I can't stop laughing at this post. It's perfect.

OH HELL YES. NEIL GORSUCH, THE LAST JUSTICE OF THE MOCHICANS, ASKS "Do you think Native Americans are citizens of the united states." IF YOU TRIP GORSUCH'S NATIVE AMERICAN WIRES, YOU LOSE. GOOD DAY, SIR!

HOLY SHIT UCONN

this is turning out to be one of the onion's all-time classics

Oudone Lothirath missed four out of five chemotherapy appointments while in ICE detention and received no medical care there. Now he will likely die in a matter of days. www.startribune.com/how-ice-deta...

this is exactly how trumps rants should have been reported on since 2015

Screaming

PEPFAR, the program to stop hundreds of thousands of children and adults from dying of HIV/AIDS, was $6.5 billion a year.

The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing people local newspaper reporters are rarified elites instead of ink-stained wretches driving their Honda Civic to a crime scene so you know don’t have to rely on Nextdoor and the police press release.

More than 400 people, including hundreds of citizens, were “sorted” at gun point into racial and ethnic groups by 200 ICE agents who fired flash-bang grenades into cars with people inside, pointed guns at children & demanded their zip tied parents not comfort them. apple.news/Ausdx6kWtT0e...

Imagining wanting less of this in America lol. Skill issue

Judge Biery signed the order with a photo of Liam and two bible verses: The first is "But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven." The second is simply "Jesus wept." Astonishing thing for a judge to do.

This five year old is still in jail

I wrote about my childhood friend Alexi Pretti. Please read it and share it and remember him as a human being. @theverge.com

The Washington Post published a clear video of federal agents removing Alex Pretti's handgun moments before he was fatally shot. There's nothing in the video to suggest Pretti even reached for his weapon. wapo.st/49Zqv1L

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

Alex Pretti "used to tell people off when they made sexist comments to female physicians. He bought me coffee when I had a really bad day as an intern...I laughed alongside him daily. He made a point to teach medical residents without judgement, but with a smile on his face and a joke."

“Everyone should be allowed to carry a gun for their safety but the government can murder you in the street if you have a gun” is an incredible endpoint for the conservative moment

People are being executed in the street over a problem that straight up does not exist and both parties are complicit in the lie

Well, @sarahjeong.bsky.social has been pitching Best Gas Masks for a while now and it’s about time to say yes

I was present for the birth of the web, the explosion of personal sites, and the blogging revolution, and you know what we never had to do? Beg people to use our shit.

Marco Rubio, June 2012.

Nobody in the media will directly say "all of trumps social media people are using Nazi propaganda" because they're like, that's such a strong claim, what if all of it has been by ACCIDENT. but like... it's pretty undeniable that it's all fucking WEIRD. why is the department of LABOR posting this?

ENOUGH www.theverge.com/policy/85990...

You're such a fucking monster if this is the pull quote you use from this interview. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

Jacob Frey: "To ICE -- get the fuck out of Minneapolis"

It's striking that progressives like Tim Walz and Zohran Mamdani evoke the middle American attitude that, "Yes, we can fix these social problems because we're Americans and it's the right thing to do!" While the "America first" right only emulates failed and failing nation-states elsewhere.

The full spiked 60 Minutes CECOT package, clean & subtitled. 1/5

as foretold by the prophesy

Like just the idea that it's not a big deal to cite something that you don't know is real because you asked an LLM is so against all of our training. Like what do you mean you might catch that mistake later on, it's when you made it that it mattered!

"I'm not Enron. please don't put in the newspaper that I'm Enron"

EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification. I glanced down at the message. “Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began. So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies. www.lawfaremedia.org/article/anna...

Claim: 10 cars rammed ICE Truth: No cars rammed ICE Claim: She boxed ICE in Truth: ICE boxed her in Claim: She shot a rifle at ICE Truth: She did not have a rifle Claim: ICE returned fire Truth: Only ICE fired Claim: She drove herself to the hospital Truth: Paramedics found her

"What is this entire anti-terrorism memorandum if not an admission that terrorism works, and that terrorism has secured the White House?" wake up babe @lopatto.bsky.social and @sarahjeong.bsky.social banger alert www.theverge.com/policy/79051...

korean reporting is nightmarish on the conditions Korean workers were contained in

Just to be blunt, if you want Wired and 404 and The Verge to employ reporters who understand the memes on bullet casings and can connect them to gaming culture while having the legal and support resources to deal with waves of harassment when we do it… you have to subscribe and pay for the work

About 1 in 4 U.S. adults worry they or someone close to them could be deported, according to a June @pewresearch.org survey. www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/...

"Today, fossil fuels are our weapons of mass destruction. They kill more people on this planet every year than anything else. Even before we calculate the toll from climate change, air pollution alone kills 8 million people each year. Fossil fuels are the greatest threat to human life."

Chicago keeping art alive:

Making them wear high-visibility vests over camo is such a good joke you couldn’t write it

it's crazy how we just take for granted now that the president is a deranged racist

show this to every consultant who thinks chasing toxic masculinity is the way to getting going men's votes

made great progress on my to do list today: ☑️ doomscrolled reddit at the office ☑️ ate microwave mac and cheese ☑️ remembered I'm the same age Orson Welles was when he made Citizen Kane ❎ accomplished any real, actual work

Every American should read this ACLU lawsuit about what is happening in Los Angeles and California. It is the stuff of dystopian nightmares. This is not immigration enforcement. It is positively stuffed with videos and articles documenting racial profiling on a scale unseen since Jim Crow.

Been thinking more and more about how the internet warped everyone's brains into thinking everything someone does is "performative" and meant for public scrutiny. You know we all used to just... read books and watch films etc. we liked and no one else even knew? www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...
