Trying and failing to torture Christa Pike to death is what the death penalty in practice is all about because it's not about deterrence or public safety, it's about hurting someone because the state decides they deserve it

ICE has notified me that another person has died in their custody. This is the 58th death under ICE’s watch since Trump returned to office. That’s 58 too many. We need to dismantle ICE, eliminate private, for-profit detention centers, and reform our broken immigration system.

The Trump Administration let a contract to represent children with an experienced immigration network of lawyers lapse in July 2026. It is trying to award a no-bid contract for 158 million for further representation to a human trafficking organization with no lawyers, abcnews.com/US/democrats....

It's good that we invented things like "government" and "the economy" but we can't meaningfully participate in them if the people in charge are constantly rubbing in our faces that these things are fake, and in fact you are a naive doofus if you think otherwise. That's a society on life support

The government moving or hiding jailed people to avoid review by courts isn't some loophole in our habeas corpus rights. This government behavior has been considered a violation of the people's habeas corpus rights since at least the Habeas Corpus Act of 1679. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Habeas_...
Jailors were forbidden to move prisoners from one prison to another or out of the country to evade the writ. In case of disobedience jailers would be punished with severe fines which had to be paid to the prisoner.[5][6]

I was deputy M.E. at the WSJ when Murdoch took over, with a similar “editorial independence board.” Within 4 months, our top editor was gone, replaced by a loyal Murdoch deputy. That board raised a quivering objection, but the deed was done. If the Ellisons own CNN, they’ll do whatever they want.

American Samoans are nationals, but not citizens. Do you know what this distinction means? Neither did they, and the result was they were prosecuted for voting in a local AK election. The good news is that the prosecutions were dropped, but when you hear about voter fraud, its often cases like this.
