DOJ's recent 6th Circuit filing misspelled:

And, it included a non-party in the caption.
These are the people who want access to your sensitive voting records and who my team fights in court every day.

My friend Γzge Kul is back in the U.S. this month, she does really cool work combining Japanese and Turkish motifs.
These guys were selling t-shirts until they needed a war to cover up the intentional damage they did to the economy and the president's involvement in a pedophilia scandal.
Today's hearing just started. Tune in to the conversation here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pd4E...
the consolidation of major media institutions by the presidentβs oligarch friends is obviously bad, but i do wonder about the ultimate impact. it is clear that trump and his allies believe that you can buy up media and pull an orban or a putin. butβ¦
Cover of book with text in yellow reading: The Firearm Revolution: From Renaissance Italy to the European Empires, overlaid on an image of an angel in seventeenth-century dress with wings and a long gun.
Hello Bluesky! My new book, THE FIREARM REVOLUTION, is out on 14 April. Itβs about how a new technology changed society, and how hard it was to control. Hereβs a little thread of whatβs inside:
white voters get their legitimate concerns addressed, non-white voters are pandered to. it's an irregular verb.
Best response to our study yet: The nativist equation is: Not hearing Spanish > infinite $$.
ICE just crashed a car at my intersection (due to their own shitty driving) and immediately got out and tear gassed observers.
Whatever is in the Epstein Files is so explosive that the leaders of the Department of Justice are openly breaking the law every day to keep us from seeing it. (Just a reminder amongst all the other stuff flying around.)
This sounds killer, adding to my afternoon playlist!

I have some terrible news for my haters
Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.
Similarly, if I were in Dutch parliament, I would be pushing for a measure to arrest any ICE agent who comes to Europe for holiday on suspicions of crimes against humanity.
once again shoutout to every dipshit who insisted it was hysterical to talk about trump and white supremacy in the same breath www.rawstory.com/trump-267487...
Jesus. CNN reporter just mentioned that the shooting site in Minneapolis is four blocks from where George Floyd was murdered.
The House passing an anti-trans medical bill yesterday and the Department of Health and Human Services announcing new rules for gender affirming care for youth means that a tough year for trans people ends on an even more difficult note.
Homeland security twitter screenshot - βall America wants for Christmas is remigrationβ
As a person who has been studying extreme far right ideologies for the last decade (and did a PhD on immigration) I find the entrance of βremigrationβ into the mainstream American political lexicon so profoundly disturbing
THIS is what makes my head spin: The president is not a moral figure in any idiom, any land, any culture, any subculture. I'm not talking about the liberal enlightenment that would make him want the country to take care of the poor and sick. I mean he has no Republican values either. He has no honor among thieves, no cosa nostra loyalty, no Southern code against cheating or lying, none of the openness of New York, rectitude of Boston, expressiveness and kindness of California, no evangelical family values, no Protestant work ethic. No Catholic moral seriousness, no sense of contrition or gratitude. No Jewish moral and intellectual precision, sense of history. He doesn't care about the life of the mind OR the life of the senses. He is not mandarin, not committed to inquiry or justice, not hospitable. He is not proper. He is not a bon vivant who loves to eat, drink, laugh. There's nothing he would die for - not American values, obviously, but not the land of Russia or his wife or young
son. He has some hollow success creeds from Norman Vincent Peale, but Peale was obsessed with fair-dealing and a Presbyterian pastor; Trump has no fairness or piety. He's not sentimental; no affection for dogs or babies. No love for mothers, "the common man"" veterans. He has no sense of military valor, and is openly a coward about war. He would have sorely lacked the pagan beauty and capacity to fight required in ancient Greece. He doesn't care about his wife or wives; he is a philanderer but he's not a romantic hero with great love for women and sex. He commands loyalty and labor from his children not because he loves them, even; he seems almost to hate them β and if one of them slipped it would be terrifying. He does no philanthropy. He doesn't - in a more secular key - even seem to have a sense of his enlightened self-interest enough to shake Angela Merkel's hand. Doesn't even affect a love for the arts, like most rich New Yorkers. He doesn't live and die by aesthetics and health practices like some fascists; he's
very ugly and barely mammalian. Am I missing an obscure moral system to which he so much as nods? Also are there other people, living or dead, like him?
Virginia Heffernan wrote this shortly after the 2016 election and it still holds true
so if you personally pay donald trump you get a fast track to a green card
This is identical to Russia invading Ukraine. Illegally invading a country for their resources and likely killing thousandsβif not moreβis immoral and should not be supported by anyone with any shred of moral conscience.
Zohran picked γεθγ("excellent orchid") for his first name andγε€Έζ’
γ("brilliant plum") for his middle name.
The orchid and the plum are among "The Four Noble Ones" in traditional Chinese art, the former symbolizing an indifference to fame and fortune, the latter an indomitable, incorruptible spirit.
This isn't a closing election argument, it's Vidkun Quisling explaining why surrender is better than resistance.
