As the Trump regime sues LA officials for not disqualifying 20,000 people DHS has labeled as non-citizens based upon their screening tool, it is good to remember that DHS used to same tool to identify over 15,000 non-citizen voters in Nevada. Complete checks revealed that ALL of them are citizens.

From 16,000 to 185 to Zero: Trump’s Claims of Illegal Voting in Nevada Fizzle.

It was the Trump administration’s latest stumble in its effort to find proof of widespread noncitizen voting, despite decades of evidence that it is extremely rare.

🧵 about the complicated but do-able (and *interesting*) methodology of doing statistics well. the other thing about this that makes me furious is how much human time & effort has gone into figuring out how to do this reasonably well & agreeing what that means & they are trying to destroy it.

The end is even wilder.

I keep thinking about the woman at the café. The one with the flat white and the tap water, staring at her phone with that expression of total, luminous vacancy.

She looks peaceful. She looks like she has reached something the Cathars burned for, something St. Catherine destroyed her own body to find, something eight centuries of mystics and ascetics and holy fools chased through deserts and monasteries and the cold cells of the Languedoc. She has silenced the beast. She has conquered the Demiurge.

She also looks like she might cry if someone offered her a croissant. Not because she wants it. Because she can’t remember why she ever did.
