this crackdown on all dissent against the US' concentration camp policy is just getting started - these sentences mean that anybody who works against ICE or spreads information about that work can, with precedent, be sent away for the rest of their life

Court can't go on like this. The Constitution as plainly as possible says people who were born here have an unequivocal right to citizenship. Four people whose ONLY job is to read the Constitution for the rest of their lives just tried to overturn it because they're tired of brown people. Pack it.

Every "centrist" believes political views are a great big bell curve with the overwhelming majority of people near them, but that's just not true. The number of people truly in "the middle" is vanishingly small—the real middle is "incoherent mixture of views"—and courting them is a guaranteed loser.

QAnon theories were often so ridiculous that they felt comical, but there was an incredibly dark side to what they set off in society at their peak. There's nothing cute about the government leaning on it to make jokes.

part of the reason i'm more certain that 2026 is going to lead to some level of constitutional hardball or crisis is that when you notice how the ecosystem of the right works, there's basically no perception of the fact that Dems are likely to going to retake one (or two) chambers of the legislature

One of the wildest things about Kavanaugh's now-notorious quote is that there was ample evidence *on the record before the court* that this was untrue, yet he stated it as an undisputed statement of fact. Did he bother to read the record before writing his opinion?

You used to be able to google the time of the sunset, and Google would give you the exact time right on top every single time. Thankfully, with artificial intelligence, you can now ask Google what time the sun will set and it will conveniently tell you "I don't know."

The only product I think Elon Musk ever actually designed is the Cybertruck. I absolutely believe that is 100% him. And not just because it is a low quality product, but it looks like someone who doesn't understand cars (or aesthetic design in general) came up with it.

Eric Trump joining Donald Trump on an official state visit to China is much more corrupt than anything involving Joe and Hunter Biden, yet New York Times coverage indicates the opposite. I show the contrast here, and challenge anyone to explain how it isn’t media bias in Trump’s favor.

The largest ever settlement or jury award for government violations of constitutional rights to a single person is $100 million, or 1 percent of what Trump demanding for the leak of his tax returns. That case -- a killing by police -- was reduced to $1 million on appeal.
