Here are some texts I got from an immigration lawyer friend of mine. Shared with permission. Some of the bleakest shit I’ve ever heard.

I feel like we need to keep saying this because it’s so insane: This is a legal U.S. resident who has been detained for over a month now for his political opinions.
The Department of Homeland Security denied Mahmoud Khalil permission to attend the birth of his first child, who was delivered at a New York hospital on Monday, according to emails reviewed by The New York Times.
Mahmoud Khalil’s Son Arrives After ICE Refuses to Let Him Attend Birth
Mr. Khalil, a permanent resident detained in Louisiana, had requested a monitored furlough for the birth. His request was denied in less than an hour.

We live in a timeline where there’s a non-zero chance the Sec of HHS has convinced POTUS to try a “natural immunity” approach to the economy… “we just need everyone to get bankruptcy to develop natural antibodies against financial ruin!” Anybody have the number for The Time Keepers? I need out…
It's been noted that the last time stocks fell this sharply, we were in the midst of a global health pandemic. To which I say, please be patient.

Ya know, for a country so obsessed with The Second Amendment, it’s odd that when the exact reason for 2A occurs they all forget it exists.
When they do a 'Hamilton' remake about 2020s instead of late 1700s, here will be the principals they have to work with:

The Trump administration seriously texted war plans to The Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg. The stupidity is horrifying! Watch @timmiller.bsky.social's response.

Okay sure it sounds bad that our alcoholic neo-Nazi Secretary of Defense randomly texted ongoing war plans to the Editor of the Atlantic Magazine, but YOU try running the Pentagon while you’re drunk.

I’ve been thinking a lot about the dangers of fervent nationalism in Canada. While it seems good now it will go down a dark path that may end up with the same fascism we’re trying to avoid.
I spoke to a journalist @erinblondeau.bsky.social about this

How Pierre Poilievre’s ‘Canada First’ slogan parallels white nationalist ideology
Canadian Conservatives appear to be inspired by Donald Trump's "America First" platform, a slogan with roots in white supremacy and racism.

Democracy is burning, and we need sites like Bluesky more than ever. And Senator Durbin wants to repeal 230, which would massively stifle the ability of sites like Bluesky to exist, while massively empowering X and Meta.

Why?

It seems that someone in his office doesn't understand 230.
It’s time to repeal Section 230. We must be able to take social media companies to court for addicting kids and enabling drug trafficking on their platforms.
Sen. DURBIN: Fentanyl often gets to our kids and young people through the internet.

Section 230 absolves social media companies from any responsibility. “That has got to end.”

SOTU seats are not assigned. There are general seating areas for each body (House, Senate, SCOTUS,etc) but there are honored seats for each party’s leadership and they’re even trying to squat those.

If it doesn’t sort out, be aware you may see applause on both sides of the aisle but they may be GOP
