BREAKING

Former ICE agent:

On my first day training new cadets, I received secretive orders to teach them to violate the Constitution by entering homes without a judicial warrant.

The Senate bill is rooted in the idea that we just need to get BP/ICE "back to" only terrorizing people we deem worthy of being terrorized, and not White people. The exact problematic understanding people have been trying to warn against... While a lot of White people insisted that concern was silly

To describe the current state of the world as a daily show of deepening horrors is a massive understatement.

However, I read something today that I think more people should see and read.

I hope she doesn't mind my me sharing it here.

Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare.

Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Streetโ€™s greed.

Getting big money out of politics.

Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages.

If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.

People will tell you that they view property destruction as equivalent to violence against a person, but that's not true. They think property destruction is worse

Yes and also there is inherent value in just stating your objection, in public, for the record. Staying quiet and in hiding gives the impression to those in power that you consent to this, even if you donโ€™t.

Or any year since 1996 where they internalized the wrong lesson when they won a 3 way race. One could argue they havenโ€™t learned any valuable lessons since 1980.

The New York Times headline writers now call groups like the AMA and the College of Physicians and Surgeons "pro-vaccine groups." They get more preposterous with each passing day.

I love reading serious stories about guys who believe AGI is real, it feels like a bunch of millionaires plotting to find and capture Santa Claus

The Overton Window has shifted all the way to ban all non-white people from coming to America. It was never about illegal immigration.

This is the same thing the fascists did for other cities during BLM. Same playbook, because itโ€™s the one the media wants to tell because it gets views and this advertising dollars. Outrage economy just keeps printing money, amplifying how much conservatives fear everything.

I find itโ€™s mostly boilerplate code, or improved autocomplete. Itโ€™s also helpful for finding code conflicts if the code gets bulky enough, but this is really only a problem when Iโ€™m doing a massive refactor, and in a stable product thatโ€™s a lot more rare.

NEW: Minnesotaโ€™s graduation rate just reached the highest level on record.

Two years ago, we made the single-largest investment in public schools in state history.

Today, weโ€™re seeing the results.

It's tough to refer to someone as a criminal if you've given them no due process to determine whether they're a criminal. Like if you get arrested and get a trial and are convicted of 34 felony counts. That's due process. You can call that guy a criminal.

Pediatricians say that childhood vaccines are safe. A heroin-addled nepo baby with a brain worm says they may not be. For busy voters, it can be hard to know who to believe.

I can't emphasize enough that the most important thing journalists can do right now is publish exactly this kind of article

The image is a screenshot of a post on X by a user named Chicano Marine (@elchicanomarine
), with Mexican and U.S. flag emojis. The post reads: "Ahhโ€ฆ WE have hit the disappearing Union leaders phase of authoritarianism." Below this, there is an image with the text: "ICE detains farmworker union leader Lelo Juarez Zeferino." The image shows a person in a denim shirt against a background split between blue and yellow colors.

Our immigration policies should not be wielded as union busting, political cudgels. Or as ways to suppress freedom of speech or assembly.
