A brief seminar on the domestic violence 'cycle of violence' can explain why she would cook him dinner after he abused her. He says she has mental issues. That's also an indicator of an abuser trying to trivialize Ms. Moreno's account of abuse.
Miller & Moreno are both grotesque The Plot Thickens Did this GOP congressman Max Miller threaten to out his FIL & GOP senator Bernie Moreno? A messy family matter is starting to spill into public view. www.lgbtqnation.com/2026/07/did-... #VoteOutAllGOP

It’s the same ICE office where this happened youtu.be/s0Iomvzi3JQ?... It’s not far from where I’m standing rn (am with the kids, so that’s the only reason I’m not at the facility at the moment
New: We found 50 cops who misused Flock cameras and other license-plate readers for personal purposes, often to spy on their girlfriends or ex-wives. He "watched every single move I made. ... Who do you turn the chief of police in to?" wapo.st/3S6rTuo
more generally: any American seriously committed to democracy (apart from other ideological commitments) needs to grapple with the fact that racists and ethnonationalists are a permanent fifth column in US society and a chronic threat not just to social justice but to social order itself. (1/2)
[Christopher M. Federico]relatedly, one thing that has happened to me as I have aged is that I have cast off every last vestige of residual Gen X free-speech libertarianism and now believe that some kind of Volksverhetzung is a prerequisite for civilization in a country that has our history of violent racism
ICYMI: After yet another brutal defeat in court, Trump"s DOJ voter roll crusade is now 0-19. A federal judge dismissed its Illinois case with prejudice, ruling that Congress never gave DOJ “a general auditing power” over state election officials.
This is an administration willing to inflict real harm on ordinary people to protect its own power….
The schools that stood up to Trump thug demands—first Wesleyan and Princeton, then Harvard, then many others who were emboldened—have won in court and earned honor in history and support from alums. Columbia showed that appeasement always loses. It's never enough. Don't do it, Yale.
Gregg GonsalvesNeed to have some frank talk about #Yale President McInnis, General Counsel Alexander Dreier and the trustees. First, they keep saying that they are compelled to enter into a settlement with the #Trump administration. Untrue. 1/
Good short video on this topic ☺️
It is a textbook example of sustained, targeted civil resistance that can undermine Trump administration policies. By chipping away at corporate supporters of programs like ICE, citizen activism can erode and stop these initiatives.

Awful: The local press in Maine is crediting Susan Collins for getting Trump to agree to ICE bodycams nationwide. It's cynical BS: She voted for $70 billion in ICE money and against requiring bodycams. But this kind of thing is why she could still win. New from me: newrepublic.com/article/2138...
The outbreak of the Bundibugyo strain is the largest recorded in the central African country, claiming 296 lives in a week
If for no other reason than that it tracks the Generic Congressional Vote back to July 1997, bookmark this CNN poll release. Also: polling on what kind of party change Dems want to see: younger candidates, new leadership; taking on Trump; and a party both more lefty *and* more centrist than today.

When I say billionaires tilt the free and fair marketplace of ideas with their money, this is the kind of thing I mean. Money into academic centers and thinktanks changes public debate and creates bias! Our goal should be to level the free speech playing field.
Needhi Bhalla 💅🏽so much I wanted to quote here about why we as scientists seem to find ourselves in this current political situation: “When and why powerful and wealthy outsiders chose to pluck scholars and ideas from obscurity should be of key concern to those of us interested in the independence of science.”
I hope you’re sitting down for this. The shooter at the In-N-Out Burger in Twin Falls, Idaho that killed 3 people and injured 2 people is a Republican, white male, and prob a born again christian. I’m as shocked as you are.
