Catholic adventurer. Herpetophobe. Don’t call me “Junior”. Endlessly fascinated by medieval artifacts, all of which should be in a museum. Choose wisely.

Czech editor in-chief Jakub Patočka on today's Czech elections:

"I see no hope at all, and I believe that here in the Czech Republic, in a short time, a regime could emerge that is worse than Orban's Hungary. And that is something I have seen develop since the last election four years ago.”

wtf is he even talking about? I mean AI can be wrong but approximately 7K law enforcement in Oregon vs. 14K (less with firings, but still not yet half that) in the FBI. This guy just pulls stuff out of his ass and as a result is not surprisingly full of 💩

“Laurie Eckman, 84, said she and her husband Richard Eckman, also 84 and a Vietnam war veteran, were rushed by federal officers “for no apparent reason.” She said her husband was leaning on his walker and wearing his Vietnam veterans cap as he was pushed to the ground.”

Lk 17, 5-10, this Sunday.
After receiving a request from the Apostles for greater faith, the Lord moves quickly to a rather strict teaching about what it means to be an obedient servant.
This obedience unto service is perhaps where our faith is most often tested.

To the extent the administration tries to justify its killings in the Caribbean by claiming there's an armed conflict with Tren de Aragua (lol), here is the IC's April assessment.

TdA is not an "organized armed group" capable of being in an armed conflict.

OPINION: “It’s important to understand why the ghosts of Mississippi’s past still haunt us,” MFP News Editor Ashton Pittman writes. “While lynchings aren’t the epidemic they once were in the Magnolia State, this remains a place that is still shaped by systemic racism and oppression.”

“It was a glimpse into our new reality created by the Court’s decision in Noem v. Vasquez Perdomo…Justice Kavanaugh wrote that federal immigration officers can stop and briefly detain anyone they have ‘reasonable suspicion’ to believe is in the country unlawfully.”

What’s a true shithole country? One that zip-ties children’s hands and puts them in cages. One that sends people to a mega prison in El Salvador without due process. One where Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents wear face masks to conceal their identities. And so on...

For political alliances, basically my only question is “are you peacefully opposed to Trump’s authoritarian project?” A yes to that and we’re on the same side; we can become opponents and argue about other things at a later TBD date.

Pleased to speak with @nickturse.bsky.social and be quoted alongside Sarah Yager.

The Trump administration is repurposing the war on terror framing to apply it to narcos.

But the lethal strikes in the Caribbean represent something new, different, and dangerous.

Just to note. January 23, 2019 there was a vote to reopen government (HJ RES 28, roll call vote 46) when the govt had been shut down for 30 days.

Mike Johnson voted “no” on that.

They didn’t seem to mind shutdowns then
