Just a whole load of horrifying crimes here where we can’t now say “if only the world knew, if only everyone could see”. The world knows very well and anyone who wants to see, can see just fine.

The important thing to keep in mind is that laws are fake for people in power so it doesn't actually matter. Trump could scrawl some tree bark with his own feces that he's renamed California as Commiefornia and there would still be people arguing it was legally binding.

Much of what she has written for Erin in the Morning since Spring 2023 has been written and/or influenced by AI. The resulting articles are full of unacknowledged and unretracted errors.

Phantom candidate & erased votes: Colin Allred. Erin lists Allred in TX-33 (Veasey’s seat; Allred ran for Senate in '24). While his defensive ads were painful to the community, Erin completely hides his legislative record: Allred literally voted AGAINST the federal sports ban (HR 734).

I don't officially go back to work until tomorrow, but have logged in to do some tasks these last two days. Before leaving town, I'd packed my luxury briefcase, one of the first things I bought when I moved to DC years ago, only to be reminded that one of the zippers is kaput. So now it's a cat bed.

This appears to be another example of an individual, this time an Israeli Jew, being targeted for anti-Israel advocacy. Withholding or removing someone's legal status over a constitutionally protected right to protest doesn't make Jews more safe. It erodes the protections we have long relied on.

Trump over Democrats on the border.Sept. 18, 2024
Vice President Kamala Harris warned of mass deportations and "massive detention camps" if former President Donald J. Trump returned to office, telling an audience of Hispanic leaders in Washington that his immigration agenda was a danger to the country.
"We all remember what they did to tear families apart," Ms. Harris said at a Congressional Hispanic Caucus event on Wednesday, part of an effort to build up support among Latino voters. "And now they have pledged to carry out the largest deportation, a mass deportation, in American history.
