This can be a repeat of the fireworks show where they accidentally set off all of the fireworks at once. Totally acceptable. I can stack celebrations.
dear universe,

if you are going to kill off multiple Big Bads at once, and by all means go for it, remember basic mixtape structure.

don't go too hard all at once. let each track breathe and then keep the energy growing.

you get one shot. do it right, and she'll definitely fuck you after prom.

Great thread on podcasters and Russia
I think the most interesting thing (derogatory) about the podsphere is the discovery that many podcasters had been paid millions of dollars by the Russian government to do misinformation

The acknowledge it ... and kept on misinforming

There are no WHITE Dem Stephen Millers.

I will note something I keep hearing from different lawyers, immigration activists, Dem operatives et al:

There is no Democratic Stephen miller . And that’s a problem

Sorry, I made a mistake. The correct figure is 38 million deaths associated with unilateral sanctions imposed by the US and EU during the period 1970-2021.

First they illegally deport citizens. Then they unleash ICE to terrorize communities. Now they’ve got the National Guard in L.A. to silence protestors.

This ain’t about law and order.

This is what authoritarianism looks like.

Let’s be clear: ICE injured and detained the president of SEIU California for peacefully observing.

ICE picked the wrong side. The wrong state. The wrong person. and the wrong union. David Huerta stood up. And now 750,000 SEIU workers are standing up behind him.

In the future, ICE prisons will be turned into museums documenting a horrible and evil past. Be on the right side of history. Speak up. Speak out.

When Huerta says “We are a power”

He means the farmworker, the janitor, the nurse, the home care provider. The workers.
And he’s right.

You can’t detain a movement.

I'm giving you a mission for this Memorial Day holiday weekend. I want you to talk to two people—friends, neighbors, cookout attendees—about why Trump's proposed budget would be a disaster for American kids.

We owe the next generation every chance, and this isn't it.

Absolute bullshit
The DOJ found that police in Louisville and Minneapolis were violating people’s civil rights—so they created a plan to fix it, with rules the departments had to follow.

Now Trump’s DOJ wants to shut it down… like Breonna Taylor and George Floyd’s lives didn’t mean a damn thing.

It’s especially painful that this decision comes on the eve of the fifth anniversary of George Floyd’s murder — the very tragedy that sparked this investigation and the urgent push for reform.

Walking away from this agreement, after confirming the need for it, is unconscionable.

Reporter: Why would Americans feel anxiety if they're already Americans?

Because due process and habeas corpus grant us the right to prove it. Even an American needs a hearing to prove they're American if the cop doesn't believe them.

Do you see how this works?

Thrilled to learn from DOJ's argument that the 14th Amendment applied to the "children of former slaves, not illegal immigrants, who didn't exist as a class yet" that modern firearms are not protected by the Second Amendment!
