A national shame for which there must be accountability and justice

The government is currently run by vengeful, pathetic people whose main - or perhaps only - goal is to hurt people.

Things Claude (still) can't do: Juggle Refuse to put myself to bed at 9pm Make jerk chicken Disappoint my parents Experience severe anxiety I'm safe for now

Personally think Dulles airport deserves to be named after Trump

⏰One week left! Deadline approaching for our Early-Career Conference on Political Dimensions of Urban and Rural Life (April 23-24 at LSE). Submit your paper: forms.office.com/e/9qVWeNTK0p Looking forward to some great papers! ✨

The United States is under the rule of law. Prosecuting someone who has not broken a law is NOT AT ALL “up to the President”. It is far past time for our flaccid Congress to act in defense of our Constitution. Its ongoing suspension harms *all* Americans, Conservative and Liberal.

Elizabeth Zuna Caisaguano is an 11-year old girl kidnapped by ICE from the same city as Liam Ramos and held in the same child prison. She's coming home. Abolish ICE. Leave our children alone. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

it is the responsibility of every man who interacts with him (and his ilk) to tell and show him that this isn't at all how men behave but it sure is how creeps, abusers, rapists behave. he unmistakably needs to be made to feel like a creep no one wants to have anything to do with.

Thanks to Monica and APSA for organizing this, and to all the people who came and listened and asked questions. Sorry we couldn't answer all of them. If you ever want to talk, drop me a line.

Also how the American electorate feels tbf

A bit like me and fashion tbth

It’s a great day to book a blood donation appointment!

New preprint! So, what's a multiverse analysis good for anyway?> With @jessicahullman.bsky.social and @statmodeling.bsky.social juliarohrer.com/wp-content/u...

V sad that we had a diverse menu of science fiction futures to pick from and we got The Matrix.

If Ezra Klein were a good person™️ he would in fact give his labour away for free like the rest of us good people

"It is morally wrong to accept money for work" feels like a new depth of BlueSky brain

Unreal. He’s shutting down the Kennedy Center, after his flunkies caused mass defections of artists? Everything the man touches turns to ash. Our cultural heritage; destroyed. Our national treasures; plundered.

Trump so keen to speed run Nazism he’s capitalising nouns

“If the person is a U.S. citizen or otherwise lawfully in the United States, that individual will be free to go after the brief encounter.” Justice Brett Kavanaugh www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

DHS will soon be offering to hand out stolen art from deportees’ homes.

The White House could not be clearer here. It opposes immigration, period. It is radically, ideologically, categorically dead-set against immigration itself—against “all visas”. Against the very same immigration that brought Miller’s refugee ancestors to the United States.

Liam Ramos' schoolmates, delivered by the principal to their single mom in a detention center.

reminder that a small handful of Republicans in the House and Senate could end this madness today

ICE has the modus operandi of a violent carjacking and kidnapping gang.

Mock him all you want but in my experience on this point the man speaks for 99% of Boomers in every wealthy Western nation (I mean who’s mum doesn’t have 12 homes)

Do I know anyone who got a British Academy postdoc.? Please let me know if so!

It’s easy to forget since he’s still a high public official but Homan straight up took $50,000 in cash from undercover agents on camera and then nothing happened

Rhetoric shot Renee Goode in the face before calling her a “fucking bitch.” Rhetoric shot Alex Pretti in the back while he was pinned to the ground by multiple federal agents.

When everyone brings $50k of cold hard cash in a paper bag, the tyranny will move on to its next victims.

you can’t fucking dox a public official!

Feels weird to be living through this moment, like listening to Bob Dylan's Hurricane but in real time

It is filthy and abominable for a President of the United States to respond approvingly to an attack on a member of Congress. I will never become desensitized. A void of humanity and values in our leadership does not benefit any ‘side’. It will ultimately harm all Conservatives and all Liberals.

ICE deported a 5-year-old US citizen to Honduras, where she had never been, after holding her & her mother in a hotel room 80 miles from home for several days and not allowing them access to a lawyer www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Evidently Austin PD plays a deeply villainous role in this terrible story

Don’t like being one of those political scientists who tries to demonstrate the “relevance” of their research, BUT… In our study of lawless, televised, brutal state violence in South Africa we find that the *key* to accountability is the existence of political actors willing to fill the vacuum.

Testament to Trump‘s extraordinary longevity that his face was the first image ever broadcast on Tv

Reminder that, as of the latest reports, Liam Ramos is still in prison in Texas - now for 5 days. His parents are legal asylum seekers with no criminal record.
