Trump has already surrendered. They're just negotiating, and I'm using that word very loosely, the conditions.

Crypto investors can sell bitcoin at a loss, buy it back the SAME day, and still claim a tax break. That loophole is worth nearly $24 BILLION over a decade. Time to close it. Tax the rich.

Japanese-American internment was the last time the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 was invoked...before the Trump 2.0 administration, that is. Such actions by the federal gov't used to be considered a national disgrace. bsky.app/profile/atru...

According to future Governor and Senator Mark Hatfield (who was one of those white students), "just our presence there at the railroad station" was taken as an "nose-thumbing" protest by the Legionnaires who were there "taking down our names."

In 1942 when ~10 Japanese-American students from Willamette University in Salem, OR were transported to internment camps, a group of white students went to the train station to express solidarity with them. They encountered a group of angry, racist American Legion members celebrating the occasion.

I've spent a week listening to people go on Seattle radio shows and podcasts and claim that my reporting was false and unfair, and say that I should feel deep shame about my work. I stood by my reporting then, and I stand by it now that it has been officially confirmed by SPD in two different ways.

Susan Collins has been trying to take credit for bodycams after voting against an amendment in early June that would have required bodycams. Now ICE is saying footage may never see the light of day. Collins could have required release, but she gave ICE billions in new funds w/no strings attached.

I find this administration’s complete inability to politically calibrate on a single issue utterly baffling. You’re going down in flames on absolutely everything with Nixon-tier approval numbers and their only strategy is to just try to beat people harder with a stick.

Brian Heywood's I-645 would blow a $13 billion hole in funding for K-12 education, healthcare, childcare, and other essential services That's real harm to real families while the wealthy few get a massive tax cut. Vote @no645.bsky.social no645.com

The next logical step for Flock/Axon/Surveillance tech is to move to as many mobile platforms as possible, so that are proposing ingesting data from: - Ridersharing cars - Cop cars - Busses - Waymo - Semi-trucks This makes it harder for people to sabotage cams, and offloads the liability to others

It’s neither. The genocide of nearly everyone on Earth isn’t “cute,” and it isn’t history. It’s fiction.

completely real question i had to answer for the hospital im getting top surgery at

Sorry, if you believe in broken windows policing, that has to apply to white collar crime. If you let anti-social behavior go unpunished in finance, congrats, you have created a completely unaccountable environment.

Every 'reasonable concern' that makes the headlines today is a totally fabricated 'issue' and if you go around saying 'people are right to have concerns about immigrants/trans people in sport' you've swallowed bullshit by the bucket load and we see you.

this sounds politically boring but it is just standard New Deal thought and it was the benchmark for rational (mainstream) political economy until the Reagan era rebooted the previously-failed project of laissez faire (and subsequent Dems acquiesced to it)

As Adam Johnson points out today, one of Bari Weiss's early investors in The Free Press—Andreessen Horowitz—is Flock's biggest funder. x.com/adamjohnsonC...

Bill Cassidy finally figured out a way to bump his RFK Jr. confirmation vote out of the first sentence of his obit.

This is incredibly disturbing. The number of cases in Mississippi alone of Black people who met their deaths in dubious/highly suspicious ways, only for authorities to shrug it off and do a piss poor job if investigating...there are so many names
