Sandwich man leaving court

Talked with the @discourseblog.com buds on Friday about elections tomorrow and beyond www.discourseblog.com/p/discourse-...

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day. certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Surprise Crutchfield sisters record means we’re getting six more weeks of fall

The Trump administration has denied it canceled what would’ve been one of the largest solar projects in the U.S. I stand by my reporting, as I was first to break the cancelation. A quick thread about why…

Michigan Avenue right now.

Over 2 million people across Italy have rallied in more than 100 cities for a one-day general strike.

ICE just gassed a group a civilians near the Rico Fresh supermarket intersection on Armitage in Chicago - bystanders say this was in response for being heckled from the street.

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador. Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

Seeing how @sbworkersunited.org seamlessly connects right-wing culture-warring to workplace safety & the need for a fighting American labor movement like this underscores just how poorly most incumbent unions have met this moment despite having more $ and influence: www.fingers.email/upgrade?offe...

Surreal moment for America. Needless to say, if the normal police ever pulled something like this — pulling every single person out of an apartment building and handcuffing them to run warrant checks — they would be sued into oblivion. Yet ICE is going to get away with it entirely.

JUST IN: A U.S. citizen from Alabama who has been detained twice by ICE while working at a construction site, has filed a class action suit claiming ICE's broad warrantless arrest powers violate the constitution. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

I'll take the bullheaded, deeply flawed, 1990s quest for authenticity and cultivating a core which you shouldn't sell out over this any day. Any day.

Man why is this guy a billionaire and not a heel wrestling manager. This is humiliating for the rest of us

Ezra Klein keeps saying that "politics is about winning power" and Democrats have "gotten way out of step with the public" on immigration and trans kids in sports but he is blind to the fact that to win power you have to convince people you have the right position, not cede to the other side

Finally listened to the Coates/Klein thing and thought this was pretty funny

the president of the united states wants to use the american military to kill american citizens on american soil. that's the whole story!

god dammit www.welcometohellworld.com/life-is-a-pr...

National Lawyers Guild of Chicago is a very reliable source with numerous legal observers at protests and meticulous note taking and info gathering. This is how they say things seemed different Saturday at Broadview ICE detention center.

a lot of good writers out there, but Kaleb Horton was truly gifted. what a terrible loss

I started blogging again. I’m going to be doing some writing about politics, corporate power, and labor and probably some personal essays and music criticism too. First post is up, about Tom Homan and the golden age of graft. power-and-light.ghost.io/its-a-great-...

The UN has broken through Israel’s ban on data collection & declared famine (for 1st time in the ME) Palestinians in Gaza-including Lujayn in @thenation.com -have been documenting this reality for months www.thenation.com/article/worl... Thanks to @jackmirkinson.bsky.social for publishing this

they desperately want footage of soldiers shooting americans

That's crazy I was just circulating my own memo about a blacklist of words Democrats shouldn't use

The only thing the government spends money on now is this shit, AI and powering AI, and contracts for Deloitte to create blood oaths for Medicaid recipients

ICE used your taxpayer dollars to trick out a bunch of trucks in new livery, all painted black with "ICE" and a logo printed in gold on the side (and Trump's name in gold on the back window), then shoot a rap video in DC to post on social media. I am not making this up.

“A possible immigration raid at a farm in Ventura County escalated on Thursday afternoon when agents began firing tear gas on a crowd that had started to gather by the operation.”

oh man wait until they hear about what William F. Buckley Jr. considered a prank

"The Justice Department is aggressively prioritizing efforts to strip some Americans of their U.S. citizenship...At least one person has already been denaturalized...June 13, a judge ordered the revocation of the citizenship of Elliott Duke, who uses they/them pronouns." www.npr.org/2025/06/30/n...

NEW: Palantir threatened to call police on @wired.com reporter @carolinehaskins.bsky.social and kicked out other journalists from a recent conference following reports of the data analytics firm's work with the Trump administration. @carolinehaskins.bsky.social reports www.wired.com/story/palant...

Normandy, the western border of Germany

Ron DeSantis stranded drivers at a bridge with no warning just to stop rainbow colors from appearing on it.

🚨 The Bukele regime has arrested Ruth Eleonora López, a prominent human rights defender and the head of the anti-corruption and justice unit at Cristosal, a leading Salvadoran human rights organization. Cristosal has denounced her detention as an enforced disappearance.

Amid all the other news, it's easy to become inured to the basic facts here. Öztürk: -Is not accused of committing any crime -Is nonviolent -Was in this country legally -Merely engaged in speech that the administration objects to -Has been locked up for six weeks

one of the tasks of the American left is to explain to retail and service workers that this is the future that America has planned for them

this is a staggering amount of money to build camps—suggesting that building & running a gulag will be the primary function of the otherwise gutted Trump-state in last fiscal yr: "D.H.S. allocated about $3.4 billion for the entire custody operation overseen by ICE" www.nytimes.com/2025/04/07/u...

not to mention the end of reconstruction and the historical peak of post-slavery white supremacist terror

The worst thing the federal government has done to unions in my lifetime happened last night. The second worst thing was three weeks ago. The labor movement will either protect ourselves right now or be smashed. That's all there is to it. www.hamiltonnolan.com/p/they-are-g...

Pikachu was spotted amongst anti-Erdoğan protesters fleeing from police in Antalya, Turkey last night.

Wrote for @discourseblog.com about Paul Weiss and the benefits of complicity. www.discourseblog.com/p/dont-cry-f...

It's clear that the Trump administration denied due process to the migrants it banished to El Salvador *precisely because* any measure of judicial oversight would've proved their innocence immediately. Deported, imprisoned, and condemned to hard labor—for a soccer tattoo. slate.com/news-and-pol...

Amid threats from Meta and Elon, DE lawmakers are set to pass a law restricting shareholder claims at the country's most powerful business courts: the sorts of cases that have "resulted in saving billions of dollars for pension funds and ordinary investors." substack.perfectunion.us/p/elon-musk-...

CSI Aviation makes hundreds of millions of dollars chartering flights for ICE for 'removal' of undocumented people. The CEO of CSI Aviation donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to the Trump campaign and RNC. Meh, must be a coincidence.
