Just want to point out that the ACLU was and is still in full support of Citizens United. More than anything else, that ruling got us here.

Shoutout to the pundits who insisted Trump wouldn’t actually jail his political opponents, when less than six months in he’s now arrested a sitting judge, the mayor of New Jersey’s largest city, and a member of Congress.

Elon Musk’s decision to block @ekremimamogluresmi.bsky.social ‘s X account only in Turkey — where he represents the democratic opposition — is alarming. If President Erdogan weren’t in power, and if Musk didn’t share this political alignment, this act of censorship would never have happened. 1/2

Trump for Pope, a third term, re-opening Alcatraz.

These stories all serve a critical purpose.

To distract from the story of our age: that the President of the United States is enriching his family with billions by running a corruption racket right out of the Oval Office.

Automobile dependence erodes public health in many ways: blunt force trauma (#1 cause for children and young adults), air pollution (CVD, asthma), noise pollution (QoL, dementia) but perhaps the most pernicious is that it has almost completely displaced walking. www.sciencedaily.com/releases/201...
Less than 25 percent of Americans walk for more than ten minutes continuously in a typical week
Many people in the U.S. do not walk, bike or engage in other forms of active transportation, missing an important opportunity to improve their cardiovascular health, concludes a new study.

Clay Jackson's story is picking up momentum. Jackson is the Texas attorney who was visited by two law enforcement officers at his home after giving some legal advices to an undocumented family. He was fired from his job with FNF after talking to me about the incident.

Here's Judd Legum:
Fortune 500 company abruptly fires lawyer who helped immigrant family
On March 4, Clay Jackson, an attorney in the Dallas area, was at a gas station near his home when the attendant asked if he would help a local immigrant family.

This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

I’ve been deliberately buying US-made products for years, paying more to avoid poor labor practices & because shipping is bad for the environment. If people wanted & could afford US-made, we’d have more US-made options. The demand isn’t there. Tariffs won’t change that.

Shame is normal and healthy in appropriate doses, it’s the lubricant that allows a non-delusional assessment of your actually-existing actions and character grind against believing in noble things and having a moral code worth anything.
