So it's ok to start a war illegally against a nation of 92 million, for whom you have "no sympathy" as long as the purpose is clear?

Get better Tim!

Yung Chomsky IS a musician! He came up with the theme music for the pod.

1. This 2016 exchange between Jeffrey Epstein and Peter Thiel is so essential, really gets to the heart of Epstein's project.

A retired Minneapolis couple who had guns pointed at them by ICE in a church parking lot.

"They were obviously not trained at all. I've known many police officers in my life. These people were right off the streets."

Just gutting.

Bash did a great job with follow ups. The craziest one happened when Bovino kept saying Pretti assaulted the Officers. Bash followed up, saying, "In fact it appears that the officers were the ones who assaulted Alex" Bovino: "Officers CANNOT assault anyone." .... Got It, makes sense.

The Trump administration is yet again demanding you accept the narrative that random Americans with no history of violence suddenly became aggressive but the militarized force occupying city streets with a long, well-documented pattern of violence is actually the innocent victim.

My best festival experience was from this era, Desert Daze 2016. It had similar bands/vibes

The Lakers were trash from 2013-2019

Hung a guy at Nuremburg for doing this, FYI. Not "a thing like this" but literally this, exactly.

When this is over, amoral anti-American law firms like Jones Day will eagerly be running Operation Paperclip for the lawless scum of the Trump DoJ like D. John Sauer, and the profession has to find a way to inflict debilitating harm on those firms and their managers or give up on the rule of law.

Was just there on Friday! Had to channel the “how not to become your parents” commercials, and ask the counter lady about the pig feet.

This 1943 U.S. Army film warned about fascism in America

ICE ended up returning the man, Saly, after realizing he’s a fucking US citizen with no criminal record, per his sister-in-law. These fucking animals.

I won't remember you

in every big city the mayor works for the cops whether they want to or not. and the cops work for trump

think it’s time to start treating cbs news links the way sensible people treat free press links, by which i mean ignoring them and not spreading them

This is a useful reminder that when the ai bubble bursts the techbros are going even further right. The story they tell themselves will be that they really were a week away from making The Singularity but we awful stupid rubes killed it by being too mean on social media.

"In newsrooms all across the country... they are softening claims, torturing the prose within an inch of its life, deferring to the cops, abetting a fascist incursion, introducing epistemic uncertainty where there is none..."

Its not that the media is not covering what is happening, but it does feel like the military occupation of an American city should be treated as a national crisis.

Any Rod Stewart reference immediately has me picturing Jonsey’s breaking into his house to steal his clothes.
