Lawyers who do any amount of criminal stuff in state court know that District Attorneys really view themselves are fee-generating machines. “You want this bullshit case dismissed? Pay the DA this fee.”

This was a brief emotional moment amid the dry legalese. The judge talked about the soldiers, police, and others who unwittingly were roped into martial law and now must suffer the consequences. Some are in prison and their families suffer as well. Really sad when you think about it.

Yoon Suk-yeol has been sentenced to life imprisonment.

BREAKING: Former South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol has been convicted of insurrection for declaring martial law in December 2024, and has been sentenced to life in prison.

in any case social media is one of the worst inventions in human history, it should be burned with fire, whether that’s by repealing section 230 or by some other method bsky.app/profile/ryan...

The latest from our writer S. Baum.

People seem to think Democrats are going to win big in the mid terms.

I think a lot of people are not going to be able to vote if that voter suppression bill goes through.

Married women, did you apply for a passport?

Minneapolis Mayor’s Emotional Message to Trump: You Failed to Break Us In an interview, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey says ICE’s attack came from the top—and shares new details about how badly it damaged his city, while explaining how the people there are emerging utterly...

Truly, though, it is absolutely offensive that Bari Weiss was going to give the Daniel Pearl Memorial Lecture.

Who thought that was something any educational institution should do? Who thought BARI WEISS could ever properly memorialize Daniel Pearl.

So after Trump pardoned Honduras's narco-president, the admin didn't just let him out--they canceled an immigration hold and sent a specialized team to **chauffeur him to the $1k/night Waldorf Astoria.**

California lawmakers eye 'plug-in solar' to help renters cut energy costs These systems are more affordable and can be mounted in smaller areas like balconies and patios so people living in apartments can use them to cut energy bills.

A very detailed explanation of how FBI bamboozled a magistrate into authorizing a raid on Fulton County’s election offices by omitting critical information that would have totally undermined any probable cause claim. Pretty clear-cut case of calculated deception of the courts.

#shrinking is the world i want to live in.

It’s affirming that the good people of the United States have so clearly rejected Trump’s terror campaign and mass deportation. New data from Reuters:

Mr. Sim lived in the US for 43 years. He was ordered deported 20 years ago after a larceny conviction. Because Cambodia wasn’t accepting deportations, he was allowed to stay on an order of supervision.

After 20 years, he was suddenly arrested at an ICE check-in and sent to detention, where he died.

Few things grind my gears quite as much as these fucking illiterates invoking “Western Civilization,” of which they are obviously and comically ignorant, as a euphemism for white supremacy.

MAJOR: Twin Cities Tenants joins five labor unions, together repping 25,900 members, to launch a rent strike drive, vowing to withhold rent March 1 if @governorwalz.mn.gov fails to deliver an eviction moratorium and rent relief. If launched, this would be the largest US rent strike in 100+ years.

ever since the early February update -and worse since the mid February update- chatGPT is making huge mistakes which is no big deal to me bc it is still saving me time but same mistakes might be critical to someone. i’m just fucking around to see how this is going to replace me.

so far, it can’t.

i keep having to explain to people why so many latinos voted for trump: racism.

latinos are diverse and a lot of white latinos are as racists as white anglos.

Judge orders Trump administration to allow men expelled to El Salvador to return, challenge removal The Trump administration's decision to send these men to a notorious Salvadoran megaprison has not stood up well in court.

Chief Judge James Boasberg ordered the Trump administration to allow the Venezuelan men it sent to El Salvador last year to return to the U.S. and challenge their removal.

The order comes amid the federal government’s ongoing resistance to bring the Venezuelan nationals back.

On the other hand perhaps I am misreading Noah Rothman. Perhaps his reaction to the uproar over Epstein, calling it a moral panic should be read in the context of his accusation that progressives have engaged in a war on fun.
