Hey, Charlottesville: the sunset will start getting later this week! We've hit the earliest point of 4:54 PM, and on Thursday it'll be 4:55 PM. We made it.

Sunrise will bottom out at 7:30 AM, and start to get earlier again in a month's time.

Fascists are desperate for violent disruption they can use an excuse for state violence and power grabs.

They have trouble with mockery, goofiness, and fun.

That holds across just about every type of authoritarianism. They like being feared for cruelty. They hate being laughed at and humiliated.
Streets are still closed off in front of the Portland ICE facility at 8:30pm. Protesters have gathered on a side street. Dance party in progress.

Taken just a few minutes ago outside the ICE facility in Portland that Trump claims is under siege. My message to Donald Trump is this: we don’t need you here. Stay the hell out of our city.

What's up with Justice Jackson? She started making her mark and speaking out early, and some of her dissents are so pointed Kagan and Sotomayor don’t even join them. The far right is out for her, and even Republican justices are getting snarky.

And yet, in just five counties of Central Texas (out of 254 total in the state)--Hays, Williamson, Bexar, Travis, and Kerr--more than 800,000 people voted for Vice President Harris last year.

That's more than the total number of votes for VP Harris in 24 states and D.C.

Trump was always going to unleash the military on us. He needs a reason to suspend elections. Using LA as a pretext to police the streets is just using the people his base empathizes with the least to accomplish what was always the plan.

people need to internalize, very quickly, that federal research grants are a hypercompetitive contracting process not charity, and that what Uncle Sam gets in return for that money is American dominance in the future
