Sooner or later, someone is going to respond to one of these ICE goons by returning the violence and it's not going to end well -- not for the goon, not for the victim, not for any of us.

She killed her own dog in a gravel pit. Her pet dog. Shot dead. Because he was unruly at a hunt. He was two years old, a puppy.
You cannot expect anything from a gun toting lunatic except lunacy. She should have been locked up right then and there.

They Want You Relying On Artificial Intelligence So That You Will Lose Your Natural Intelligence Listen to a reading of this article (reading by Tim Foley):

They Want You Relying On Artificial Intelligence So That You Will Lose Your Natural Intelligence

They want you to require easily controllable software to form your understanding of the world, and to express that understanding to others.

Also, explain how 17-year olds are “children” when it comes to sexual abuse, vs 10-year old brides. And 14-year olds who committed a crime, if the bill passes in the senate, will be charged as adults. Whole bunches of people omitted getting an education while somehow qualifying to write laws.

Another host, Eugene Daniels, asked Mr. Cuomo what he meant by diversity being a “weakness.”

“Diversity can be a weakness if you have antipathy among groups, Jonathan,” Mr. Cuomo said, mistaking Mr. Daniels for his co-host Jonathan Capehart, both of whom are Black.

Obama: As for the president, he has been focused on critical issues like paving over the rose garden so folks don't get mud on their shoes and gold plating the Oval Office and building a ballroom… If you can't visit a doctor, don't worry. He will save you a dance.

And what’s particularly galling is that US prisons are an abomination, and much needs to be done to get prisoners who are often of limited capacity in all sorts of ways, health care, incl. cancer drugs, etc., but you’ll never hear a D candidate talk about prisoners being treated worse than dogs.

It was a breathtakingly brilliant ad. And also, it was astonishingly stupid to sign that paper. Politifact looked into the # of prisoners who had gender surgery while incarcerated. (Bec this actually became law!) There were a grand total of two. (2) And zero migrants in detention centers.

@bjy1 - I recall the Ds were fretting over Rs taking credit for Biden’s accomplishments before hand already and devised typically lead footed (I’m assuming here) media campaigns to counteract this. Idk what became of it.

Probably as the “like” etiquette which I sometimes muse is ambiguous too. It can feel weird to like a post that’s about something awful, and I need to remind myself it’s what the person says about it or that they draw attention to the awfulness that the “like” is for.

A smuggled book changed his life. Now he’s built 500 prison libraries. Reginald Dwayne Betts was locked up as a teenager for carjacking. Books were his escape, and he went on to be a poet, lawyer and founder of Freedom Reads.

I just donated a few copies of @stephenking.bsky.social Misery to a prison. Books are lifelines. wapo.st/43Kp7gO

This is a smart, important piece zeroing in on something I’ve been saying for the last few months—Thiel, Yarvin, Musk—Trump… they all want to crash the dollar. They benefit the most.

Top Trump Officials Are Moving Onto Military Bases Stephen Miller, Marco Rubio, Kristi Noem, and others have taken over homes that until recently housed senior officers.

A growing list of senior Trump political appointees—at least six by our count—are now living in military housing, where they are shielded not just from potential violence but also from protest, via @michaelscherer.bsky.social @ashleyrparker.bsky.social Missy Ryan www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

They must sue immediately. It’s another trial balloon to see if they can get away with punishing people for spelling out the truth.

100% correct. For several years now I’ve been wondering if they have a private deal going with Rs. Because really, nobody can be that inept.

Eat your heart, out fluffy pants. This is the era of populism, your elitist blood suckers with their stock portfolios that include Walmart and private prisons - nobody is fooled anymore.

So why did president Obama choose him for the Supreme Court? Ah yes, to mollify Mitch, he who cannot be mollified.

It’s also on Ron Fucking Klain. Biden wanted Doug Jones.

The pox on that guy, and on Ron Klain too who talked Biden into this bedwetter over Doug Jones because Jones would have been more partisan and then, oh no…, that would have angered the Refubs! Any Democrat with clenched butt cheeks at his time - GET OUT of politics so we have a chance. 📣Jeffries!!!

Biden Justice Department slow-walked key decisions in Trump legal probes The picture of a hesitant Justice Department runs contrary to the GOP allegation that the indictments of Trump were the product of a Democrat-led plot.
