We found more than two dozen cases of immigration agents using "less lethal" weapons in ways that appear to flout the government's own rules, including by aiming at someone’s head, spine or groin or deploying chemical agents near children.

Why is this reported as some cutesy story every time it comes up, rather than the affront to the Constitution that it is? There is no context in which this is funny, quirky, or just "Trump being Trump." This is not charming patter; it's Putin territory.

Among everything else fascinating about the Louvre heist, it's delightful it took place at 9.30am. Most of us, if planning a massive jewel theft, would be setting an alarm for the middle of the night. The French remind us you can have a decent night's sleep and THEN do it.

a first step to organizing people to do anything right now is just bringing people together for anything—to vent. to eat together. to make art.
to remind people we have each other. to ask what we can do together. to keep the despair at bay.

The debt, deportation, and death bill has passed. Congress further decimates care work to fund violence work.
Vital services eviscerated and ICE becomes the highest-funded federal law enforcement agency ever known. It hasn’t been sold this way, but it’s a massive public jobs program for fascists.
