4/ Fernando Vasquez, an 18-year-old citizen, was on break from work when agents chased and handcuffed him, then put him in their truck. After realizing their mistake, the agents left the teen alone in the woods, with no way to get home. Then they threw his ID out of the truck.

What's going to really annoy me are going to be Americans ignorantly trying to map their ideas about "thermostatic opinion" or whatever to Brazil, ignoring that toxic US-backed fascists own 90% of media in the country and poured dark money into this election.

the Cornell case should make us question prosecutors and police all the time: the same DA offices discounting college students’ sexual assault cases (the lacking investigations, the disbelief) are happy to jail countless women for far less, day in and day out, when most people aren’t watching

60 Minutes (@60Minutes) on X:

“This is the first time in my adult life where there's been an issue that's come up that I feel like is going to directly impact me,” says Dave Lowe, a lifelong conservative Republican who lives near a proposed data center in Texas.

Under pressure from Gavin Newsom, California lawmakers decided to kill a program that funds air conditioning and clean air upgrades in public schools. Don't worry though, it's good for "affordability" — utility customers will save ~$1 per month! calmatters.org/environment/...

California lawmakers let schools' AC funding lapse, handing $191 million back to utilities
Despite sweltering classrooms and a heat wave, the state chose to return unspent CalSHAPE funds to ratepayers.

I can no longer in good faith recommend anyone to study in the US, or stay stateside for work and further education after completing degree programs they had started during the Biden era. US higher ed is unrecognizable even compared to a year ago when ICE was kidnapping students from their homes

"Low-emission zones," where car traffic is restricted, save lives -- especially the lives of children. The empirical evidence is unambiguous. But every attempt to create a new one is met by hysterical opposition filled with lies, because our societies are collectively poisoned by car-brain.
theguardian.com
London’s low emission zone is working – so why are cities around the world so cautious about clean air?
Similar initiatives have been launched from Barcelona to Bogotá, but they have misinformation, political pressure and vested interests stacked against them

Karen Bass reelection update: the mayor has come out as anti-taco stand. In Los Angeles.
“I do not believe that you should have a food vendor in front of a restaurant, period,” Bass shot back, adding that she wanted them off the streets completely and in brick-and-mortar locations. Their presence near restaurants “discourages people from going in, just like you shouldn’t have encampments in front of restaurants or in front of schools. You just should not do that.”

What a lot of Americans do not know is that the Southern border is dotted with mass murder sites where white supremacist militias (such as the Rangers) performed lynchings and mass executions of Mexicans and Indians. To this day, bleached skulls with bullet holes in the head can be found out there.

most murders are committed by someone the victim knows - a partner, neighbor etc. but in cases where there is no relationship between murderer & victim? the killer is a cop about a third of the time. if you are killed by a stranger, there is a 1 in 3 chance that stranger is a cop.

I like how all of these guys go for the identical Rogan knockoff aesthetic of putting up neon signs and having exposed brick in their faux man cave. It could make a case study for how one generation's hipster look becomes the next generation's stale copy-paste conservatism.

Lindsay Graham was, I think, one of the most contemptible figures in US politics, a titan of respectable bipartisan foreign policy for years who displayed no principles, no insight, and no beliefs beyond a gleeful and vicarious love of violence. An indictment of every institution he served in. RIP.
