SCOTUS: considering race as one factor in a college applicant's file is blatantly unconstitutional

ALSO SCOTUS: considering race as one factor in targeting whom to detain and deport is cool cool cool

America has CTE. Collective head a mess.
When I left Substack in 2024 I wrote: "For those who are staying because they think the Nazi problem is fake or overblown...just wait. Substack mgmt just put out the welcome mat for some pretty horrible people. Many will surely answer.”

Surprise! A bunch did.

Yup, they're still at it.

Trying to separate “us” from “them” is so futile. There is no separation because the world needs each other, end stop. This is quickly become a clear cut good against evil thing, far transcending political identity.
still thinking about the Montana knife maker who said you don't have to worry about tariffs if you buy american. and then three months later, he realized he imports swedish steel and german equipment. and even MiUSA equipment costs $100k more now because of tariffs

Run on the most left and progressive policy ever. FDR on steroids. Bernie on steroids. More AOCs and Zohrans. Do not yield a single inch to centrist scolds
If I were running for office right now, I would unapologetically run on taxing the wealthy like never before in U.S. history. Not just because it would allow us to raise the standard of living, but also as a correction of this grand scale theft from the American people.

DHS Secty Kristi Noem said about military in LA: "We are staying here to LIBERATE the city from the socialists and burdensome leadership that this governor and that this mayor." Trump is calling for regime change in Calif. Yet media ignores it. My article deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/why-is-kri...
Why is Kristi Noem’s bone-chilling pledge of a “regime change” in Calif not getting media coverage?!
Trump wants to remove Democrats from office

These are some sick people. I know they get bounty/quote money but to turn in your own hospitality staff is a special madness. Where do they even find enough people willing to do this stuff?!
In the AC Hotel, we got word from a staff member that the agents were staying here and questioning the workers—the workers that were cleaning their rooms, the workers that were making their food. They were questioning them and asking for their ID and in a very aggressive way.

“Human” and “Alien” are oxymorons. Pass it along.

Vets voted for Trump by a wide margin.
"Veterans know the layoffs aren’t about saving money. They’re about weakening the institution and ultimately privatizing and gutting VA disability funding, as spelled out in Project 2025."

No ones really gonna see this and act on it (lol) but if you’re not into post post modern Naziism, do think twice before you go out there protesting. If you have kids, pets, health issues, aging parents etc, know full well that a crackdown is coming and they’re gonna lock dissenters up etc etc etc.

Holy fuck.

Worldwide Fascist take over continues unabated. But hey we got terrific doomscrolling.
Update: a later poll puts Nawrocki, the authoritarian populist, ahead
Exit polls give Rafał Trzaskowski, Mayor of Warsaw, 50.3% in the Polish presidential election. Now they start counting the votes
He just spoke to supporters

I really need people to understand that there is no humanitarian work which is “safe” from being negatively politicised in this ecosystem. The right will target everyone doing any kind of humanitarian work and demonise them. The goal is to alienate, isolate and destroy.

It’s really comforting that as food skyrockets in price, your neighbors are disappeared by masked goons, and people die en masse of preventable illness, Republicans and Democrats can come together and say: fuck this one trans teenager in particular for trying to run track with her friends

Your semi regular reminder that being born somewhere shouldn’t determine the quality of your life forever. That’s so asinine, not to mention subservient to the machine. The control is the point.
