Destroying a recently-renovated Kennedy Center so you can build a larger structure with your own name on it is megalomania, plain and simple. Thereโ€™s no economic or political rationale. Just his bottomless desire to see himself honored and feted.

This happened in 2018, folks.

After it was already public knowledge that Epstein was a pedophile sex-trafficking scumbag.

I cannot tell you how much doubt was consistently directed at the Gaza Health Ministryโ€™s casualty numbers and how much pressure was put on news organizations to couch those numbers as unreliable.

Biden himself said they were fabricated!

โ€œPotentialโ€ and the Gender Promotion Gapโ€ 
By Alan Benson, Danielle Li, and Kelly Shue*
We show that subjective assessments of employee โ€œpotentialโ€ contribute to gender gaps in promotion and pay. Using data on 29,809
management-track employees from a large retail chain, we find that
women receive substantially lower potential ratings despite receiving
higher performance ratings. Differences in potential ratings account
for approximately half of the gender promotion gap. Womenโ€™s lower
potential ratings do not reflect accurate forecasts of future performance: Women subsequently outperform male colleagues, both on
average and on the margin of promotion. We highlight two mechanisms driving the gender potential gap: strategic retention and stereotyping. (JEL J16, J31, J71, L81, M12, M51)

Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But heโ€™s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him.

โ€œWhen they say, โ€˜Why would you be out here?โ€™ How the fuck could I not be out here?โ€ he says. โ€œMy nation is under attack."

I want to say this too: this victory was won because we had observers EVERYWHERE. ICE and CBP couldn't set foot in our city without cameras rolling. Much of the nation seemed determined to ignore our plight for weeks, but the avalanche of documentation we produced dragged the nation to us.

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call โ€œsymbolic compliance.โ€

Thatโ€™s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

The people of Minnesota have executed one of the most impressive civil resistance campaigns I can remember:

- Organized a city wide general strike
- Maintained nonviolent discipline amidst violence
- Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE
- Flipped public opinion against ICE

As someone who has spent over 35 years trying to explain that violence is inherent to policing only to have most people be OK with this, I could be excused if I decided to just give up. But I'm not. I knew we would be where we are today. I still think that we do not have to live like this.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

White. Hot. Rage.

Disabled son of ICE detainee dies after 30 days of hospitalization It had been months since Wael Tarabishi seen his father. The family is calling on ICE to release Maher Tarabishi so he may attend his son's funeral.

In October, ICE grabbed Maher Tarabishi.

He was a 24/7 caregiver for his disabled son Wael.

At the time of Maherโ€™s detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Waelโ€™s caregiver put his life at risk.

Wael died on Friday at age 30.

ICE caused his death.

They didnโ€™t get to say goodbye.
