As the Department of Education is further dismantled, the US political elite vote to condemn what they and the overwhelming majority of the US public cannot define: socialism.

The part where they threatened to break a judge’s car windows should be a bigger story … they feel comfortable treating judges this way, which means they are being told that they can do literally anything to nearly everyone

I want people to displace the imaginary depictions of *revolutions* that they have come to create in their heads with the actual small revolutionary acts that happen daily. We might get closer to revolution that way.

Hello, friends and family, Today I'm reaching out to you with a heavy heart. As some of you know, my mom was arrested while selling tamales on 47 Pulaski Street, while I was at school, and she needs a lawyer so she can come home. My mom is the most important person in my life. She has always been there for me and has always supported me. She is my rock, my confidante, and my best friend. I don't know what I would do without her. I know lawyers can be expensive, but I have no other option. I need to do everything I can to get my mom home. That's why I'm asking for your help. Any amount you can donate will be a huge help. Every penny counts and brings us one step closer to reuniting our family. If you can't donate, please share this post with your friends and family. The more people who see this, the better our chances of reaching our goal. Thank you for your time and consideration.

A Trump supporter started murdering his way through an assassination list of Democratic law makers FIVE MONTHS AGO. He murdered my colleague Melissa Hortman, and her husband Mark — and attempted to assassinate my dear friend John Hoffman and his wife Yvette. I was also on the hit list. WTF

The federal government shot Marimar Martinez in Brighton Park, charged her with federal crimes, and just weeks later is dismissing the case. This follows several dropped prosecutions against protesters. To say the immigration raids have been all around mess is an understatement

Google boss says trillion-dollar AI investment boom has 'elements of irrationality' In an exclusive BBC interview, Sundar Pichai hailed artificial intelligence as an "extraordinary moment" but said no company would be immune if bubble burst.

I like how these guys get to have it both ways

they get to inflate the bubble via broad product misrepresentation and bogus math

then dole out sage warnings about a looming problem they created as if they played no role in it
