You can't get anyone in political media to say it plainly, but GOP strategy for several decades now has been built around the fact that its core goals/policies are *wildly unpopular*. Everything depends on a) polluting the information environment, b) cementing unfair structural advantages, & c) $$$.

Saw someone I went to OCS with post “não quero guerra com ninguém” (“I don’t want war with anyone”) while chilling on a California beach, which has to be one of the ten most galling things I’ve witnessed all year.

I'm a pro-union socialist and I think that bailing out the Teamster's pensions was a massive mistake by Biden.

i think this is sort of wrong in that the entire Republican push to make people believe that government doing literally anything is socialism has made people believe that socialism is when the government does literally anything

Reminded that the US sent pieces of the WTC to the front during the initial invasion of Afghanistan. They also allowed troops to put decals of the blacked-out trade center and G. I. Joe stickers on their vehicles.

there are New Jersey cities that achieved the feat of climbing into the middle or upper class within the past decade where mass layoffs and school closures are now either on the table or already happening because the state chose to do tax cuts and inflation-adjusted austerity

Trump's lawlessness is more pressing, but let's not forget: the GWBush admin was also overflowing with incompetent, corrupt Republicans who were pathologically hostile to the rule of law. None of this was necessary or helpful, but it made them feel manly and it was good money for gov't contractors.
“A detainee who is shackled, transported to a former C.I.A. black site, and intentionally kept ignorant of both his right to remain silent and the inadmissibility of his prior coerced confessions, cannot be said to be making an ‘essentially free and unconstrained choice,’” he wrote.

Earlier this week, I agreed to interviews with two USA Today journalists. They wrote fantastic articles about the Cornell case that I'm proud to have been a part of. What I did not know is that their employer considers interviews to proprietary and opens up recordings to be used by any journalist.

I don't see any way we avoid a fundamental legitimacy crisis before this Presidential term ends because there is no fucking way Trump is going accept that the Dems have authority over spending, even in the unlikely event he resigns himself to having a Dem Congress at all.

the response should be immediate contempt proceedings all the way up the chain of command to the ICE/ERO directors including escalating fines and orders to personally appear in court. if that doesn't do the trick, criminal contempt, throw them in jail. play stupid games, win stupid prizes

Incarcerated women report rampant sexual abuse by guards and the guards retaliate by spraying them with chemical agents and sending them to the hospital as a warning. Rape culture and brazen misogyny from the highest institution to the lowest.

Seattle uses the 160-acre Jackson Park as a golf course. What does this mean for salmon? 2 creeks flow thru into Lake Washington & would be exceptional salmon habitat BUT >66% of the water in the North Fork is drained to irrigate the course, at a rate of >30k gallons/hr. jp4all.org/learn-more/e...
Golf course with two swiggly blue lines pictured. The longer one, Thornton Creek North Fork, starts at 145th and I-5 and crosses the lower 1/3 left corner of the golf course, then travels east and goes a little bit north and exits the map. The other, Little's Creek, clips the right top 1/4 corner of the course.
