"It’s too easy to say, Nothing matters, LOL, Supreme Court. But it matters a lot to have a judge say that the DHS officers themselves incited violence. They created violence and then they answered it with their own violence. And I think that is the moral of the story." @dahlialithwick.bsky.social
Trump’s Border Chief Framed Protesters for Violence. Then the Bodycam Footage Came Out.
The Trump administration faced back-to-back rebukes in a pair of cases that challenged the president’s efforts to intimidate or terrorize deep-blue cities.

"Trump ran by by dangling these carrots in front of poor people in America. But once he actually took power, the the optics, the gold, the opulence that he surrounds himself in puts on full display that this guy does not give a flying fuck about the people that he pandered to on the campaign trail."

Thomas Jefferson was 44 when he started in creeping on 14-year-old Sally Hemings. And Sally, who was enslaved, shared a father with Martha Wayles Jefferson—Tom's wife.

He's been dead literally centuries and the US refuses to reckon squarely with what this meant for definitions of American greatness

Families on SNAP worry about not just feeding themselves but also their pets

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.

He is a computer safety researcher.

And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

The Golden State has become the world's fourth-largest economy because of our climate leadership, not in spite of it.
