BREAKING: A federal jury in Brooklyn awarded our clients — 674 immigrants unlawfully jailed by the Suffolk County Sheriff’s Office — $112 million. Could not be more proud to work at @latinojustice.bsky.social and to partner with the talent of Winston & Strawn.

I can't tell if this is currently 1) unthinkable or 2) conventional wisdom but I kinda think Johnson is going to lose the Speakership when the House comes back in session

lmao

This feels like a "too many cooks" gag

I’d like to live in a country where all the ICE agents out there dead-ass beating, murdering, raping, kidnapping, and trafficking human beings faced even half the legal consequences some dude who threw a sandwich has.

The most corrupt America Last President in history. Every day a new pardon worse than one the day before.

Imagine being in a political movement where these are the two options

The most predictable about face ever.

Tuberville seems determined to live down to every negative caricature about Alabama.

As @tracinski.bsky.social and others noted a while back, it's not that Trump's appointments are unqualified—it's that they're *anti*-qualified. They're the antithesis of what their respective offices are about. Like this is someone to appoint if you wanted the *opposite* of a fraud watcher.

HAPPY FOUR SEASONS TOTAL LANDSCAPING DAY TO ALL WHO CELEBRATE

Elite capitulation remains a major problem.

LibDem vs. Reform would be an interesting realignment.

Bear with me. This might be politics of the two party variety...?

If this evidence ever sees the light of day, I want prosecutors, judges, and juries to see it, but I have absolutely no interest in viewing any of it.

there should be a word in English for when somebody tells a story that they think valorizes them but they're the obvious villain

This is the facility that I and many others have been protesting. We’ve been hit, thrown, gassed, and shot with pepper bullets but none of that holds a candle to what is being done to people *in* the actual facility. Read this thread. Don’t look away. Keep your eyes and the pressure on Broadview.

Cornell agreed to pay $30m, hand over admissions data with demographic breakdowns, produce annual "campus climate" surveys to check on antisemitism and changes "since October of 2023," and—here's the dumbest part they agreed to—that the govt can open new investigations whenever it wants. Appeasers.

"We're not a car company, we're an AI company" is pretty much what you would expect a car company that sucks would say.

Viral video of crying Ukrainian soldier sent to front lines is fake Videos of a crying Ukrainian "conscript" have flooded European social media networks, particularly in Germany and Hungary, this week. The clip, however, appears to be created with help from Sora, OpenAI's new tool.

I love reading the WSJ because you can just see the normie republicans crashing out when they realize that the fascist is doing a bad job and it hurts them too

we're gonna have the best sports fixing scandals

The Stefanik run is more about her bailing on Congress than actually having a shot at being governor.

We have a much bigger problem here if people are saying current conditions are worse than in 2008-9.

“Women don’t belong in the workplace” is a delusion of the nineteenth century, and particularly of the upper classes. In preindustrial Europe, the home was commonly the workplace, and everyone worked. Until very recently, the workplace has always been everyone’s.

A decision made illegally.

There had better be trials. And not just for the low-level thugs carrying out these orders, but for everyone up the chain of command. If we get past this, the solution isn’t to pretend it never happened and invite Stephen Miller to Harvard’s Institute of Politics. It’s trials w real punishments.

Elon Musk isn’t even pretending to be tethered to reality now he’s got his trillion dollar pay deal through.

Nuremburg trials is the moderate position

I'm not saying that liberal feminism has ruined the workplace. What I am saying is that Dave from Psychology and I were born to be warriors, are not allowed to be warriors, and are also ridiculed when we try to bring this up under "New Business" at faculty meetings.

Listen, my children, as here is unfurled The story of the sandwich that was hurled On the 10th of August in ‘25; What a moment to be alive! As many chose to look down and duck, One man decided he had to stand up, And so he wound up, and said ‘What the f___’ And gave his sandwich a freedom chuck.

Dem gains in this week's elections erased the inroads Trump made with non-white, young, and low-income voters in 2024. In fact, the R-to-D shift from 24 to 25 is double Trump's gains from 20-24. Claims of a GOP political realignment have been highly exaggerated www.gelliottmorris.com/p/trumps-win...

A distraught man came to Broadview searching for his wife of five years after she was taken by ICE at her court hearing. He wasn’t told anything, tracked her by her phone, and was left weeping in the parking lot.

i do want to point out that this does challenge the ironclad conventional wisdom that no one gives a shit about democracy

Good review of my book.

Trump will probably get angry if SCOTUS kills his tariffs. But it could be the best thing to happen to his administration—it would be the financial/functional equivalent of an instant tax cut, tax rebate, and deregulation. A huge stimulus for the econmy. www.thebulwark.com/p/how-the-su...

Did Women Ruin The Workplace

Let's just save "I don't want to hear about the affordability." That should appear in ads all over the place.

As a suburban soccer mom, I can tell you that quite a few of the even moderately left suburban soccer moms you know are pissed off, amazing at multi-tasking and organizing, and ready to fight

"Operatives believe that the best chances remain flipping seats in Maine and N.C. The next two are much trickier. A Midwest path would involve wins in Ohio and Iowa. But increasingly, chatter has centered on Alaska as a possibility." www.thebulwark.com/p/democrats-...
