This feels like a direct result of thirty years of TV police procedurals where the good guys break the rules to catch the bad guy. Cop shows have trained us to hold The Bill of Rights in disdain.

It really bums me out that Klobuchar, who was instrumental in normalizing Trump as just another political adversary, is almost certainly going to be the next governor of Minnesota, a state currently paying a severe price for that normalization of fascism.
Here's all the Klobuchar v. Republican matchups from that SurveyUSA poll
Best Klobuchar lead is +20, worst is +14

A Kea parrot snatches a camera, capturing its entire act on film.
Recently, while Alexandra Verheul and her family were hiking in Fiordland National Park, they unexpectedly encountered New Zealand's famous kea parrots. Unnoticed by them, a kea snatched a camera that had been placed on a railing.

Unless the fines far outweigh the profits derived from the behavior, nothing will change. It'll just be the cost of doing business.
Make corporate fines so large they're extinction-level events and we'll see the bosses deciding the risks aren't worth it.

I need people to understand that it’s not just Epstein, it’s the entire rape culture that existed before and after him at every socioeconomic level. That’s why Epstein, who I’ve never thought was particularly smart or interesting, was able to pull this all off—he recognized how abuse functions

As everyone knows, gamers reward rehashed and copied rewarmed content ABOVE ALL ELSE. So these investors are really smart.
Right, so video game company stocks are crashing because the power of AI supposedly renders them irrelevant. Meanwhile, Microsoft and Oracle stocks are crashing because they spent too much on AI and the market knows they'll never make a return. The economy is absolutely hosed

It's near-white out conditions in Chicago as the snow comes down, and tonight's anti-ICE/CBP rally is wrapping up in front of city hall.
But not before the crowd bounces and chants, "I believe that we will win!"

I'm going to be fully honest but the reason a lot of the Epstein stuff isn't shocking but also not pulling everything together for me is because it isn't one single, linear path for every thing in the last 20 years but also a method of power dynamics that have been described for decades by feminists

I think they're just deathly afraid of a shutdown and getting blamed for it. Doing much of anything runs counter to their midterms strategy, which is to stand perfectly still and win by default
It doesn’t really need to be said but they are doing this because they support ice and want nothing to change. Insane that people still support them

Maybe ICE just isn't aware of the law? That's why I'm proposing we add an extra $350M to their budget for literacy training.

Anyone who paid attention knew that there was no doubt about the official number from the GHM being an undercount due to its historically conservative approach and due to inability to keep pace with the actual death rate. IDF now admits, like it did in 2021 and 2014, that it has an accurate record.
I cannot tell you how much doubt was consistently directed at the Gaza Health Ministry’s casualty numbers and how much pressure was put on news organizations to couch those numbers as unreliable.
