A private equity–owned airline is profiting from Trump’s migrant crackdown. Now, deportation flights are getting longer and crueler as a result.

Migrants said they sometimes soil themselves in their seats. Even when permitted to use the lavatory, it's difficult to clean themselves while shackled.

Pam Bondi & Donald Trump are being dishonest with the American people.

Bondi's OWN DEPARTMENT published a report on violent right-wing extremism and wiped it when Donald Trump said that political violence is only a problem on the left.

Restore the data and keep Americans safe.

Happy Freya’s Day!

I enjoyed a lovely warm walk in the woods with friends on Tuesday, and a solo walk by the water yesterday that was chillier, but not as much as the previous couple of weeks in NC coast’s snowmageddon, and wind, and rain and freeze and rain and freeze…

I know there are more insidious uses of AI, but one of the most depressing to me is when it pops up in local TV ads. These things are supposed to be folk art; put your uncle in a bad wig like god intended.

Klein: People are afraid to come into clinics or hospitals because they’re afraid they’ll be snatched. So they’re staying home with acute conditions like appendicitis. They’re not going to their follow-up neonatal appointments. They’re allowing their jaundiced babies to go untreated.

When Ds are back in charge, they have to change everything. No moderate half-measures. Just relentless razing of the corrupt institutions that enriched the worst people in the world and propped up fascism.

What a stupid time to be alive.
According to multiple NYT sources, it wasn’t even military personnel at Fort Bliss that fired an anti-drone laser at alleged cartel drones. It was CBP who used the weapon on loan from DoD against a child’s party balloon they mistook for a drone. The Pentagon gave CBP an anti-aircraft weapon.

You’re not crazy. The anti-trans movement is not organic; it was funded by pedophilic billionaires like Jeffrey Epstein who backed a network of conservatives to accuse the same people they were sexually abusing of being the real danger. @madycast.com exposes the truth in our in-depth report.

To have a voice means not just the animal capacity to utter sounds but the ability to participate fully in the conversations that shape your society, your relations to others, and your own life. There are three key things that matter in having a voice: audibility, credibility, and consequence.

In many ways this society has moved toward a democracy of voices, as people who for their race or gender were shut out of systems of power and possibility – out of jury duty, professions, institutions...

"We would have lost so much if we'd driven him away" is the justification.

But we lost all those girls. We lost the women they would have become. We lost the work they would have done. Why was his future work so much more valuable than theirs?
