J6 Pedos and Cop Killers get pardoned. Asthmatic Korean PhD student who grew up here, has a green card, a silly weed misdemeanor 15 years ago, and is trying to create a Lyme disease vaccine, is detained without due process after coming back from his bro’s wedding. I’m sorry, what is our country???
“Tae Heung “Will” Kim has lived in the United States since he was 5 and is a green-card holder pursuing his PhD at Texas A&M University, where he is researching a vaccine for Lyme disease, said his attorney, Eric Lee.” 🧪

Brutal account of what it’s like to teach at the University of Florida right now in the NYT—extraordinary climate of fear. People afraid to say intersectional and talk about lynchings. Fake students trying to entrap Muslim faculty or just making things up altogether. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/07/o...

Anyhow, this fucking sucks and if you want to support truly independent media that always has listener experience in mind, please think about supporting my new show @hyperfixedpod.bsky.social. Premium listeners get bonus episodes, among many other things.

I just noticed that Spotify has deleted the entire Reply All/Gimlet Media website and took with it almost 200 very readable transcripts, and redirected the site to Spotify itself, which generates ugly and unreadable AI transcripts of the episodes. Big fuckup dudes.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez pulled in a massive fundraising haul amid progressive calls for her to launch a 2028 primary challenge against Sen. Chuck Schumer
Ocasio-Cortez raised $9.6 million in three months, smashing her own record
It’s a massive haul for the progressive lawmaker who has been barnstorming the country with Bernie Sanders.

AOC: I saw on Fox, Jeanine Pirro says that they found so many babies and two year olds and four year olds receiving social security. I got a notice for you Jeanine Pirro: those babies receive social security because their parents died. That’s not a waste. That’s humanity. That’s America.

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you.

The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.

Innocent people — undesirables, political dissidents — are being sent to camps here and abroad. A scapegoated minority is being persecuted, made an example of. Wrongthink is being stricken from government institutions and civil society. There is no more "if" authoritarianism arrives. It's here.
“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

What do you call humans being kidnapped and sent to another country to be imprisoned in shackles and forced to perform intense physical labor while living in horrid conditions under the threat of daily physical violence and rape?

Open a history book. You can do it. I believe in you.

you had a supermajority in congress and complete control of the government and you pushed for romneycare instead of single-payer and now we won’t even get to keep that because you wouldn’t prosecute bush and cheney and show republicans that consequences exist for even the highest office in the land
Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act.

With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.
