The U.S. has conducted 19 strikes on alleged drug-carrying boats, killing at least 76 people.
Remember: no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're simply taking Trump's word for it.
He’s unilaterally acting as judge, jury, and executioner.
This is a danger to us all.

The MBS/Oval Office/ABC/"Fake News" thing today. I wasn't aware till I saw it on TV. I was downstairs, my (adult) daughter upstairs. I started shouting "F*ck off. F*ck off you disgusting piece of sh*t".
It's harrowing being on the same planet with him. It wears you down. It makes you ill.

Things fall apart and the center cannot hold when billionaires use all of their influence to push for a culture, a government, and an economy that regularly bestow the highest rewards on literally the worst people in the world.

To me, that is the clear response to the gotcha of medical care for trans prisoners. We should not be the kind of society that denies medical care for prisoners as punishment, and particularly not based on them being an unpopular minority group.

The Trump administration is at war with the US Constitution/United States of America. The Roberts Six are co-conspirators.
Once we establish this as the problem then we can discuss how to handle traitors/enemy combatants.

Yeah the refusal to deal with the fact many are running leading institutions has led to a largely circular and unproductive discourse
The racists among us aren't just sitting in some trailers somewhere. They're doctors, lawyers, judges, prosecutors, cops, federal agents, lawmakers, nurses, firefighters, paramedics, and any other profession you can think of.
They are in every aspect of society.

Imani nails it again; yes, the violation of the promise of America is painful, but for those not sheltered by white privilege, the promise started out broken. Seems clear that white Americans across the political spectrum have had a tragic overestimation of the progress made towards repairing it...
"Black people are tired. Not metaphorically tired—actually tired. The kind of tired that turns every group chat into a mix of gallows humor and emotional triage."
I write about white ignorance and how exhausting it is to hear white ppl insist "this isn't who we are, when it's ALWAYS who we've been.

Disbelief over authoritarianism in America isn’t a cutesy personality trait. It’s a confession: You haven’t been paying attention.

a deeply-held belief that I have no real evidence for: there’s a wide-open lane for a politics of old-school virtue and civility, applied in broadly progressive ways
I continue to think that one of the reasons this country is falling apart is the wholesale abandonment of public virtue as a broadly shared aspiration. Or even something people should be embarrassed about if they don’t have it.

The free speech activist who built a list of professors he worked to get fired for their speech must be celebrated for his support of free speech, and anyone who quotes his speech accurately in context will be fired and/or face state punishment by the champions of free speech, do I have that right?
