandon many people.

"It’s comforting, after all, to see fascism more as ugly rhetoric than actionable ideas. To imagine they will stop short of the most extreme implications of their worldview. If this were true, it would at least preclude the worst outcomes. "But there is very, very little reason to think that it is"

The more we learn about ICE’s airport dragnet, the worse it gets. ICE is grabbing people at SFO and other airports and sending them to private prison gulags — people with no criminal record, no deportation orders, and even with pending visa or change of status applications.

OK, so just as I have to yell at my fellow Americans "air conditioners *are* heat pumps!" to combat basic ignorance of what the tech actually is, Europeans need to hear "heat pumps *are* air conditioners" because y'all are making arguments which don't make sense if you see why heat pumps are good.

I'm sorry, what? In writing my first monograph, I spent six weeks trying to track down a citation in TWO languages I didn't know. And good thing too, because the citation was wrong. That's scholarship. That's research. You know, the thing we're trained to do?!?
The reactions of some researchers on Twitter finally being held responsible for not having read the very paper they submitted are... something. Mainly, they don't think they should have to check every citation or make sure the data is real and accurate. Because it's too hard, I guess.

Cosmically, there is something very darkly funny about spending an entire decade of American politics obsessed with repudiating the mistakes of the Iraq War, and then immediately doing it again at the first opportunity, but with even less justification, planning, strategy, or foresight.

Metry and her husband of 4 years go to DHS to get their I-130 in motion. "Good news" a DHS employee told them, the form to start her naturalization was approved. DHS employee asks the husband to follow him through a secure door. When it locks behind him, ICE detains his wife to deport her.

Good to see that many Dem elected officials now want to be seen getting involved in the cases of immigrants who have been wrongly detained by ICE. Let's spare a word for @vanhollen.senate.gov, who did this for Kilmar Abrego Garcia back when wise pundits said this was politically dangerous.

Ilhan Omar is an American hero. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...
Ms. Omar, visibly shaken after the assault, insisted to her staff and security that she would continue. She asked for a napkin and told them: "Just give me 10 minutes. I beg you. Please don't let them have the show."
Ms. Omar then turned the crowd. "Here's the reality that people like this ugly man don't understand," she said. "We are Minnesota strong, and we will stay resilient in the face of whatever they might throw at us."
Someone in the crowd later thanked Ms.
Omar for staying and continuing after the assault, which had shaken not only her but the entire room.
"I learned at a young age you don't give in to threats," Ms. Omar said.
