NEW data I've received: Just 5% of people detained by ICE since October 1 have had violent criminal convictions, 3/4 had no criminal convictions at all. Most "criminals" had immigration, traffic, and vice offenses. Not the "worst of the worst"...

Pretty convincing evidence here that the Trump administration was planning to jailbreak and provide asylum for Bolsonaro -- and that Trump inadvertently revealed the plan.
And this, as the now-cliche goes, would have been a paralyzing scandal for any other administration.

there's that now-famous internet line about how climate change means watching clips of climate disasters on people's phones until you're the one filming it, and it feels like there's some parallel about watching fascist deportation goon squad videos until it's filmed on the streets you recognize

I suppose Obama knows first hand what it means to fail to deliver on a “inspiring hope.”
Barack Obama told Zohran Mamdani not just to “inspire hope,” but to “sustain it” and “deliver on it.” The NYC Mayor-elect says the team he builds in City Hall will be central to delivering that hope.

Remember that scene in the big short where they’re talking to some strippers and realize they’ve all taken out multiple loans they can afford? Meta is the stripper.
They're offloading all the debt onto special purpose vehicles (SPV) that are legally distinct entities propped up by promises from meta for decades of demand in compute. The banks take all the risk, Nvidia gets the equity and revenue, Meta gets the stock bump without the downside.
"It seems like a marvel of financial engineering: Meta is building a $27 billion data center in Louisiana, financed with debt, and neither the data center nor the debt will be on its own balance sheet."

SCOTUS says this is A-okay, so long as the person has brown skin.
The teenager told officers he was a U.S. citizen, but an officer broke the car’s driver’s side window and detained him. In a video, the boy can be heard telling an officer that he is a citizen, to which the officer replies, “Get out of the car” and “I don’t care.”

Driving back home from the post office, it seemed like every third car had brights on. Cannons of light blasting into my retinas. These are standard now! People tell me I should start wearing yellow-tinted glasses at night to cut glare. But should *I* be the one that has to adjust?
I wish we, like, regulated shit nowadays. Between car bloat, blinding headlines, and neighbourhoods packed with rental suites but no on-property parking, driving is an absolute nightmare now.

The Epstein case, like many of the excesses of Musk, Bezos, Zuckerberg, Thiel and the rest...and like the Trump Era as a whole, will be seen as defining a moment of gross national dysfunction. It will lead either to reform or to chaos. My latest. open.substack.com/pub/davidrot...

The “big tent” thing was always a transparent rebuke of the growing power of the left inside the Democratic Party.
The mantra also came to embody the problems of the modern party—namely that it doesn’t actually stand for anything.
Here we have reached its logical, laughable extreme. Beyond parody.
