Okay. That made me laugh. Lol

Murder.

This man has never taken the Amtrak

Honestly. I respect the hustle on this one.

Every story I read about the revocation of TPS for Haitians makes me shake with rage. I am no longer surprised at the cruelty of this regime, but it is deeply shameful that our country is doing this. This is simply ethnic cleansing.

Venezuelan oil has the highest average methane intensity among oil and gas producers globally — its operations are the most wasteful and polluting, losing more gas than the entire nation of Ireland consumes in a year. https://ow.ly/acGH50Y4UUw

Everyone should read every last line of Judge Biery's ruling

"It may take time to prove you're right, but you have to stick to it." - Fred Korematsu Jailed for refusing to abide by FDR's Exec Order 9066, he took his case against internment all the way to the Supreme Court - and lost. Remember him on Korematsu Day, January 30th. 1/

This year, even more so than other years, we should remember Fred Korematsu.

🗃️ State & local jurisdictions cannot defy federal law but neither can the federal govt order them to enforce every aspect of that law. For some origins of this ongoing tension in immigration federalism, rooted in the history of American slavery, here is a 🧵 on Prigg v. Pennsylvania (1842) 🧵 1/10

This is the legacy of ICE. This is Trump's legacy. This is also what American society voted for. We need to take a hard look at ourselves. www.wfaa.com/article/news...

One of mankind's greatest achievements. If not the greatest.

Our country was founded on resistance to a tyrant.

For those of you wondering how to help those in Minneapolis St Paul, an excellent list of resources is here, including both food support and legal assistance groups. mspmag.com/arts-and-cul...

The mom who we all saw turning the wheel and trying to drive away was actually a domestic terrorist trying to run over a poor ICE agent, and now the nurse who we all saw coming to the aid of another ICE victim was actually a deranged shooter who had to be taken down.

ICE will repeatedly execute nonviolent protesters in the streets and call it insurrection

Goes to show that these people are truly idiots. There are commentaries twisting themselves backward trying to tease out a worldview or a grand strategy. No, they are simply stupid. They should be treated accordingly.

Our reporting has found that ICE sent 600 immigrant kids to detention in federal shelters in 2025. A 17-year-old was detained at a traffic stop because officers couldn’t make contact with his dad, who is deaf. Another kid ended up in a shelter after making a wrong turn:

I'm excited to announce I'm doing a new Bloomberg column about the business of fashion. The first column is about how we can re-shore US garment manufacturing. Instead of mass deportations and raising tariffs, I argue the government should move the industry upstream: tinyurl.com/reshoringapparel

Every Stephen Miller tantrum and DHS recruitment ad speaks in these existential terms about "defending your culture" to elide the fact that they need people with the courage to wear a mask while interrogating a sixth grader

The "worst problem you've never heard of" is the leading cause of Black land loss in this country. Over the years, it's seen Black families stripped of hundreds of billions of dollars in land. It's called "heirs' property." From the ProPublica archives:

The US is collapsing into fascism and going to war with Europe and the opposition party is like “I’m here to talk about the important thing: how your average grocery bill has risen by two dollars over the last year, which I also have no plan or ability to fix”

Too few people are talking about the blood on Elon Musk's hands. When DOGE slashed foreign aid, it wasn't just numbers on a screen. It was insulin, food, and antibiotics being ripped away from the world's poorest children. Musk is responsible for the death of thousands

Someday your citizenship papers might end up in a museum nmaahc.si.edu/explore/stor...

BREAKING: We've found 40+ cases of agents using banned chokeholds & other moves that can cut off breathing People have had seizures. They passed out. “I felt like I was going to die” said 16-yr-old citizen Admin won't say whether any agents have been punished www.propublica.org/article/vide...

I mean, what do you say any more?

Video message from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome H. Powell: www.youtube.com/watch?v=KckG... www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/s...

"Despite President Jackson’s pretensions, the Bank War he began was not a mass movement against unelected, usurious elites. It was a president grabbing at power denied to him by the people’s duly elected representatives in Congress, as is Trump’s recent feud with the Fed." (from September)

NEW from me: Job growth has been functionally zero over the last five months, as the US sinks from a “low hire, low fire” labor market to a “no hire” one. That slowdown is hitting young & low income workers the hardest 🧵 www.apricitas.io/p/the-no-hir...

We got “liberated”, alright. 🤡 @wsj.com www.wsj.com/livecoverage...

That is a lot of clean energy infrastructure you could be building in the United States.

If Minnesota doesn't at least try to charge the murderer in the ICE uniform, they should just return the Battle Flag of the Virginia 28th. There's a fight for freedom from tyranny or there's surrender.

King George III on the 1770 Boston Massacre, probably

I beg the media to actually read about the Monroe Doctrine and learn the difference between it and the Roosevelt Corollary.

I suspect that the man still does not understand what asylum means. I suspect this because I met people who told me that they believe that the Mariel boat lift in the 70s involved Cubans released from mental institutions. American literacy is a disgrace.

True to character, the admin puts out a nihilistic/degrowth ad where no one is enjoying the beach. And here is a reminder that immigration has been a driver of growth in American history. Thank you for your attention on this matter. www.nber.org/papers/w23289

This should not be shrugged aside. They have stopped with the fake 22 million illegal immigrants things and are flat out saying we want to deport 10's of millions of citizens and legal residents from "third world countries" Basically they are advocating removing 1/3 of the population on a gov site.

The Elaine massacre of October 1919, writes Atul Dev, represents “a pivotal episode of American history, consigned inexplicably to the margins.” https://go.nybooks.com/4s3ui6p

Imagine how fried-by-white-supremacist-over-online-bullshit your brain needs to be to think that Britain or France's immigration policy is a greater threat than the nuclear arsenals of actual geopolitical rivals like China, North Korea or Russia.

GOP operatives Jacob Wohl and Jack Burkman, convicted election fraudsters, were paid $960,000 in the second quarter to secure a pardon for a former nursing-home operator who defrauded the government of $38 million. Trump pardoned the man, Joseph Schwartz, last month.

The Abundance movement often points to environmental groups as the obstacles to building. But who actually files the lawsuits blocking projects? It’s not environmental groups. It’s been lawyered-up HOAs protecting property values all along. Regulation by litigation is the problem.

US electricity prices continue to rise in inflation data released today, up 41% since 2020 and 7% since this time last year

NSF is about to dismantle NCAR at Russell Vought's direction to protect the fossil fuel industry. It's hard to communicate just how much NCAR does, so let's take a look: I've never worked at NCAR, and I've worked with NCAR researchers once ever. What scientific discoveries has NCAR made possible? 👇

This is extremely important

I mean Joseon dynasty kings also tilled a rice paddy in an annual ritual. Doesn't make them rice farmers.

Two pencils? That would have taken me through one week of algebra class in middle school.

Tomas was always a right of center guy. Wealthy, steeped in feudal privilege, but never particularly partisan. "I was never a supporter of the estates general."
