Also a weird relationship between perceptions of financial decadence and perceptions of "sexual decadence" that I haven't fully untangled; thinking of the combined portrayal of "welfare queens" as entitled and promiscuous but pointed upwards at elites instead of downward on the "undeserving poor"

The throughline from the Epstein story to Trump's gradual decline as a political figure is one of class. It has a hook in the public's imagination not only because it's salacious but because it's about wealthy men abusing teenage runaways and that rhymes with people's own resentment towards the 1%

For two months, the U.S. government has been racial profiling as masked federal agents hunted for immigrants throughout Chicago. They’ve repeatedly snatched up U.S. citizens while traumatizing communities. “I felt like a piece of trash.” Here is our story www.chicagotribune.com/2025/11/15/l...

“AI” is truly the perfect crime
Plausibly presenting a magic slave to consumers, businesses and investors when it depends on criminal and unethical behavior to create and operate and is ultimately irretrievably broken and can never work as you promise (and you know it).
It’s fascinating and scary.

There had better be trials. And not just for the low-level thugs carrying out these orders, but for everyone up the chain of command.

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

This is terrible news. Transgender Americans need the ability to travel without being outed by government document. The Supreme Court supports efforts by the Trump administration to make us second class citizens.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court will allow the Trump administration to enforce its anti-trans and anti-nonbinary passport policy during litigation.
The unsigned, four-paragraph order effectively reverses two lower-court decisions. The Democratic appointees dissent.

No. 25A319
DONALD J. TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED

This case concerns an Executive Branch policy requiring
all new passports to display an individual’s biological sex at

from enforcing the policy, and the First Circuit declined to
stay the injunction pending appeal. The Government then

The Trump administration is going to restrict the number of refugees it admits into the US next year to the token level of just 7,500 – and those spots will mostly be filled by white South Africans.
