if you were an unreconstructed segregationist from jim crow alabama, what would you do differently than this administration with regard to civil rights enforcement?
Breaking from me and @mjsdc.bsky.social : Newly installed AG Pam Bondi sent out more than a dozen memos in a 15 minute period on Wednesday. One of them told staffers to come up with "proposals for criminal investigations" of large companies that have DEIA initiatives. slate.com/news-and-pol...

Not for nothing, but announcing that the US is taking over Gaza the same week you’re neutering the FBI’s entire counterterrorism program isn’t that smart from a security perspective.

they are mostly targeting black employees so this is quite literally just a repeat of woodrow wilson’s segregationist purge of the federal government

Many people are citing tonight's airline crash over DC as the deadliest commercial crash since 9/11.
Except, it's not.
In Nov. 2001 an American Airlines flight went down in Queens, NY, killing 250+ people.

When it comes to throwback uniforms, leagues should make teams pick a uniform from one of a handful of years.
Like, this season your throwbacks can be from 1955, 1974, or 1989.

I'm not gonna say that student loan services are vultures but I get an email on the 1st day of every month that my payment is "due soon".
My payment is due on the 28th.
Like I don't know when one of my largest expenses is due.

The enthusiasm for a post-Assad Syria is good to see. The dude used chem weapons on his own citizens. Good riddance.
However, people need to understand that a power vacuum can bring other bad actors into power.
