Just as a general rule, if the "candid" video you're watching contains a complete comedy sequence, you should be very suspicious. This video tries to get around that by positing a security camera, but a security camera for where? Is this a home, an office, a breakroom? Doesn't look like any of them.

"Are you impressed by Richard Hanania?" has become a good litmus test.

Value debate over substance? Influenced by X? Have trouble with bad faith? Taken in by fancier words? Think showing you're open to toxic ideas makes you better than people who aren't?

Matt Yglesias, Jared Polis — any others?
it’s been pretty funny to see Polis’ addiction to posting completely end any discussion of him as a potential 2028 candidate

ICE ran over an immigrant’s legs with their SUV while attempting to detain him.

His family can’t locate him.

This is eerily reminiscent of the LA car wash raids where a man broke his leg and then disappeared for over a month.

ICE had him chained to a hospital bed under an assumed name

It kind of did with Obama— who had one of the most openly progressive platforms in a lot of ways, because he campaigned on healthcare and, crucially, a public option for it. The lessons the strategists learned, though, was apparently “cool graphic design and texting people is what works”

Actually somewhat-massive news, COCONA, one of the members of the all-Japanese based-in-Korea group XG, has come out as non-binary transmasc and having had top surgery

Which for an active idol in either country is just unheard of, never mind one at such a big group. They look amazing!

it *sounds* relatively reasonable. but in fact it's saying that you are looking for a way to join the attack rather than resist it.

which is really bad because...Trump is passing all these vicious anti trans policies. will Democrats reverse them if given the chance? would Newsom?

Can't believe our tax dollars are going to be spent settling the upcoming exorbitant defamation suit with Sabrina Carpenter, but maybe this is just how public arts funding is going to work now.
Sabrina Carpenter ratioed the White House after it used her song in an ICE video.

The WH deleted the post…but now it’s back with a new ICE video, this time using an altered clip from Carpenter’s SNL monologue.

Is a united front against fascism too much to ask for?
Mark Kelly is being directly targeted by Trump and he’s responding to those threats - good! - but then Kelly goes and votes to confirm one of Trump’s judicial nominees.

Why would you actively help your abuser? Come on, Dems. Show some damn courage and insight.

There's a dozen or so states taking action to either BACKFILL some or all of the expiring federal tax credits or are taking other actions to help mitigate the damage.

In some cases they're retooling & expanding existing state-based subsidy programs; in others they're newly-implementing policies.

have written that piece before but there's a whole lot of "oh wow this generation of kids are fucked" and nowhere near enough "huh what exactly have that generation of parents been doing and how can we not do that, going forward"
People are very hard on young people on here, lack of critical thinking, lack of responsibility etc, and then you see something like this and it all makes a different kind of sense.

Maybe another way to think of it is as the "participation line" - the income one needs to fully participate in expected aspects of US life without worrying about plunging into deprivation one way or another

3/ "Even if the U.S. were at war with the traffickers, an order to kill all the boat’s occupants if they were no longer able to fight 'would in essence be an order to show no quarter, which would be a war crime,' said Huntley, now director of the national security law program at Georgetown Law."

In case you’re wondering why Pete Hegseth is freaking out about a congressional video reminding the military not to participate in illegal orders:
To put a finer point on this whole thing: "Two people with direct knowledge of the operation" — presumably uniformed military leaders — are accusing the U.S. Secretary of Defense of personally ordering specific war crimes. That's a historic accusation.
Textbook war crime/extrajudicial killing

"Two survivors were clinging to the smoldering wreck. The Special Operations commander overseeing the Sept. 2 attack ... ordered a second strike to comply with Hegseth’s instructions."

I've yet to play The Roottrees are Dead and Verho (it's been an extraordinarily busy year), but I bought both at launch because I think it's a class act to just hire talent, and that's something that should be rewarded.
