NEW: GOP Gov nominee Victor Marx says he'll respond today to domestic violence allegations - video/audio where he describes slamming his wife into a door and throwing his toddler across a room. Voters/reporters new to Marx may not realize he has a long history of justifying violence.

You know in kids' media, where the villains are like "I love being mean! I hate smiles and laughter! I like things that are bad and ugly!" and you're like well that's fine for little kids but when they get a bit older and start reading YA they'll realize villains can actually be complex? Welp.

Chicagoland friends, I have a favor to ask. I have a pro bono client, a Black woman, who is currently facing charges for allegedly pointing a gun at her abusive ex - who admitted to raping her. I would love if there could be a show of support for her at her next few court dates.

This is a dreadful argument from Burnham. Empirically false - almost 6m people were granted settled status; about 4m are currently resident. More importantly panders to racism/xenophobia, and directly contradicts argument made in his speech about migrant contributions.

The tortuous, botched execution of Christa Pike is truly horrifying. And while it feels unique in some ways, in reality it is also only the latest in a history of botched executions going back years — YEARS — in numerous states. Please know: this is the reality of the death penalty in this country.

Do the men in the group chat like each other, I wonder-these men expressing such unmistakable, unrestrained glee as they stain their souls forever and ruin their classmate's life. I can't decide whether they're more odious if the answer is yes or if it's no, but I can't dismiss the question as unimportant, either. These fraternities that the public rarely hears about, except when their members kill or rape: do they foster the bonds of friendship or just cheaply mimic them? When some ex-frat boy needs a lawyer or an introduction to a senator later in his life, when that boy digs through the network of other boys for a hookup, what is the nature of the bond he's leaning on? I want to diagnose it. I'm the naive fool who believes that in diagnosing it, I can cure us all of it.

Wilber Rafael Garces Perez was shot by ICE 10 days ago. The bullet is still lodged in his back. He’s been forced to sleep on the floor and hasn’t been given medication, according to his attorney. Now DHS is claiming he assaulted an agent. Can we trust anything DHS says given its track record?

The beauty of being alive in a world with other people is that we largely have no idea what we can do to satisfy the desires that drive us and we only get a taste of that satisfaction through chance encounters. Expressing desires semiotically to a machine will never result in what we *really wanted*

The formatting of this Beckett quote does still represent resilience and determination, just of a very different sort.
A neon light art piece of Samuel Beckett's famous quote "I can't go on. I'll go on" but spaced - it would seem inadvertently- so that it reads "I can't goon. I'll goon".

Tyler Hack, executive director of the Christopher Street Project, a transgender advocacy group, said Spanberger showed the way because she took on the issue head- on "but also didn't throw anyone under the bus." The Human Rights Campaign cited Spanberger's response in its guidance for 2026 candidates, which in part urges them to

"address concerns directly."

Gone are the mass raids and militarized metro operations. Gone are the pomp and pageantry. But ICE arrests have hit record levels. ICE operations are no longer concentrated in large American cities. Immigration enforcement officials are also working in suburban and rural areas, all across the US.
