For @msnownews.bsky.social, I wrote an article about how ICE Watch is grounded in sociological theories of violence prevention.

The reality is that most men will only commit public violence in extremely specific scenarios and ICE Watch disrupts the conditions necessary for escalation.

rare to see an american politician speak in these terms and it rocks

Happy #caturday.
Queen Mab is doing well in her recovery. She still is a little cyber kitty to monitor her glucose. She’d also like to remind you that what happened in #venezuela was an illegal act that’s all for oil and to distract from the #epstein files.

She’s such a trooper.

Not to be controversial but I think we should use tools and resources to make people's lives less miserable instead of more

Like Jim Crow (and slavery), mass incarceration operates as a tightly networked system of laws, policies, customs, and institutions that operate collectively to ensure the subordinate status of a group defined largely by race - Michelle Alexander

The FBI put a thousand agents (their own words) on trying to hide all the links between Trump and Epstein. They failed. When people found some additional photos of Trump in the release, the DOJ promptly DELETED THEM FROM THE DOCUMENT RELEASE.

Once in a century political opportunity here, if only there were a party to claim it

U.S. pals:
Do. Not. Donate. To. Salvation. Army.

There are better charities out there. Much better.

lol wut. dropping from 42 percent approval to 36 percent approval seems pretty significant. apnews.com/article/trum...

"A citizens group in Ontario, California is spearheading an effort to make the community aware of incidents involving federal immigration agents.

They're placing signs at the locations that read, 'ICE stole someone here'..."

made a similar point on the opinions podcast this week in response to the idea that epstein is a dead end. not only are actual voters interested in this but it divides the gop and puts pressure on the president. it would be political malpractice to treat it as a sideshow

I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

For no particular reason….posting former U.S. Attorney General John Mitchell’s mugshot before he went to Federal prison for committing numerous crimes on behalf and or/at the direction of President Nixon including obstruction of justice and conspiracy.

Starbucks’ CEO makes 6,666x what the average @sbworkersunited.org barista does. It would take less than one day of sales to finalize a fair contract.

Baristas at Starbucks corporate stores nationwide are on strike to fight this corporate greed and get the fair contract they deserve.

you could fact check this — there aren’t 30 million illegal immigrants and there is no evidence that the presence of an immigrant in say houston has any impact on housing in madison, wisconsin — or you could note straightforwardly that this is just nazi rhetoric

Democratic emails the day after they once again bend the knee

Kinda funny the Dems did the shutdown largely as a show for the base and now people are madder than before lol

The two party system is incompatible with democracy.

We must change our electoral system to restore democracy.
