[weakly] you can't "deport" a citizen, that is definitionally abduction

These are blatant, widespread violations of the 5th and 14th Amendments. These concentration camps are monstrous and must be shut down. The Feds are killing people there Intentionally with force and through medical neglect and unsanitary, dangerous conditions.

One reason Matthew MacFadyen is so good in Succession is that he really captures that combo of suck-up and bully, along with moral interference, in a coherent character.

Five years ago tomorrow in the Daily Nation of Nairobi, Kenya.

What are you proud of today?

We did not properly punish the confederates. We did not properly punish the insurrectionists on January 6th. We have to punish ICE. They can’t be allowed to slink back into their communities quietly. Expose them. Arrest them. Convict them. Imprison them.

We all know that the real reason is because every city recalled CHESA right?

😂

Very important, re: Trump

From me: Chuck Schumer's legislative demands for DHS funding are so narrow they almost mirror what ICE/CBP have just announced in Minneapolis. Just as Republicans were conceding the need to negotiate, Democrats pre-negotiated themselves into mush. prospect.org/2026/01/29/c...

ICYMI, I wrote about this very thing www.thenewworld.co.uk/matt-muir-do...

Federal agents can drive their giant SUVs with abandon, using them as weapons, yet if a person kicks one it will be used as a post-hoc pretext to justify their murder.

i honestly do not believe that people hate that guy enough. an evil man.

remember what JD Vance said of the ICE agents that arrested this little boy: “what did you expect them to do?”

Why is this mids seller deciding policy

Even under SCOTUS's dubious reasoning in Trump v. U.S., there is no scenario in which maneuvering billions of dollars to an offshore account to keep it out of reach from Congress and courts is an "official act." This is all criminal and impeachable.

The biggest difference is that under Harris maybe this would have been less ham-handed and thuggish such that you could continue to ignore it as you did under Biden and Obama.

This is why I have real fucking problem with blithe criticisms of "polarization" or "congressional dysfunction." We have a Republican member blaming his colleague for being attacked. The problem isn't polarization or dysfunction. It's the Republican Party.

This is interesting. I hadn't considered this

we lost a real one today. rip lobster lady

They have advance notice. They can do this. Or they can tweet “don’t take the bait, grocery prices!” and then go hide under their covers hoping nobody on the ground does anything remotely violent.

Bruh they have hundreds of scheduled tweets and press releases that they focus grouped to DEATH all summer they are gonna go with what they spent the money on lol

Lotta folks will say "we won't forget their names" but he, knowing he is an American music icon, PUT THEIR FULL NAMES IN A BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN SONG which is actually the most anyone has done thus far to preserve those names for history. And some guy sittin on his lil computer is like "meh cringe"

This is great, I bet this is the kind of thing I’ll post that everyone can be trusted to be cool about when I’m not around

This is a guy who got in a feud with Andrew and Tristan Tate and THEY came out looking better than he did. Truly gutter material.

Wow I can’t believe that comedy is legal again

10:30pm on a Wednesday night and like half the timeline is posting (Det.) Hole.

They really have no fucking idea what is coming. No fucking idea.

I cannot stress how completely bizarre & unheard of it is for the DNI to be personally present for a search warrant execution, never mind this one.

Wow I love this website

Walmart Mike, boy, I dunno

An entire community of thousands, here legally, having been demonized with deranged lies about eating pets, is about to be arbitrarily DECLARED illegal so they can be forcibly ethnically cleansed. I don’t want to hear one more fucking word about comparisons to Nazi Germany being overwrought.

I will simply never recover from reading this sentence: "Since Georgia implemented work requirements in 2020, they have spent twice as much on Deloitte consultants and administrative costs as on healthcare for people."

Wow, I guess the best protest song of the 21st century is not going to be by the J6 Chorus

honestly “whiskey friday with tony dokoupil” is the only half decent idea that has come out of bari weiss’s CBS so far

Read these instead -- they are better in every way. Better construction, better craft, better prose, better moral clarity.

@abonisaenz.bsky.social bsky.app/profile/anth... anyone at Minnesota law going to call him out

@charlottegarden.bsky.social bsky.app/profile/anth... is anyone at Minnesota law ever going to call out wurman?

Ilan Wurman's anti-birthright citizenship Supreme Court amicus. I won't mince words. He bastardizes the common law. It is a methodologically bankrupt approach to the history of Anglo-American constitutionalism. It is little more than preening to gain someone's favor, but certainly not a scholar's.

I don’t know what I would do if I was a umn law professor and he was my colleague, because academic freedom does matter, but I certainly might call him out as a fraud by name.

there was a brief window in which it was financially feasible to purchase enough RAM to run Chrome and that time has passed

Okay but what if we didn’t? (and/or what if ChatGPT didn’t tell Matt about them, which is basically the same thing come to think of it.)

Dude spends 80% of his time fighting excessive wokeness, which he can neither measure nor define.

"HERE'S HOW TO THINK ABOUT IT: WE ARE THE BEST CAPITALIZED MEDIA START-UP IN THE WORLD." does bari know shes at cbs also why all caps its like she goes out of her way to be an asshole

Excellent by Adam Serwer. I’d add: How many pseudo-deep commentators, typically MAGA-excusing, go on about liberalism’s lack of community, character, and moral virtue? Then MN features a truly striking demonstration of just these qualities by modern liberals. Reaction: crickets.
