UC Berkeley has given the Trump administration the names of 160 students, faculty, and staff as part of an investigation into antisemitism on campus. One of them is Judith Butler. www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...
The shooting of Charlie Kirk was the 46th school shooting of the year. The 47th one happened moments afterwards. www.cnn.com/2025/09/10/u...
Thoughts and prayers
Yet, for all the other violence, we get thoughts and prayers. Not a goddamn thing changes.
A reminder that we’re here because Trump pulled out of the JCPOA (Iran nuclear deal), allowing Iran to crank up its nuclear program, & then appointed a real estate investor with zero knowledge of the issue as his lead negotiator. The experienced Iranian negotiators apparently ran circles around him.
Hypocrisy. Leave it to Leavitt.
He wants unrest. He wants a civil war. He wants to be able to rule by military decree.
And he is arranging things to get it.
Excellent question.
BREAKING: ICE deported a Burmese man who doesn’t speak English to South Sudan—a country he’s not from and on the brink of civil war. He refused to sign English-only papers.
They deported him anyway—with 11 others. No hearings. No translators. Court order ignored. This is state-sponsored kidnapping.
This is quite a story from @propublica.org about how the Trump VA is ignoring the PACT ACT & other life saving care for our veterans. There’s no question that DOGE cuts are putting veterans lives at risk. Shameful.
The fact that the government is using charges of antisemitism to justify sending people to concentration camps is the most enraging manipulation of discourse that the current fascists have engaged in thus far.
They’ll live out their Nazi fantasies all while claiming they are doing it for the Jews.
Kidnapping.
Capturing a person against their will without due process is called kidnapping.
Transporting them to another country without due process is called human trafficking.
A squalid extrajudicial prison for people found guilty of no crime is called a concentration camp.
this is straightforwardly concentration camp stuff.
just in very plain terms: we send people to camps now if we, the government, deem it necessary, without due process. you can file a habeas petition in the united states district court with jurisdiction over el salvador, i guess.

Am I crazy, or is MAGA starting to sound kinda’ Mao-y?
This is correct. You will find no explanation for Trump's actions in economics or political science. You need to go deep into woke academic critical theory, and there it suddenly makes sense why white male nepobabies hate communal prosperity because it undermines their dream of personal superiority.
Glad that our board was able to issue this statement.
Americans wanting cheap consumer goods made in the United States by many workers getting paid high wages is similar to Americans wanting increased government benefits, decreased taxes, and a balanced federal budget all at the same time.
It doesn’t work that way, and can’t. You have to choose.
The “immigrant crisis” is a ginned up “emergency” to provide this administration cover to carry out its anti-democratic, anti-Constitutional, racist final solution. Don’t buy into it!
A very old Soviet joke, from an especially dark time:
Foxes are fleeing the USSR in droves.
Q: Why are you running away?
Fox: The Soviets passed a new law that they’re going to arrest all camels.
Q: But you’re foxes!
Fox: Yeah, why don’t *you* try proving to the NKVD that you’re not a camel.
This is why I always talk about Trump administration foreign policy, not Trump's foreign policy. Trump often appeared to be rubber-stamping decisions made by others in term 1 and it was always wildly unlikely that in term 2 he would be working harder or have more understanding of the issues.
How pervasive is this trend really? Is it just the elite tech bros?
A New Hampshire man with a green card was detained by immigration officers at Logan Airport and is being held by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement at the Donald W. Wyatt detention facility in Central Falls, Rhode Island.
