Absolutely brilliant satire. "These “Guess Stops” will be staffed by special agents known as Guess Stop Officers, or “Guess-Stop-O” for short. The Guess-Stop-O will make crime disappear by making undesirable people disappear."

All those Trump surrogates who touted this, and news orgs that reported it credulously, owe Americans a big fat apology www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

More attention here please.

My God, we're just going to let these gestapo thugs get away with everything. Lawyers should not be allowed anonymity.

My interview with Choice about my book Remembering Conquest. @uncpress.bsky.social www.choice360.org/tie-post/tie...

I really enjoyed speaking with Kate Carpenter of @draftingthepast.bsky.social about my writing routine, engineering background, & latest book. I was honored to be interviewed since it is one my favorite podcast. @uncpress.bsky.social

It’s great to read a fabulous review of Remembering Conquest in Public Books. www.publicbooks.org/borders-may-...

@schumer.senate.gov @fetterman.senate.gov what about this 👇👇👇

NEW: I heard from a *bunch* of federal employees tonight with more backbone that Chuck Schumer. Spread the word! "Shutdowns suck, but what we’re experiencing is something much much worse and now is the moment to stand against it or you’re abdicating your duty as an elected official.”

Matamoros honors Catarino Garza with a monument near Gateway International Bridge.

The House is considering cutting up to $880 billion dollars from Medicaid. This would have a catastrophic impact on people with disabilities. Congress needs to keep their hands off Medicaid.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

But her emails … www.nytimes.com/2025/02/05/u...

I had a great conversation about my book, Remembering Conquest, with Dr. Elena Foulis.

NEW: Archived tweets for Gavin Kriger, Musk's 20-something DOGE employee wreaking havoc inside USAID, shows that Kriger has retweeted multiple neo-Nazis including Nick Fuentes, leader of the so-called Groyper movement, and another popular explicit Nazi account recently unmasked by @travisbrown.dev

My op-ed on mass deportations www.expressnews.com/opinion/comm...

"The AHA's carefully researched American Lesson Plan thoroughly refutes the executive order’s cynical & unsubstantiated depiction of the landscape of American education." Read Exec director @jgrossman.bsky.social's commentary on the “Executive Order Ending Radical Indoctrination in K–12 Schooling” 🗃️

Apropros of nothing, I’m reupping my @theemancipator.org article arguing that the so-called “anti-DEI movement” is a segregationist movement, and journalists should state this clearly. There is no need to help evil by adopting their language. theemancipator.org/2025/01/28/t...

the first fatal commercial plane crash in 16 years happened just days after Trump froze hiring of air traffic controllers that were already stretched thin

Another pardoned January 6th insurrectionist has been charged with a crime. Who would have predicted that criminals released from jail would commit more crimes? www.houstonpublicmedia.org/articles/new...

He emptied the jails of those Jan 6th criminals

😔

Insanity: The deportation flights Trump used military jets for—that Mexico refused to accept—cost the U.S. up to $852,000 per flight to attempt to deport just 80 migrants at a time. To compare, flights directly chartered by Immigration and Customs Enforcement cost just $8,577.

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it. “When a prison camp opens in your town…when a DREAMer is disappeared from your classroom…when the President destroys what’s left of the Constitution…They will all say they didn’t know this was coming. And I want the American people to know that they did.” AOC 🔥🎯

I expect all those police unions who endorsed him to denounce these pardons … but I won’t hold my breath.

Republicans don’t believe in law & order if they support these pardons www.nytimes.com/2025/01/21/u...

Things citizens can do to help our more vulnerable community members.

2/ fatal brain hemorrhage and causing the suicides of a handful more? GOP leaders are already running scared on this and afraid to talk about it. Get on the floor. Get in camera. Not complicated.

“We just released the leaders of two terrorist organizations,” a counterterrorism expert and senior Trump DHS official told me. “In the name of politics, we have just released violent criminals out onto our streets.”
