I love this line
This fall, Hawaii's supreme court rejected an argument that recording interrogations is burdensome for police: “If children can record everyday events with ease, law enforcement cannot claim hardship to record perhaps its most consequential investigative act.”
Hawaii Supreme Court Expands Rights of Defendants, and Once Again Rebukes SCOTUS
The justices ruled that Hawaii’s constitution requires police to record interrogations. And they vowed to protect due process for Hawaii residents—unlike, they said, the Roberts Court.

Capitalism didn’t give us the internet, internet was funded by the taxpayers & developed in the public sector for decades before it was spun off by Big Tech oligarchs to make a fortune on, capitalism gave us paywalls, video ads & pop up screens which make the experience miserable

Bad framing: ACIP voted to scrap the universal hepatitis B vaccine recommendation for newborns.

Accurate framing: Anti-vax conspiracy theorists appointed to ACIP by Robert Kennedy Jr., who made a fortune as an anti-vax profiteer, voted to expose babies to a preventable, incurable, deadly illness.

It’s just ad hoc rule-making to benefit Republicans and their billionaire owners.

That’s the Roberts Court.

There is no coherent legal theory that can square its rulings. There are no ethical standards.

It’s corrupt and illegitimate. And it must be dismantled.
According to this Supreme Court:

❌ Using race conscious admissions in college to give minorities a fair shot

✅ Using race to profile people on the street to detain for immigration sweeps

✅ Using race to disenfranchise minorities in elecciones

The only consistency is white supremacy.

The worst part about the boat strikes - regardless of who ordered what and besides the ultimate tragedy of lives lost - is they’re forever a stain on the professionalism and dignity of the United States military.

They’re an insult to every American who ever sacrificed to do the right thing.

An investigation found that David Sacks, a top White House AI & Tech Advisor, holds AT LEAST 449 stakes in companies with ties to AI that could be aided by his policies.

We cannot have AI policies written by the tech billionaires who will benefit from them.

He must resign.
