Lot of days I miss my colleagues at Patriot Act. Today especially. Would've been an incredible Wednesday to walk into that office.

guy said, “Do you like Marx?” I said, “I haven’t met him.” Guy said, “No, no, he’s dead.” “Wow, what happened?” “No, no, he died long ago.” I thought the guy Marx had just died.

After they left, I went to the library to look for Marx. So that was my introduction to Karl Marx. BS: The FBI. MM: The FBI. Then, of course, I took a class on Marx. Couldn’t just get Marx out of the library. But,

Trump turned an outpouring of respect for Kirk into a coliseum of hate The throngs who braved heat, darkness and expense to mourn Charlie Kirk were rewarded with grotesque MAGA saber-rattling.

Wrote about the real people who spent money and time and hope coming to Arizona for the Charlie Kirk memorial. Decent people simply inhabit a different reality from what Trump and Steven Miller pedaled

I would watch this miniseries

Chicago keeping art alive:

the federal success rate in securing grand jury indictments is north of 98% and they're now 0-2 in getting DC grand jurors to take these cases seriously

The US capital is being flooded with military troops at the direct order of the president and media is barely talking about, because the president didn't say "I am doing authoritarianism" but "the military is here to fight crime"

This, but for 40% of the 2026 US economy

I have that very helmet and it has absolutely come off the bench in clutch moments

I am not an economist but at a guess, I think this comes from the interplay between “massive tax on imported produce” and “randomly grab the people who pick crops in the US and put them in concentration camps” 🤔

This is a crucial alarm bell and don’t forget all the alt weeklies that still do irreplaceable work

good one Jeff I think maybe U1
