You can't raid and arrest everyone in an entire apartment building, or even legitimately get a warrant to do that, any more than you could for a whole neighborhood. That would be a general warrant. This is the most specific core the-British-did-it-to-us thing the Fourth Amendment is written to ban.

the government should not be able to smash into your home and drag you into the street for no reason. it's kind of a core civil right, perhaps THE core civil right.

Massive immigration raid on Chicago apartment building leaves residents reeling: 'I feel defeated' The Department of Homeland Security said federal agents with Border Patrol, the FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives arrested 37 people in the raid.

My god.

“Watson said she saw agents dragging residents, including kids, out of the building without any clothes on and into U-Haul vans. Kids were separated from their mothers…’It was heartbreaking to watch…seeing kids coming out buck naked and taken from their mothers, it was horrible.’”

Reuters travelled to northern Cameroon - where the U.S. had played a leading role in the malaria response for nearly a decade - to document how Trump's sudden cuts are contributing to delayed malaria diagnoses, inadequate treatment and a growing number of deaths.

Ezra Klein: There's a Rick & Morty quote I really like.

Ezra Klein: It goes like this, "Why would a pop-tart want to live inside a toaster? That would be like the scariest place for them to live."

Ta-Nehisi Coates not saying anything

Ezra Klein: Because in the episode they go to a neighborhood where everyone is a pop-tart and they live in toaster-houses.

National political reporters: consult your gaming desk. You likely have a massively blind spot — this isn’t a dig at anyone, because I have this blind spot too b/c I’m not a gamer and am trying to adjust for it in real time — covering this very important moment if u don’t game & don’t know the memes

The reason why older generations burnt the shit out of their meat and boiled the shit out of their vegetables, was your kid died if you didn't.

Medium rare steaks and roasted Brussels sprouts are a side effect of an intact food safety infrastructure

On one hand, if Tim Cook can get Apple's stock to rise by 10% by giving a president a little gold trinket, it's a good deal.

On the other hand, if CEOs have to bribe a U.S. dictator with gifts to be successful, the whole American stock market should be plummeting.

Class and Cleavages Class Wars ⟺ Gender Wars ⟺ Culture Wars ⟺ Trade Wars

New Substack post: the culture war is reaching new heights of stupidity and insanity. Is it because we’re crazier and dumber? Not quite - it’s because of the economy, and women’s new roles in it.

Every statement from Trump officials right now is just “Evacuate now? In our moment of triumph?”

This was the starting point of every discussion of trade I heard in college and law school. Can't believe it's completely lost in the current discourse.

Lost in all of the talk about tariffs is probably the most important aspect of free trade: It prevents wars.

While there will be lots of articles in the next few days about the impact of tariffs on global markets and the economy, I am more concerned about their impact on global peace.

woooah boy 📉

If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.

Kseniia Petrova, a Russian scientist at Harvard Medical School, was detained at Logan Airport after returning from France and sent to an ICE detention in Louisiana, The Insider reports.
