How they current admin views their power:
"“But we are telling people that this law will be enforced and it will allow us to know individuals in this country — who they are and THAT THEY ARE AUTHORIZED TO TRAVEL.” HLS Secretary in testimony to congress. Not much of a reach for random stops.

The only way this can happen, is if the "cause" is predetermined. The United States is about to ban vaccines in the US, making them unavailable to the average family, and plunging us back to the dark days of the 19th century.

I think journalists, policymakers and good govt types are struggling to understand DOGE because their mental model is that it is a government reform commission, operating like previous ones. Maybe. But it might be better to start thinking about it as a hostile takeover of the govt by oligarchs.

Isn't all mass violence caused by "self-radicalization". We may not know what excuse prompted the Las Vegas mass killer, but we know personal breakdown is involved in almost all of them.

Inspired by ISIS: From a Taylor Swift plot in Vienna to carnage in New Orleans
In the Bourbon Street rampage, a foiled attack on a European pop concert and other attacks, a pattern of self-radicalization breeds terrorists influenced by ISIS.

“At least remain neutral on whether racism is bad” is a very succinct form of the argument that’s been running roughshod over schools, newspapers, and major corporations since 2020.
It’s absolutely worth noting that the primary champion of transphobia in sport, embraced by TERFS and MAGA alike, is straight up racist. Gaines is calling out Caitlin Clark for saying in the most milquetoast way that being racist is bad, actually. This is JK Rowling’s fav athlete.

I fully expect Manchin, Sinema or both, to be given jobs in the Trump admin. Just an unbelievable betrayal. Manchin got what he wanted in bailing out the coal miner pension fund, and screw the rest of labor.

Thoughts on Hunter pardon:
- I don’t love it, but I completely understand why he did it
- with everything the incoming administration is telling us they’re going to do, we probably need to stop handcuffing ourselves with standards they won’t follow
