Well I’m sure ABC thought they secured “peace for our time.”

More of this talk please

This is helping me make at least some sense of the Discourse since last Wednesday. I’m still not sure I totally buy the idea that these two versions were as separate as portrayed here. And trying to guard against wanting it to be so.

Other people’s kids aren’t real to them. Kirk was a peer.

Our pundit class is as lost as the society they purport to speak to and for.

The bodies of the last survivors are barely cold in the ground and Americans already gleefully shitcanning “Never Forget.”

I spent all last week in the National Death Penalty Archive, at SUNY Albany. Incredible collection, I could’ve spent another week there easily.

Otherwise known as “convict leasing.” Except these detainees haven’t been convicted of anything by and large.

Lolol

Which is why he doesn’t belong in government, where the expectation is to act and not just pray.

Good thread. The “Crossfire” model of journalism persists and continues to fail the truth test.

He has no idea and could care less.

A resurgence of “therapeutic” youth prisons would represent yet another evil perpetrated by this evil regime.

Historians of prisons know this: Jailers hate surprise inspections and prefer to put on dog and pony show for compliant politicians. Don’t let them do it.

Now apply the logic of this thread to public and higher education.

Nothing like a little neo-Nazi rhetoric to start a Sunday

Time to replace the term “originalist” with the more accurate “neo-Redeemer” to describe this Court.

The 1930s would like to have a word

I suspect three Marines could wipe out a whole platoon of these glorified rent-a-cops.

Exactly. The mad king says we bomb and “Congress” is nowhere.

In 2003 at least a fig leaf of danger to the US was presented (all BS of course). Unless one sees Israel as the 51st state there is no threat to the U.S. justifying this.

This is so stupid. What’s to stop them from refusing to treat Republicans or married vets?

I wish it were true that the American people haven’t forgotten something but forgetting unpleasant realities is their superpower (at least a plurality of them).

John Oliver summarizes all the research in 35 minutes. Worth your time!

Or at least through 2028

That’s because they were lying and never truly believed any of it.

The right’s situational embrace of concepts like the Supremacy Clause or state’s rights is a given in their quest to strip the right of self-government away from people who aren’t like them.

Still the indispensable nation… indispensably dumb

Good one

Sort of feels like this ritual has replaced dump-tweeting

💯

These clowns are going to have us all back in quarantine by summer.

Buttigieg who isn’t currently in any elected office had more strong words than any elected Dem.

They’re acting on “enlightened self interest” only without the “enlightened” part

But keep voting for lawless cabinet nominees and caving on impoundment. No fight in Senate Dems with a couple of notable exceptions.

Pathetic

So much of this looks all too familiar @gritsforbreakfast.bsky.social - and I’m sure the agency is not worried about any meaningful DOJ action under the current admin.
