I can't remember the theorist offhand, but there's a Black scholar who talks about the urgency of white supremacy.

"We can't address racism right now, we have to address [emergency]."

And there will always be an emergency.

It's a common strategy used across most modes of oppression.

Chris Rufo: “We launched the Claudine Gay plagiarism story from the Right to smuggle it into media apparatus of the Left, legitimizing the narrative to center-left actors who have power to topple her. Then squeeze.”

Mediocre "meritocracy" NYT editors who hate Me Too and give him affirmative action:

Calling it now: the US political media's treatment of AOC is going to make their treatment of Hillary Clinton or Al Gore look like a model of balance and discretion.

Dashfire I mean

I've only tried the chocolate and celery bitters from Scrappy's. I will absolutely have to try their cardamom. I don't think they sell sample packs, but I really wish they did. They're my favorite bitters company in general. They have an orange one that's literally the best orange I've ever tried.

People assume test-blind admissions were the result of some hyperwoke crusade against bureacracy and not that "SAT scores poorly predict academic performance" being an exercise in this leftist tract textbook...

Do you use dashfire bitters or a different one? I use mine with a bib rye and homemade brown sugar syrup and it is DIVINE. (Cardamom is one of my favorite flavors of all time!!)

My favorite part of the lost blankie story is that they had to re-hire the pilot because there was no one else to fly them home

We are hostile to anyone being less than supportive because we understand where this two step you're doing into transphobia leads.

And that place you're softly stepping your way towards is full of the bodies of our dead friends, put there by folks just asking questions about our humanity.

Losing your wife to childbirth is the second half of their solution to no no-fault-divorce and bringing back young widows and widowers.

Didn't I see something about her maybe being pregnant again? This is one of the most dangerous countries to be pregnant in in the world.

They're Coming for Our Daughters The conservative plan to shrink girls’ futures

The Heritage Foundation has released a 250-year roadmap to “save America.”

The document is a how-to guide for subjugating girls & young women: a detailed plan to push them out of college, funnel them into early marriage and motherhood, and then trap them there.

Hey... wasn't there a story a while ago about them buying these?

And we were all like "what does DHS need with mortar launchers?"

And... yeah... I think a few of us saw this coming.

Medgar Evers’ killer was a Klansman, but Trump administration says stop calling him a racist - Mississippi Today Among anticipated changes to a new visitor brochure for the Medgar & Myrlie Evers Home National Monument is no longer using "racist" to describe the killer of the civil rights leader.

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE Executive Office for Immigration Review 8 CFR Parts 1003, 1208, and 1240 [Docket No. EOIR-26-AB37; Dir. Order No. 02-2026] RIN 1125-AB37 Appellate Procedures for the Board of Immigration Appeals AGENCY: Executive Office for Immigration Review (“EOIR”), Department of Justice. ACTION: Interim final rule; request for comments. SUMMARY: This interim final rule (“IFR”) amends Department of Justice (“Department” or “DOJ”) regulations to streamline administrative appellate review by the Board of Immigration Appeals (“Board” or “BIA”) of decisions by Immigration Judges by making review of such decisions on the merits discretionary, by setting appropriate times for briefing in cases that are reviewed on the merits, and by streamlining other aspects of the appellate process to ensure timely adjudications and avoid adding to the already sizeable backlog at the Board. Additionally, the Department is making various technical and non-substantive changes to its regulations. DATES: Effective date: This IFR is effective [INSERT DATE 30 DAYS AFTER PUBLICATION IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER]

CORRECTION: This rule does not go into effect tomorrow, it goes into effect 30 days after tomorrow.

My apology.

Thus, rather than require such adjudications, the Department is changing its regulations to provide the Board more flexibility in reviewing appeals. Instead, for appeals taken from decisions issued after this IF becomes effective, as explained in Section IV.A of this preamble, the default will be summary dismissal unless a majority of current Board members vote to consider the appeal on the merits. And such dismissals will occur quickly—within 15 days of filing the appeal—allowing aliens to seek Federal court review expeditiously, rather than potentially waiting for years for a Board decision that in the vast majority of cases would affirm the underlying Immigration Judge decision.

🚨HOLY CRAP. The Trump admin just took a SLEDGEHAMMER to due process, largely eliminating the Board of Immigration Appeals process and MANDATING DISMISSAL of ALL appeals (which cost $1,000 thanks to OBBBA) filed after tomorrow unless a majority of the BIA votes to hear the case.

Ooooooooffffffffffffffff
