Luigi Mangione has been indicted on federal charges of two counts of stalking, firearms offense, and murder through the use of a firearm. Murder through the use of a firearm makes him eligible for the death penalty if convicted.

No matter your station in life, there is astoundingly little separating you from those men in that cage behind Kristi Noem. No charges, no attorneys, no hearings, no trial. Just conjecture and brute force could be enough to justify completely dehumanizing you, too.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable. Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes. Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

Few things better summarize the fact that "tough on crime" is about social control, not actually fighting serious crime, than the contrast between these two stories, both of which came out today.

Trump expected to order a crackdown on D.C. crime, homeless encampments
The president campaigned against D.C. as a “nightmare of murder and crime.” He is considering an order to crack down on petty crime and clear homeless encampments.

DOJ orders corruption charges against NYC Mayor Eric Adams be dismissed

When we generalize about any group of people , we shut out the people who are on the fence. Trump is going to convince a lot of MAGA to stop supporting him. I'm ok being told I have TDS if the end result is that we convince the 1.5m more people that voted for him, to no longer consider him.
