Law professor at Temple. Professional angry feminist (she/her). Views are mine, my own, my precious.
Not five minutes ago I saw a Tiktok captioned "mothers in Africa" where a mom tells her children to finish their dinner, there are children starving in America.

The AP tracked down details of some of the people killed in President Trump's military strikes on drug smugglers he describes as narco-terrorists. They were, with one exception, not high-level criminals. One was a fisherman. One was a bus driver; another a taxi driver.

If SCOTUS says trans people have to put their sex assigned at birth on their passport as a historical fact, then I get to put my birth weight on my driver's license.

My money is on Gorsuch writing because it gets a fact egregiously wrong (insisting every person is clearly and correctly identified as one of two sets at birth).

“You go to a grocery store, you have to give ID. You go to a gas station, you have to give ID.” This guy has never once bought a box of cereal or pumped his own gas. And we’re the one who are supposed to be out of touch. 🙄

One of the reasons domestic violence is so harmful is that even if they're not the target of the abuse, witnessing violence against a trusted and loved caregiver traumatizes children.

It’s good that Gorsuch has coherent, predictable principles. Bad that they’re the principles of a libertarian ski resort owner in Colarado but you win some and you lose some.

Zohran Mamdani was the first mayoral candidate and Democratic official to stand up to the Trump administration over the arrest and disappearance of Mahmoud Khalil, which he saw as a violation of the First Amendment.

I’m just a small-town political scientist, & it’s still relatively early, but it appears that The Actual Democrats did not Need To Do any of the Things or Learn any of the Obvious Lessons that Ezra Douthglesias said they Must Do & Learn.

If (knock on wood) Dems sweep Tuesday’s elections handily, can we ease discourse away from its obsession over whether Dems are too left wing to win, and take greater notice of the fact that Republicans are in a civil war over whether to be Nazis or merely lesser fascists?

Exploit The GOP's Nazi Meltdown
Are we really going to accept the conceit that the central issue in politics is whether DEMOCRATS are too extreme?

In Chicago, a woman was driving to get coffee when a DHS vehicle fleeing an angry crowd crashed into her car. Armed agents jumped out of the vehicle, yanked her door open, pulled her by the legs out of her car at gunpoint, held her incommunicado for hours, then released her with no charges.

Deeply racist, yes, but also deeply stupid. Rural counties have higher enrollments than urban ones. Some of the largest enrollment states are red ones like Louisiana, Oklahoma and West Virginia. Undocumented immigrants are ineligible. Most beneficiaries are required to work 80 hrs/month.
