This is so terrifying. I can’t even watch it. Like a horror movie
Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.

They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.

This is what I've been saying! Stop saying that you're hoping the courts will take care of it. They know the courts are going to hold them to account that's why they're trying to exhaust them to destruction.
increasingly obvious that the first big Enabling Act style push here is going to be the destruction and replacement of the federal court system. who knows if they'll succeed but that's the next base they're heading for

Ok that made me laugh
I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes

The press can only focus on one thing at a time. I wish they would focus on the things that could actually be changed with sweeping legislation as opposed to the things that will be controlled through but checks and balances that have survived.
I am really frustrated that the press is discussing the destruction of USAID as something that has happened rather than an illegal action that will likely be undone in two weeks when courts tell the world that it was illegal.

We failed to stop fascism's rise. Now it's dancing about on the White House lawn. I don't know how to fix all this but I do know that the shit we've been doing won't get us out of this one.

This is probably a big part of why he did it, but I think a bigger reason is pure impunity. He knows the media that matters to him won't care, there will be no professional consequences, nothing will matter to anyone but the people he lives to anger.

My holiday can be summed up with two words. Nerd feasts! I have been having a blast making foods highlighted in both d&d cookbooks, and my game of thrones cookbook. Tomorrow, there will be honeyed chicken, mulled dwarven wine, mixed Elven berries, and hand pies.

really incredible story here! amazing comparing this to the 2014 Ebola outbreak. gives one some measure of hope.
In October, Rwanda reported its first Marburg virus outbreak, for which there are no vaccines or treatments. Following a COVID-19-style mass test, track, and trace operation, the case fatality rate plummeted, and the outbreak has now been declared over. NPR https://buff.ly/49f7esn

I'm totally OK with being called woke. It just means that I'm showing off my green flags. Happy to follow others with green flags.
