Serious question: What's stopping the State of Illinois from arresting Stephen Miller & charging him with incitement?

The Senate didn't confirm him. He's just a guy.

At some point, the states MUST use their authority to prosecute, because the federal government certainly will not.

We Need Public Broadcasting The Right has finally managed to gut public broadcasting. Our already anemic access to news, education, and culture has taken a massive blow.

"Public broadcasting isn’t usually seen as part of the safety net, but it should: a key component in any society that has the remotest concern for its inhabitants’ well-being" jacobin.com/2025/07/publ... via @ubupamplemousse.bsky.social #pubmedia

I want to add a small but suggestive experience to this. In a recent piece I did for @newyorker.com about ICE arrests of Democratic officials and lawmakers, we got a comment from the White House, in which a spokesperson said that the magazine was β€œencouraging lawless behavior” by reporting on it.

Dogged attachment to an unjust and planet-killing "normalcy" is what helped usher in this hostile takeover of our government. The only way out is to create something we've never had before not to tweak what now is.

How does wildly unpopular legislation become law and not one story about it is how obviously undemocratic our country already is? How this proves hostile takeover of our government?

#MAGAMurderBill is the only apt descriptor for this evil monstrosity that will empower the regime to do away with whomever they deem undesirable.

The Queer History of Central Park’s Bethesda Fountain Artist Emma Stebbins may have modeled her 1873 bronze angel for the popular landmark after her partner, actor Charlotte Cushman.

1/8 Trump just told Americans who have bodies that sometimes get sick (and prefer not to die) to #GoFundYourself!

So we did.

We’ve launched a $723B GoFundMe to replace what he’s stealing from Medicaid.

Every $10 cancels $1K in medical debt.
