I spoke with Aliya Rahman, the autistic woman with a TBI whom ICE dragged out of her car. But that video was just the beginning of her nightmare. To this day, she can’t lift her arms normally.

He cannot be clearer. There is no difference to him between bombing random fishermen on boats and shooting Americans protesters in the face
I swear this clip is not edited. Trump pivots from downplaying the killing of Renee Good and Alex Pretti ("two people out of tens of thousands and you get bad publicity") to in the very next breath claiming "we've been very tough on the waters," leaving Tom Llamas baffled ("the waters?")

5. When you read the Constitution's original instructions for the census (they're in Article I, Section 2, Clause 3), you won't find the word "citizen" or "voter."

From the beginning, the founding document of the United States has called for a once-a-decade count of "persons"
Enumeration Clause

4. But since the first U.S. census in 1790, this has been an unwavering truth:

No resident has ever been left out of the census because of their U.S. citizenship or immigration status

Seeing yet another 'using whistles is disablist' piece circulating: for the 40 millionth time, using disabled people as cover like this is disgusting and calculated to prey on people who are anxious about doing the wrong thing. Doesn't escape notice that white people are the worst offenders.

In particular, leveraging mental health conditions here in a very pointed way to prey on the superficial 'mental health awareness' floating around is especially vile when you consider that being kidnapped; fearing for your family; and experiencing systemic racism all cause extreme mental harm.

Context matters: Grabbing a child without their consent is not okay, but grabbing a child to get them out of the way of an oncoming car, or attacking dog, or ICE agent, is community care where overriding consent is justified. Blowing whistles to save lives is justified.

"actually his stuff was very Derivative and not Original" like, you don't have to do this. it is good for us all to sit with the cognitive dissonance that a very bad person can make very good art. it is good for us to work through the moral ramifications of that.

A tough one to sit with--but we must--is that some people's ability to make good art in part derived from, or was protected by, the fact that they were enabling or doing terrible things. See also: We Need to Talk about Cosby doc. Even more troubling on this score: Read deep reporting on Alice Munro
