The US federal government is openly warring against its own nonwhite population in a way no one alive has ever experienced. It’s not even getting to hide it. The overt bigotry is comparable to Jim Crow. And our pathetic, cowed, putrid political class just keeps pretending it isn’t even happening.

There is no constitutionally legitimate scenario in which we are being de facto governed by the White House Deputy Chief of Staff using a half-dead president as his sock puppet. We went out of our way to amend the Constitution on precisely this point.

Reading Sedgwick's book on Traditionalism recently has confirmed for me that arguing with reactionaries about material conditions is pointless, they fundamentally do not care.
They will straight up tell you that dying of a preventable disease at 25 is better than the 'spiritual death' of modernity

That time, ~400 years ago, when Jesuits dragged a new world turkey nearly 2,000 kilometers from Goa to northern India.
Fun, but also reflective of premodern India's integration in global networks of trade and travel.

CDC Quietly Turned Off Its Vaccine Search Tool. It’s Not Clear When It’s Coming Back.
“I have heard that they are planning to ‘update it’ and shudder to think what that will mean,” Demetre Daskalakis, a former member of CDC leadership, told NOTUS.

The National Guard is not a law enforcement agency. It is untrained in a policing agency's standards, techniques, tactics and mission in any nation of laws. Only in a police state do officials equate military units with policing.
Did anyone ask why Trump is blaming Biden when his folks vetted and approved his asylum this year?

Everyone (esp media) pay attention. In 2021 almost every Republican attacked the Biden administration and State dept for being too slow in approving Afghanistan special visas as Afghanistan fell.
Now they are attacking Biden for doing what they asked him to do.

This is who we're deporting while we're importing sex traffickers like the Tate brothers and white supremacists who are nostalgic for Apartheid.
I feel much safer today knowing that we deported a Babson College student back to a country where she hasn't lived since childhood.
She wasn't even flying internationally. She was flying to Texas.

There is talk going around that DHS is now arresting people who fly *domestically* if they have final orders of removal.
Undocumented youth should consider consulting a lawyer to find out what their record is -- especially those whose parents had prior interactions with immigration.

I keep hearing about how Dems are the party of "identity politics" and yet it's Republicans who always reach to identity for everything.
God forbid we talk about guns. There have been 452 mass shootings this year; this shooting doesn't even make the list because fewer than 4 people were shot.

It’s really funny how a generation will roll its eyes at parents who watch Fox News but doesn’t see why being immersed in Twitter is having the same effect. Lots of serious people show up on Fox News too but that shouldn’t be your primary source on the news.
