For those of us who watch the WNBA this has been such a bafflingly absent part of the whole discourse. She is noticeably, actively among the worst players in the league. She was failing as a pro so needed to identify a new way to make money, and landed on attacking trans people.

It's not in the headlines because they've stopped the military-style assaults on American cities, but ICE is kidnapping more people than ever before. They're doing it by snatching people from their hearings, working with police to grab non-criminals, and using Kavanaugh stops to profile en masse.

It’s not “third-country deportation,” it’s an extraordinary rendition, complete with torture and enforced silence by the “host” country’s thugs. And it’s a direct consequence of never imposing punishment on the CIA for doing this during the War on Terror.

Witnesses say men were hooded and beaten in Equatorial Guinea. The autocratic government there is a partner in President Trump’s deportation program.

Friday morning, I was gardening when I checked my phone. A request had gone out for help. For 25+ hours, ICE had been laying siege to a quiet neighborhood in Frederick, MD. Community members were afraid, some didn’t want to leave their homes. ICE vehicles seemed to be lurking on every corner.
ICE vehicle - black Nissan Maxima with plate cover - posted up in a spot that also serves as an elementary school bus stop. Another ICE vehicle, black Dodge Durango, lurking around the community. Two more ICE vehicles - black Dodge Durango and a white SUV, unclear on make, model - on a quiet residential street, being quietly creepy. Note that the white SUV has its plate covered. Yet another ICE vehicle. Black Nissan Pathfinder. They were all over the neighborhood.

Genuinely up there with “police officers weapon was discharged in the direction of an individual”-style reporting. Just testing the bounds of passive voice within the English language.

They eliminated the CDC and now you can't eat vegetables. They eliminated climate action and now you can't breathe the air. But at least the president will be on TV tonight — hours after paying $6 million for raping E Jean Carroll — to make up election fraud stories he'd never present under oath.

Thinking about how this is tucked into the 46th paragraph (I counted) of an NYT article about whether the administration is following constitutional law. Our media is just so clearly not up to this moment.
Screenshot of article, including the phrase "Many federal judges ruled against the new interpretation, but the administration frequently ignored them."

“A whole civilization will die tonight” is the most vile thing a US president has ever said, certainly during the post-1945 era when they’ve had the power to kill civilizations with the dropping of a bomb. I’m staring into the darkness. May this not be one of the most fateful days in human history.

DAILY REMINDER: no one voted for him cause they thought he’d be good for the economy, they voted for him because they wanted concentration camps. That’s why the admin isn’t worried about the economic impacts of the latest forever war.

He was more than welcome to step to the side and have one of the many other people on stage speak about it. Making a (stunning) film about revolutionaries fighting a fascist mass deportation regime and choosing not to speak about the concentration camps on your biggest stage is a moral failure.

The same violent and bigoted ideology drove the US murder of 160+ Iranian girls at their school and the terrorist attack on the Michigan Jewish school this week. Two attack, two schools, both driven by the belief that children of other religions are not people and hold no worth.

Insane how you can just straight up see the date the tariffs kicked in. No one, and I mean NO ONE, voted for the tariff guy cause they thought he was gonna be good for the economy (???). They voted for concentration camps, and higher unemployment was a tradeoff they were willing to make.
