No ballistic evidence. No one hit. No injuries. No damage from gunfire. Local cops can’t find a “crime scene.” DHS claims shots were fired. I don’t believe them. chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/...

Court-created executive immunity is an error. The Constitution does create an immunity: for members of Congress, for things said in either chamber. There is no executive immunity, and that's on purpose. If you must ask why, re-read the Declaration of Independence with the question in mind.
#Trump may have immunity from the Supreme Court, but nobody else does — something #ICE agents would do well to remember.

Look what happens when you build protected bike lanes!

Instead of spending billions on new roads, the govt should build more protected bike lanes!

So, a Nazi YouTuber's Nazi wife is the GOP's Nazi town Treasurer. And GOP voters elect these fascists.

They're not blind to it, they're excited by it.

Housing policy impacts housing availability.

What a discovery!
Minneapolis built more housing than any other major Midwest city & it’s not a mystery why.

They allowed modest density housing types city-wide, cut regressive parking mandates, and made it easier to build apartments near transit.

The results: more homes + slowed rent growth.

TEN YEARS AGO

WRITER: "How about a novel with a crazy president who can't stop talking about his new $300 million gold ballroom while millions of Americans go without food."

AGENT: "That's a little heavy-handed. No politician would be that stupid. Come up with a more subtle, believable scenario."

From now on, when anyone asks how we’re going to pay for it, the answer should be we’ll take it out of the teargas budget.

A pyjama-clad 9 year-old VERY adorably just asked, at 9 pm, if I'd give her a latte-making masterclass, as she wanted to be a barista. I talked her through the steps and assured her the finished product was the best ever – because it was.

Unrelatedly I am now not going to sleep tonight.

The location isn't an accident. The terror campaign doesn't work unless it terrorizes.
Agents smashed a man's car window + dragged him out while he was waiting for his 8-months-pregnant wife.

This all happened in front of a daycare. "I just keep thinking about the kids and how they had to witness that. I saw a couple of children at the windows.”

With ICE acting like Gestapo psychopaths, good time to remind folks that being undocumented is a misdemeanor, and staying past your visa is only a civil matter.

Neither requires you to football tackle, zip tie, and beat and mace folks, or shoot tear gas and pepper spray at people. These are gross

Have you read about the multibillion-dollar foreign government bailouts and the Argentinian beef decision? It's not just states that voted against him that he's actively harming. It's everyone not actively bribing him to spend federal money bailing out their speculative schemes in Argentina.

I'm teaching an article I've taught 10 times before, so I tried comparing my discussion questions with ChatGPT's.

Some of them were just irrelevant, but mostly they were surface level ones you'd ask if you'd never read the paper. I'm so sad that some colleagues think this is acceptable pedagogy.
