Went back to the history of the Sicilian Mafia to illustrate something obvious but worth stating explicitly: The Trump administration behaves like an organized crime syndicate running a protection racket, not a representative government www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

Vance says it is "totally reasonable and acceptable" for people to not want to live next door to people who speak a different language than they do

This is North Korea behavior, someone needs to go to prison for life over this.
🧵Here are more details on Randall Gamboa, the Costa Rican man who was snatched by ICE in Dec, detained for 8 months in facilities in Texas, then deported back to Costa Rica via air ambulance in a vegetative state with brain damage.
He is now dead.

I've built a socioeconomic system that depends on everyone to do useful work and act ethically except the people at the top, who get unimaginable rewards for being antisocial frauds and criminals. And I think it will stand the test of time

Extremely funny that INFOWARS has agreed not to publish anything without the explicit consent of the US government
The far-right conspiracy site Infowars says it has signed the Pentagon press agreement and says Breanna Morello will be joining the 'new media' press corps covering the Defense Department.
"I won't be moving to D.C. of course—thank god," she caveats. x.com/infowars/sta...

INFOWARS on X: "🚨MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT🚨 Breanna Morello will be covering news at the Pentagon as a part of the Pentagon Press Corps! The new Pentagon Press Corps consists of over 60 journalists that will combat the fake news stranglehold of legacy media. This is great news for truth and https://t.co/id0VtguTIW" / X

there are good & worthwhile historical & legal arguments for why the unitary executive is nonsense but to my mind the most straightforward argument is that it makes no logical sense that the president has absolute removal power over the people whose job it is to keep the executive branch accountable
The Inspector General system is basically broken now. Most IGs have been fired, most positions remain vacant. Those who remain or would take the job pose no risk to holding the regime accountable.
Congress added more barriers to Trump firing IGs after his first term. He just ignored them.

shocked to learn that the president lied about this and also this is a horrible defacing of a building that belongs to the people of the United States, not donald trump
Scoop: Trump has started demolishing the White House's East Wing facade to build his ballroom. The president had claimed construction of the $250 million building wouldn’t ‘interfere’ with the existing White House structure. /W @ddiamond.bsky.social wapo.st/4hqBNiU

Raising capital gains tax rates and eliminating the basis step-up at death would be much more effective and protected from legal challenge than a wealth tax
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

Hey. Hi. Tom Homan is on camera taking a $50k bribe and no one knows where the money went. If this was any other administration, this would be non-stop on the news. Why are we normalizing this stuff?

"The executive has usurped the power of the purse to pay for a standing army" is something that the Founders very explicitly wanted to prevent from ever happening but, ah, well, nevertheless

John Roberts’ Constitution: The federal government protecting people’s right to vote or giving them health care violates the sacred principle of state sovereignty but if the deranged POTUS and his bloodthirsty advisers want to use the military to invade other states for being too liberal that’s fine
