🧙‍♂️These three things, monks, are conducted in secret, not openly. What three? Affairs with women, the mantras of the brahmins, and wrong view. (Opinions are all my own, especially the good ones.)

The ICE agent on the scene of the shooting in New York has repeatedly been accused in federal court of unlawful arrests and excessive force. He previously used a Taser 6 times on a handcuffed man and shoved a pregnant woman to the ground.

I won't argue the broader point about whether America was better than those other states, but I will argue that while executing convicts is morally repugnant by itself, turning it into a spectacle that the public is invited to revel in is additionally repugnant, making the combination worse.

To every politician in New York: Do not tell the protesters to behave peacefully. Do not tell the protesters to disperse and go home. Instead, tell ICE to behave peacefully. Tell ICE to disperse and go home. Side with your constituents, not the Trump administration.

I think we meet an explanation from @ritchietorres.bsky.social. Now: “ICE has long operated as a rogue agency.” Last June: *votes with Republicans to thank ICE “for protecting the homeland”* So, congressman… which is it?
Rep. Ritchie Torres

I am outraged by the ICE shooting of a man in Marble Hill today as he sat in his car beside a 5-year-old child.

Firing multiple rounds into a car with a child inside, on a busy residential street in the Bronx, is abhorrent and indefensible. It put an entire neighborhood in danger and left a man seriously injured.

ICE has long operated as a rogue agency, and today's shooting is a chilling reminder of how little regard it has for the safety of New Yorkers. I am calling on the DHS Inspector General to open an immediate and independent investigation, and on ICE to release all footage of the shooting.

New Yorkers are owed a full accounting, not silence.Newsweek:

They’re live-streaming the execution of the person they think they can get away with doing that to first. It’s a test. If they can do that, they’ll expand the margins of permission.

Watch this. Josh Shapiro was asked about the death penalty at tonight's PA Gov debate. Instead of dodging his changed position, like most politicians would, he raised it himself and explained how he evolved after a talk with his son. This is a skill. You don't see that often.

When you offer a bare bones, factual description of what Guilfoyle has been up to, it sounds absolutely insane. But here we are: America's government under the Trumps. People of Greece, if you are listening, we are sorry. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/stop-paper...
Here is what happened: the former girlfriend of the President’s son asked an aspiring Republican politician for $100,000 to settle her credit card bill right before her Senate confirmation for an Ambassadorship, which she seems to have been awarded as a break-up present from the Trump family. (The son has since married, with the celebrations partially financed by a Russian oligarch with ties to Putin). She had previously received $300,000 from the donor for what seem to be largely unfulfilled promises of political favors.

As Ambassador to Greece, she has been pushing other countries to do business with an oil-and-gas lobbyist who has been attending her official meetings, and suggesting that the US could bring down the Greek government any time they wanted.
