Higher education does not make people more liberal. It educates (or at least tries to) people to assess evidence based on proven knowledge, put society into context, and think about the road forward. If that makes one less "conservative," maybe that "conservatism" is simply not worth keeping.

Hakeem Jeffries posted pictures of two Rep. Members posing with “Young Republicans” who were part of a racist text thread (as reported by Politico).

In response, Mike Davis (well-connected in Trump World & on the Hill) called Jeffries a “house slave” for George Soros - proving Jeffries’ point.

Basically, the unhonourable six of the SCOTUS are declaring that racism does not exist any more. Anything to fulfill their long dream of a fascist America.

my main takeaways from listening to the Supreme Court oral argument today are

-the writing is on the wall for the Voting Rights Act
-the Republican justices are now throwing racist spaghetti at that wall; they'll pass of whatever sticks as the opinion's rationale

The Conservative Justices Have So Many Ideas For How to Kill the Voting Rights Act
The Republican justices already know where they’re going. They just have to figure out which route they’re going to take to get there.

Wow. Trump's masked federal agents tear-gassed a crowd in Chicago and ended up gassing a bunch of local Chicago cops who were there to *deescalate tensions.* One local cop was captured on film washing out his eyes with a hose:

Trump was made godking by the SCOTUS, but everyone else in the chain of command should be punished by the full extent of the law.

POLITICO: “.. They referred to Black people as monkeys and ‘the watermelon people’ and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies .. and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.

Vaguely remembered that today is Remembrance Day for far-right media personality Charlie Kirk. Though his 15 minutes of fame ran out, let‘s remember his own words, and pay attention to those who aim to respect them.

Bold prediction: millions will show up at NoKings. NYT reporters will do a live update coverage. But NYT leadership will put it four screens below the main, for about two hours, then print it on page A19.

If we must do a comparison of which American president did a better job securing the release of Israeli hostages, the answer is Joe Biden.
thefred.bsky.social
Biden's cease-fires got 135 living hostages released. Trump's got 20 (which is less than it would have been had he enforced the continuation of the January cease fire).

As usual, it was all projection when Vance and his fasciocultists spread the lie that immigrants are killing your dogs. They are the ones doing exactly that.

CBP agents knocked on an El Paso home at 7:15 a.m.

The owner asked to secure his Rottweiler, Chop, in the bathroom.

While he got his ID, agents opened the door and shot Chop.

The family tried to save him as he bled out on the kitchen floor.

넷플릭스 드라마 다 이루어질 지니 시청 시작했는데, 김은숙 작가는 도깨비2 노렸는데 이병헌 감독은 안녕프란체스카2 만들고 있는 느낌이다. 나야 재밌지만, 왜 갈등 후 감독이 중간에 쫒겨났는지 훤히 보이는 듯 하다.

Saying it again: NYT reporters are still producing great stuff in terms of pointing out racism, fascism, and general idiocy, but NYT editors are proactively undermining them with sanewashed copyediting and refusal to promote those. This article needs to be circulated full force.

Update: Bari Weiss’s first pitch at CBS — a roundtable with Antony Blinken, Mike Pompeo, and Hillary Clinton that ended up being a virtual interview with Clinton & Condoleezza Rice — has about 150 viewers on YouTube.

Added with the 24/7 CBS stream, it’s just over 1200 viewers.

But in 63.2% seriousness, I think the Nobel committee could simply start a new category, give it to Trump, make him happy, and save the world from the dehumanizing whims of the most powerful twelve-year old. Nobel Piece Prize.
