There might be a moment in your life—maybe not your life, but someone’s—where you have to decide whether to watch Event Horizon or Titanic.

We're witnessing the end of the Second Republic of the United States.

#1: Articles of Confederation 1781–1789.
#2: Constitution of the United States 1789–2025

We need new means that put all humans—all those created equal—at the center of power, with systems that guarantee expression of that will.

Memo to Bari Weiss Re: CBS News: You’re doomed Bari Weiss has sold her company, The Free Press, to manage the decline of broadcast news at CBS. How many ways can it go wrong?

Because if so I am so down.

Stephen Miller is trying to sell this, which means Stephen miller has someone he needs to sell this to.

we’re gonna need a cbs news pitchbot pretty soon

this is a very very big story because of the apparently totally fake story ICE/DHS put out about what happened.

I was a skeptic about the import of the Epstein files.

But 3 invasions of cities, one military buildup outside Venezuela, a government shutdown, and so many other things meant to distract have me convinced whatever’s in there is the biggest presidential scandal in U.S. history.

It’s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

“Grandpa, what did you do during the second war between the states?”

If this happens, I hope it’s the moment where the federal judiciary starts ignoring SCOTUS.

history teacher in 50 years: So in September, that’s when the president signed an executive order criminalizing anti-fascism and saying all resistance would be crushed

student: oh so that’s when the whole country realized they were living under fascism

teacher: haha what? oh no lol not at all. no.

This movie just gets better and better

Opinion | Democrats shouldn’t bail out Trump as the shutdown drags on The best time for the opposition to take a stand, rather than settle for untrustworthy promises, is right now.

"ICE reportedly planning to target Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show could yield something productive. While the actions themselves would be awful, seeing the cruelty and inhumanity play out during the year’s most watched event would force more Americans to reckon with the Trump admin’s attacks."

i think anyone taught by ilan wurman ought to ask the university of minnesota law school for their money back

"Fuck ICE" is a patriotic sentiment. Perhaps the most patriotic in this moment.
