This sure seems more like the tyranny the Constitution is supposed to protect against than forgiving student loans.

Immigration is a fake problem. We have politicians on the one hand who want to use immigrants as scapegoats for our real ones and politicians on the other who are too cowardly to stand against them and tell the truth. That is the entire situation. Until that changes, people will continue to die.

I was grumbling about people saying this dumb thing last week. If you want to remove women from the workforce, you're creating a much more immediate and worse economic problem than anything to do with falling birth rate.

I guess the saving grace is this is even more unworkable than natalism

Years later i still think about how Ann Coulter once said about the New York Times, "My only regret with Timothy McVeigh is he did not go to the 'New York Times' Building." (Consider: only regret) and was rewarded with years of fawning coverage

I genuinely think boycotting the World Cup is some of the strongest leverage the Europeans have.

To everyone else: It’s been a trying week. I hope everyone is doing what they can in the midst of it to remember that our brains and bodies are feeling this, even when we’re not physically in the middle of it.

I know I don't have a ton of media followers, but I'll put this out there anyway: if you need someone to comment/offer context on the removal of the slavery exhibit at the President's House site in Philly, get in touch. I just finished an entire book on Americans' fight over Washington and slavery.

Hi everyone -- there is a general strike in Minnesota tomorrow to protest what the Trump administration and DHS are doing to our community. In solidarity with the action, I am going to donate my revenue from tmrw's newsletter to People over Papers, the Midway-Hamline Diaper Bank, & Every Meal. (1/2)

My fellow Asian Americans, we are not white. They cannot tell us apart. They do not think we belong here, no matter how many generations we have lived here.

Meanwhile, back on Earth, it was conservative judges who killed the criminal indictments of Trump in the January 6 and documents cases. That’s who did it, whatever you think of Garland.

People are kidnapping preschoolers and macing fully restrained protesters because they like the power to make others suffer, and I need us all to burn into our memories what they’re doing now because they’re definitely going to be asking for grace and forgiveness in the not too distant future.

Very disturbed by reports that some agents were not spit upon.
Border Patrol agents are very sad that everyone in Minnesota hates them.

“At each gas station where the agents stopped to use the restroom, groups of agitators appeared, yelled at them, stalked them, and even tried to prevent law enforcement vehicles from leaving…”

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.
