Y’all know what cocooning after trauma implies? I kinda think half our population has cocooned from politics and religion. Not sure how to add value yet, but changing my display name is a step I need to take. The toolbox is still there. It’s not WHAT happened to us now. It’s WHY it happened.

It was transforming the biggest NFL stage in the world into a sugar cane plantation that did it for me.
Like, the multiple layers of turning an American icon into a plantation and highlighting the history of exploitation of Black and Brown bodies by the NFL and American colonialism simultaneously?

If Dems are smart they will pull on the Lutnick thread.
Massie on Howard Lutnick: "He should just resign. Three people in Great Britain resigned for less than what we've seen Howard Lutnick lie about. He clearly went to the island, if we believe what's in these files. He was in business with Jeffrey Epstein."

When I read about a fascinating-sounding political science book these days, it's not uncommon that I read the description and get very excited only to discover it's only about the US, and am instantly deflated. It's a bit depressing how irrelevant non-comparative work on the US seems these days

An executive order signed by New Jersey’s governor opens jury duty to people with past convictions who were previously banned. This means that the pool of eligible jurors in New Jersey will instantly become much more reflective of the state's demographics.
In a Final Act, New Jersey Governor Opens Jury Service to Thousands with Convictions
New Jersey has been one of the harshest states in banning people with records from juries. Murphy’s order restores eligibility to over 300,000, but stops short of permanent change.

Judge Reyes’s conclusion: “There is an old adage among lawyers. If you have the facts on your side, pound the facts. If you have the law on your side, pound the law. If you have neither, pound the table. … Having neither and bringing the adage into the 21st century, [Noem] pounds X (f/k/a Twitter).”
