The Washington Post's description of the bodycam video of his arrest last year, and the translation of Mr. Shah Alam's comments, is gutting. Remember, he was entirely blind in one eye and could only see three feet in the other, and he spoke virtually no English. He spent a year in jail for this.

Latest update from Columbia prez re: the abduction of their student this morning. DHS is fucking deranged. “The agents gained entry by stating they were police searching for a missing child. Our security cameras captured the agents in the hallway showing pictures of the alleged missing child.”

House Republicans desperately search for a woman they can blame.

people say Ds have no core commitments and no courage, but it's just not true. These few brave centrists will fight to the death, crawl over broken glass and spit in the face of every of their constituents to vote to confirm Trump nominees.

fine, i will buy the warner brothers discovery

Tricky thing about old people, they get shorter as they age, but their arms are just as long as they always were. Watch your six.

People are always like what’s something you miss from the past and one of mine is antitrust laws

This is such a well done piece that reports out, with hard data and interviews, something profound about what's gone wrong in this country. www.wsj.com/us-news/amer...

Marcelo Gomes, the MA high school student arrested by ICE on his way to volleyball practice, was a guest at SOTU. DHS threatened him by name, so he was forced to leave. Shame on them for continuing to harass him. At 19, he has so much more character than the MAGA fascists threatening him.

Aliya Rahman is a U.S. citizen who was violently arrested by federal immigration in Minneapolis. She attended the State of the Union address Tuesday as a guest of Congressmember Ilhan Omar, but she was ejected from the chamber after silently standing during President Trump's speech.

oh no

This is what should happen if you honk at a pedestrian in a crosswalk or creep forward while they're crossing

The cruelty is the point as ever

Welp, never buying Nature Made again. Many of their supplements list "color added," but don't list specific ingredients. I sent a polite message saying it's great that they don't use artificial dyes, but do any of these products contain annatto (a loved one is allergic)? Their response:

I think one of the things that every technologist needs to ask themselves is "What would the worst person on earth do with this thing I'm building given enough money to take it over". Often people are optimistic about the best uses and lack pessimism for the worst. (why I have a job in security)

Hi all, if you’re in the Weymouth, MA / South Short area, please keep and eye out for this man. He is my colleague’s brother and has been missing since Monday morning. Please reach out to the Weymouth Police if you have any information at 781-335-1212. Cc @universalhub.com

Trump: "I believe the tariffs, paid for by foreign countries, will like in the past substantially replace the modern day system of income tax, taking a great financial burden off the people that I love"

According to a peaceful protestor, a DHS agent told them, "If you keep coming to things like this, you’re going to be on a domestic terrorist watchlist. Then we’re going to come to your house later tonight.” DHS must answer for its grotesque intimidation and surveillance tactics.

New essay by me on the history of typhoid fever in NYC featuring civil engineers, a cross-dressing LGBTQ icon 🏳️‍🌈, and the public health reasons why police should not stalk immigrant women.

"Why do ladies love gay smut" is probably an easier question to ask than "why has Hollywood ignored this potential highly lucrative market for so long," because one puts the onus on those wacky horny ladies and the other puts the onus on people paid millions to know this stuff

You cannot imagine the nightmares happening in there. That's why these facilities say they 'need' prior notice before inspection. It's going to break people's brains when we find out all that was happening. And all because Chuck gave them your tax money

Literally no one should be listening to anything this guy says. He is not "culturally normal". He came from wealth & extreme privilege. He isn't any more capable than the average person, and his experience comes from being able to do and get away with whatever the fuck he wants. Sound familiar?

Sometimes the author’s name is a little too on the nose.

I’m sorry please correct me if I’m insane and wrong… but is this newsom saying he “fell prey” to not being “culturally normal” because he was supportive of same sex marriage?

This guy gets it.
