Dumb shits got us into this mess, maybe being even bigger dumb shits will save us.
This is like any time in Succession where Kendall tries to buddy up to anyone outside his class only to find that they all hate him.
I'm at the Olympics and the entire stadium booed JD Vance. 😌

Not the most important thing but Usha has got the dead-eyes smiling down pat.
Vice President JD Vance gets roundly booed at the opening ceremony of the Milano-Cortina 2026 Olympics. "Those are a lot of boos for him, whistling jeering," says the presenter. US athletes receive a warm welcome from fans, though.

16 year olds are not fuckable. There is nothing remotely erotic about them. They look and act like children because they are children. What the fuck is wrong with all these freaks.
This level of apologia (from Megan McArdle in a podcast with Josh Barro and Ross Douthat) is fucking appalling. Idk what else there is to say.

Everything you’re hearing from the Trump administration is a lie. Today was one of the most active days in Northeast since the entire Operation Metro Surge began.

Nothing is changing on the ground in Minneapolis, no matter what headlines Trump and Homan try to create.

I need everyone to know that on the crochet subreddit the mods made a big post about how they're taking a week off because there was too much fighting/political posts. so there's currently no mods on r/crochet and people are being absolutely insane

They’ll do these redemptive pieces on people contributing to this shit before they exalt anyone actually doing something because they relate to this woman’s cowardice, and they desperately want to believe that their own hidden discomfort makes them a good person.
“.. I’m sad for our country,” she said. “I don’t think that the escalation that we’ve seen, particularly in Minnesota, I don’t think it is. … ”

She paused for another eight seconds ..

“.. productive.”

In the way that Democrats have rotating villains, Republicans have rotating heroes.
GOP Sen. Tillis said he'll still BLOCK Trump's Fed pick until the DOJ stops investigating Fed Chair Jerome Powell.

Sen. Lisa Murkowski initially said she'd block Trump's pick, too, but hasn't commented since Warsh's nom. Her office didn't respond to my inquiry. talkingpointsmemo.com/news/kevin-w...

Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

The ICE killings in Minneapolis evoke Selma but the day-to-day tactics in Minneapolis remind me of the Birmingham Bus Boycott: a grinding, continuous, citywide and logistically demanding effort of non-cooperation over months to break an unjust status quo.
A manager for the Immigrant Defense Network told MPR News that back in November, 2,500 people were trained as constitutional observers. Now, the total is nearly 30,000 trained observers in 77 of Minnesota's 87 counties.

It’s very true that Homan is retreating but it’s also true that 2,300 agents — or even fewer — can continue to inflict state terrorism on a broad scale here. I reject doomerism but also the inevitability of victory based on today’s events. Keep fighting & prepare for the long haul.
3,000 wasn’t enough to break Minnesota and they’re removing 23% without any concessions.

Homan has already talked about how they needed to rotate agents because it’s tough being “in the theater”. And they’re cutting their forces 23%? Might as well pull them all out.

They are so cooked.
Trump's border czar Tom Homan announces he's removing 700 immigration officers from Minnesota, effective immediately.

Remembering that study of people who joined the Argentine secret police that basically came to the conclusion that they did it because they were otherwise unemployable.
Agent: These guys were all threatening us yesterday with hand guns.
...
Agent: *Hand* guns, like threatening to shoot us.

Reporter: You mean like with hand symbols?

A: Pulling them out, trying to engage us.

R: Pulling out literal guns?

A: No. Making... assuming we were going to do something.

This is one of the most important cases that galvanized Black people in the late 40s through the 1950s. Almost every major Black leader had a comment about it. It is also one of the most successful defense committees that was organized in the 20th century. Almost no one knows about it today.
On this day in 1948, an all-white jury sentenced a Black woman and two of her teenage sons to death for killing an armed white man in self-defense.

History teaches us if you’ve hired a volunteer army of poor people to violently enact an unpopular and psychologically-fraught occupation the one thing you should always do is skimp on paying them regularly. Keeps them on their toes.

Good to see that many Dem elected officials now want to be seen getting involved in the cases of immigrants who have been wrongly detained by ICE.

Let's spare a word for @vanhollen.senate.gov, who did this for Kilmar Abrego Garcia back when wise pundits said this was politically dangerous.
