After an economic crash you always see headlines like What Was Everyone Thinking? What do you mean everyone, most of us are waving our arms and screaming every day, it's a handful of insanely rich assholes who aren't listening

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions "Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

Americans have been dragged, tackled, beaten, tased and shot by immigration agents. They’ve had their necks kneeled on. They’ve been held outside in the rain while in their underwear. At least three citizens were pregnant when agents detained them.

More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days.

The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did. Our tally — almost certainly incomplete — includes people who were held for days without a lawyer. And near...

EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification. I glanced down at the message. “Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began. So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies. www.lawfaremedia.org/article/anna...

News today that ICE shot a woman is chilling. The videos online show that there are some abusive, masked thugs masquerading as law enforcement. Nobody deserves this. The courts need to step in.

So am I reading this court decision correctly? We now have 50 micronations with their own laws interpreting the U.S. Constitution wholly separate from one another? But there's one guy with private law enforcement who is immune from all punishment who can do whatever he wants in those 50 states?

A CDC simulation model projected that insurance expansions could lead to approximately 63,000 fewer strokes and 95,000 fewer deaths from heart disease by 2050. If you want to deal with chronic disease, you have to cover effective treatments, not blame patients. www.cdc.gov/pcd/issues/2...

Most children don’t have any dolls. Toys are already expensive. At work we do a toy drive every year around Christmas for a local charity that supports new, struggling, and teen mothers. I worry how much we’ll be able to help this year. I remind myself that every little bit matters, so we’ll try.

People are NOT understanding what empty cargo ships from China means. It means no work for dock workers. No work for truck drivers, no work for retailers, fewer dollars circulating. The cascade effect is just mind boggling.

A crowd of people gathered today outside a Milwaukee courthouse today for an emergency protest to support Judge Hannah Dugan after her arrest. She has since been released. Keep ICE away from our independent judiciary and demand due process for everyone!

FDA does so much more and this is a huge blow that was unfortunately expected to come with this administration. I work in food safety (manufacturing and transportation). Eyes open FSQ teams. We need to maintain standards and work with a high level of scrutiny during audits and inspections.

Wonder why Elon is so invested in the April Wisconsin Supreme Court race? This is why: he cannot have dealerships in WI. So he’s suing the state. He wants Brad Schimel elected so he can win his case. Keep Musk and his Swasticars dealerships out of Wisconsin. www.wpr.org/news/tesla-w...

The battle of our day is no longer about Democrats versus Republicans or left versus right. The choice right now is democracy or dictatorship. And we're sliding faster than I ever thought possible into the latter. Everyone must choose which side they’re on. Now.
