My family and I, and the entire Japanese American community on the West Coast, were denied due process during our internment in WWII. It is a cherished, critical right for all people within the U.S.’s borders.

A few meadows near Nijkerk, the Netherlands. Differences in elevation are about 20 cm, one feet max. In the field one can't really see any elevation differences between parcels, yet changes in vegetation reveal groundwater discharge areas.

This is so lazy and hamfisted lol. "To my lackeys: release the evidence about my enemies and destroy the evidence about me. Thank you!"
Trump frustrated at never-ending Epstein saga, calls on DOJ to release names of only Dems connected to Epstein to “embarrass them” and suggests that despite legal requirement to release everything, DOJ should consider saying “no more.”

This is shockingly bad
A small (personal) example of this book’s intellectual dishonesty:
My father-in-law is reading In Covid’s Wake, and excitedly told me he found a passage where I’m quoted. The quote in question is me saying the FBI worked to censor speech on social media.
Huh? When did I say that?!

When we say "no, everything hasn't been digitized," I need you to understand that we really mean is that virtually nothing has been digitized. This is because the realm of primary sources that historians use is incomprehensibly large.
Seems like it's worth posting this one again.

it's nothing unique or particular about trans people, even though the fact that we can show up unpredictably in your family even if you have no ties to other trans people does make them nervous. it's just that they're mad bc they're tired of what liberalism asks of them

Biden ran a point and a half ahead of House Dems generally. But more relevant: you know what winning a seat by 13 points instead of 8 points gets you? Absolutely nothing. Even if Casten traded away a few points he didn't need anyway in order to go further on whatever issue, that's rational behavior!
when we said “defer electoral strategy to the actual politicians running for actual offices” we meant “after calculating wins above replacement somehow”

He says he’s coming out with a report to debunk Candace’s latest conspiracy theory around the assassination of Charlie Kirk.
