there's a thing in moderate democratic politics where it is considered fundamentally illegitimate to deliver results to your own voters; instead, you must propose a better way to implement your adversaries' entire ideological program

I think it's good that the Left criticised Joe Biden for supporting genocide when he was factually supporting genocide.

Every round of this particular discourse always focuses purely on the public statements of individual politicians and never engages with the practical reality of their accomplishments and how this affects their credibility within the left flank of American politics.

Not sure what the shocked reaction is about. There have been articles written about Hezb's ability to exploit Lebanon's status as a failed state to shore up support within the Shia and even Christian communities by providing basic government services since 2008, it's not exactly a novel take.

Just checking. Did this happen out of nowhere or was it perhaps caused by a sudden avalanche of dehumanising rhetoric from some of the leading Democratic Senate candidates in the country?

A statue of former South African prime minister Jan Smuts was targeted by vandals

Updated 21 April 2025
Home Secretary Yvette Cooper has called the vandalism of several statues in Parliament Square, including one of women's votes campaigner Dame Millicent Fawcett, "disgraceful".Ch Supt Stuart Bell, who was leading the policing operation for the protest, said: "It is very disappointing to see damage to seven statues and property in the vicinity of the protest today.
"We support the public's right to protest but criminality like this is completely unacceptable."
A spokesperson for Women and Equalities Minister Bridget Phillipson, speaking on the damage to Dame Millicent's statue, said she "utterly condemns the appalling defacement of such an important national monument to the fight for women's rights"
"There is no excuse for this disgraceful criminal damage."
The Met confirmed it is also dealing with a number of complaints from the public about signs and images shared on social media that were reportedly displayed at the protest yesterday and "action will be taken if there are signs displayed that breach of the law"

Awful. Just awful. A promising young man, a high school honors grad who joined JROTC and dreamed of becoming a doctor, killed himself because of the Trump admin’s obsession with hurting Haitians and the humiliating shame of an ICE ankle monitor. His blood is on their hands.

Underneath is the caption “Pierre Damas Bel receives his high school diploma. (Family Photo/Instagram)”Bel arrived in the United States in 2024 in order to reunite with his parents, who had fled Haiti three years before. The family was granted temporary protected status, purchased a home in Springfield and settled into life in the U.S. Bel dreamed of studying medicine and graduated high school last May with honors and as a proud member of the Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps (JROTC), his father said. He was the eldest of three siblings and his family described him as smart and responsible.

The administration has been orchestrating a full-blown assault on international students in the past couple of months, which has received little media attention. Proposed $100k fee for OPT, new $103k fee on all H1Bs (not just consular apps), and now new restrictive federal guidance on CPT. Insane.
August 31, 2026

Dear members of Columbia’s international student community,

Earlier this month, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) issued advisories regarding Curricular Practical Training (CPT) for F-1 students (message on August 12 and another message on August 24). Unfortunately, this updated guidance significantly limits current and future CPT eligibility to only those engagements that are integral to the academic curriculum, required of all students in the program, and documented with a cooperative agreement.  

Our International Students and Scholars Office (ISSO), in consultation with colleagues across the University, has reviewed all potentially affected CPT authorizations and requests. All international students immediately impacted will be individually contacted by the ISSO today. The ISSO website, especially the CPT page has been updated to reflect the new guidance.

There are definitely a lot of folks who have little understanding of structural and legislative constraints, but there is also a particularly loud centrist minority keen to make excuses and rationalise the failures of Democratic leadership. I expect it to get far worse depending who win in 2029.

One of the biggest misconceptions people in the US seem to have is that legal or illegal status are not moral statuses one achieves by doing things the “proper” way, but simply legal fictions bestowed and revoked by the state at will.

The funny thing is, I can't remember any parallel controversy, or even any debate, about using the term "genocide" to refer to the campaigns against the Rohingya in 2016-2017. The government of Myanmar denied it - but there was no hand-wringing or insistence that we wait for a formal ICJ finding.

"Years of trump support came undone in 15 minutes" is a bad headline, there's no money quote in there where he actually says I don't support trump anymore. He's the same as the other guys whose wives get kidnapped by ICE, he just thinks this is a mistake, the agenda's being implemented wrong

I think the best approach for the next Dem admin will be to handle these morons like needy 3-years old and give them the "access" they so yearn for. Just jingle a bunch of keys in their DMs and make them feel special. They're too craven to understand anything else and the tradeoff is worth it.

The pivot from "Israel is our most important ally, the only democracy in the Middle East, the bedrock of Jewish identity, and it should be illegal to criticize it in any way" to "Why do Americans have any opinions about Israel??? What does that have to do with us??" is remarkable to watch.

Legal immigration as most Americans conceive of it does not meaningfully exist in the United States. "Just come here the right way" is one of the most pernicious lies in contemporary US politics, accepted across the aisle as the goal of the immigration debate when it's impossible in reality.

A report on the ground from the ICE shooting in Biddeford that should make every parent in this country lose their minds:
Cecelia Humiston, 22, lives on Chapel Street. She was asleep with her two-year-old son when she woke up to the sounds of a commotion on surrounding streets.

When she went to investigate, she saw what appeared to be a person lying on the ground on Pool Street.

She remembers hearing an older woman with a distressed family, yelling, “You took her dad, you took her dad!”

“They were with a little girl, she couldn't have been older than three,” Humiston said. “She was still in her Bluey pajamas.”

Humiston described law enforcement as “rude,” and said they barricaded family’s car from leaving. Another yelled at the little girl, who was trying to smell flowers.

It got muddled b/c it was mostly seen as incidental to getting at Trump himself, but Graham didn't just vaguely lean on Raffensperger. He told him to falsify the tally by not counting ballots. Straight-up criminal election fraud no different from telling a poll worker to go dump votes in the trash.
