Public defender. Movies/TV/figure skating/dumb celeb stuff. I usually like things I don’t hate.

Given that there is not likely to be a national, bipartisan demand for accountability in the wake of Trump — the major distinction with Nixon — any accountability, civil or criminal, will be a partisan and political project that I think should be pursued as vigorously as possible.

I've been immersed in research on Reconstruction in Lousiana and it's a very difficult truth to absorb that the white terrorist movement in the South was among the most successful terrorist movements in global history. Took 10 years but it won a total & complete victory through murder and atrocity.

The narrative that Americans are divided on abortion is a lie to hide just how undemocratic bans are—and convince lawmakers to take weaker stances on abortion. ~70% of Deep South voters oppose abortion bans. I wrote about the implications of this:

Poll: 70% of Deep South Voters Oppose Abortion Bans
Plus, Deep South voters are the least likely to say that abortion should never be permitted.

Death of a handyman: ICE cited “convictions for driving with expired vehicle registration” and an unspecified judgment against him in favor of the Maryland comptroller. The 47-year-old Curo-Churata "had volunteered to leave the country on his own, but a judge denied the request."

Julián Curo-Churata lived in Laurel for about 17 years before he was detained in June by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents. He died in the agency’s custody on Sept. 29.

you have a maniac who sees nonwhite kids at a Texas game and loses his mind, and you have the entire architecture of the American Right (notably, excluding numerous members of the GOP who might have to get votes someday) giving it full voice because they firmly believe that these views are *good*.

I'm writing something about this but a major flaw of the right-wing movement is the clear and obvious belief that racism, homophobia and misogyny are *correct*, but unpopular. so the most "forbidden" voices are obviously *right*, but voters aren't ready for it yet. This whole thing is an example.

In 11 career postseason outings, Yoshinobu Yamamoto is 8-1 with a 2.14 ERA and 0.83 WHIP. He’s struck out 58 batters and walked just 13 in 63 innings. He’s a machine.

Just a reminder: Tillis persuaded the woman Hegseth allegedly raped to come forward with her story, and told her that if she did, it would sink the nomination. She did. At great risk to herself. Tillis then cast the deciding vote for Hegseth. Because he’s a goddamned coward.

not that you should expect anything more than rank idiocy from this pair of racists, but the idea that whiteness means a "high trust" society of "social cohesion" is some of the stupidest shit i have ever heard. these people live in a fantasy land that you could dispel by simply opening a book.

If you've willingly consumed alcohol, a NY law makes it extraordinarily difficult to prove that you were unable to consent to sex. That includes situations where a victim is slurring words or falling down. Advocates say the law was critical in a DA's decision to decline prosecution at Cornell.
