Just a guy trying to make my way through life where the vast majority of people simply don’t understand that they are responsible for the logical consequences of their assertions. But I have a pretty cool wife and at least a couple of snazzy cats.

“Ah, just one more thing, sir. You’re blowing up those boats, saying they’re filled with drugs headed for the US. But then you go and pardon the guy who brought in 400 tons of cocaine. That’s billions of doses. Help me understand that.”

This is called “chain refoulment” and it’s illegal under both U.S. and international law. And the State Department and ICE know very well what Ghana is doing and simply don’t care.
ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.

I really wish we'd stop calling them climate "skeptics" or "vaccine skeptics", if you jump off a cliff we don't call you a "gravity skeptic"

The most important thing to remember about all this fantasy-engineering of the Constitution is Madison's warning: If we suck as a people, no clever constitutional schemes will save us.

It is amazing that the lawyers for Texas tasked with defending Texas' racial gerrymander are essentially throwing both DOJ and the Governor under the bus.

I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

Peter Thiel is in the Epstein emails, enjoying himself.

Peter Thiel is an overt, convinced, outspoken Nazi.

Peter Thiel's company is being paid by the UK government to crawl all over YOUR personal data.

Oswald Mosley's grandson runs his UK operation.

This is a lie. All 31 Moms for Liberty candidates in contested races lost their 2025 elections. The only "wins" were in uncontested races. Apparently, being hypocritical, book-banning scolds isn't so popular.

Some of philosophy’s most famous paradoxes are arguments by reductio—though not every reductio earns the title of “paradox.” Drawing on the writings of al-Fārābī, Boaz Schuman will offer an answer to why that is in today's CLPS seminar! 👇 hiw.kuleuven.be/clps/events/... #philsky #histphil #logic

abundantly clear that the six monsters currently running the Supreme Court do not think trans people are real and want them to go away

they know what will happen to someone presenting as the other sex when their passport doesn’t match and they want it to happen

their power must be broken
Honestly one of the worst, most disturbing paragraphs — on the basis of process, substance, and effect — I’ve read in a Supreme Court order or opinion in a very long time.

(I just about managed to cut my talk down to 14 minutes!)

Dick Cheney was a cruel bureaucrat who made corrupt institutions more abusive. Officials in those institutions then surrendered what was left of their morals to accommodate his evil vision. In time, those institutions became even more corrupt. What politicians say today will be revealing of the rot.

I continue to wonder when Americans will decide enough is enough. As Frederick Douglass reminds us:
