Good job idiot

All of these violent, lawless ICE officers terrorizing communities and hiding their faces weren't just hired this year.

It's why dismantling ICE as an agency was so important and remains so. These people are unfit to be public servants if they hate the public.

You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

Tariffs and You, the Gamer With Donald Trump’s tariffs dominating the news, we’ve got an explainer of what they are and what they mean for games, beyond the obvious that’s going on right now.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die.

Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

my offer to america: we bring woke back

“we have to be able to commit war crimes to win wars” is the type of thing a 16-year-old dumbass says and — well, yeah, hegseth is basically a 16-year-old dumbass

Democrats Sick Of Being Blamed For Cowardice On Issues They Actually Just Don’t Care About

If you need to do this much throat clearing before you can manage to say "Kidnapping people for political speech is very bad, actually" then it's time to step back, have a lozenge, and cede leadership to someone more suited to the moment.

Several conversations today w people in the key executive departments. And while the particulars are hard to pin down my impression is that the Musk take over stuff is considerably worse than is being presented in the press. By this I don’t necessarily things they *done* yet but the level of …

So do something about it.

➡️ January 20: FAA director fired
➡️ January 21: Air Traffic Controller hiring frozen
➡️ January 22: Aviation Safety Advisory Committee disbanded
➡️ January 28: Buyout/retirement demand sent to existing employees
➡️ January 29: First American mid-air collision in 16 years

Billionaires Should Not Exist Yes, every billionaire really is a policy failure.

When a single billionaire can accumulate more money in 10 seconds than their employees make in one year, while workers struggle to meet the basic cost of rent and medicine, then yes, every billionaire really is a policy failure.

Let’s try an analogy. Imagine you’re a transportation planner in 1920s Italy. The new fascist regime has promised to make the trains run on time. (Mussolini never actually did make the trains run on time, but let’s say for the sake of argument that he’s making a credible promise to do so.) Does your commitment to accurate train timetables override your otherwise anti-fascist intuitions? Do you think you can realistically collaborate with the regime on transportation policy without compromising yourself and the cause of antifascism? My own view is that it would be perverse to answer either question with a yes. Thinking through a historical example is useful because these things become clearer with the benefit of hindsight. So here’s a little hindsight for you. Ten years ago, I took a trip to Italy, where my then-girlfriend and I stayed at the home of a friend’s cousin. One day, we were driving around some southern Italian farmland with our host, and the topic of fascist Italy came up. “Everyone’s family was in the resistance,” our host told us. “If you ask anyone, their grandparents were in the resistance against Mussolini.” He didn’t mean that literally. He meant that everyone claimed antifascist grandparents, because to do otherwise was shameful. A collaborator in the family was considered a disgrace. Even to have grandparents who kept their heads down and passively acquiesced to fascism was an embarrassment. And rightfully so. So my question to any liberal who intends to work with Musk is as follows: What do you want your grandkids to say about you?

They wish to be visibly cruel because it makes them feel big and strong.

I was thinking that maybe it prevents teams from loading up on a lot of big contracts. Idk. I think the main problem in baseball is not enough teams spend money can definitely afford to.

How anti-labor is capping deferred payments? Would it help at all? A big problem is also there are a lot of owners just not spending money.

“…and give them all green cards so they are not so exploitable. Alas, that kind of sensible immigration reform is not going to happen with Trump as president.”

Exactly. The real solution is solidarity and not scapegoating those, whether citizen or not, just trying to do here what any citizen is…

they are going to do the tariffs and fly the country’s economy into the side of a mountain

Correct. These are fundamentally scams. Perhaps a small number of supporters mistakenly believe the mission is genuine; that's irrelevant, because the mission itself is fraudulent and all the people in charge are scam artists. There's no scenario in which these scams are molded into genuine reforms.

bad case of being lawyer-brained, I’m afraid. The clear meaning of the 22nd is to put a 2 term limit on the presidency, in accordance with the norm established by Washington. This alternative reading is lawless and if it happens, we might as well say the Constitution is no longer in effect.

Looks awesome!!

Correct.

Meanwhile the Atlantic published a whole thing about "decivilization" today: “The line between a normal, functioning society and catastrophic decivilization can be crossed with a single act of mayhem.” (they mean, of course, the CEO, not the genocide)
