Some rare great abortion news in tonight’s newsletter:

- A federal court ruled that the FDA violated the law by imposing unnecessary restrictions on mifepristone

- The New York Supreme Court rejected Texas’ attempt to issue a judgement against an abortion provider here

Happy Halloween!

It was never “Trump Derangement Syndrome.” It was also a clear warning of what was to come.

Victor Shi posts: “This was published one year ago. Everything is right.”
The image shows a New York Times Sunday Opinion page with bold black text reading:
“DONALD TRUMP SAYS HE WILL PROSECUTE HIS ENEMIES, ORDER MASS DEPORTATIONS, USE SOLDIERS AGAINST CITIZENS, ABANDON ALLIES, PLAY POLITICS WITH DISASTERS. BELIEVE HIM.”

I think fundamentally the problem with post liberal thinkers is that they seem to assume that vanquishing liberalism results in their enemies being converted or defeated and not becoming radicalized into enemies who no longer extend the mercies they once did.

But his assertion that diversity weakens unions ignores two things. First, labor unions have a long history of multiethnic coalitions. Second, it was the capitalists and political elites who tried to *exploit* ethnic divisions to maintain power. There is only one person here trying to stop unions:

New York Times headline reads: Trump Moves to Strip More Federal Workers of Union Protections.

OMG BRAZILIAN FLAG HIII

soldado brasileiro na italia lutando contra o eixo nazista no sul da Itália. ele está sorrindo com uma munição gigante em mãos. na munição está escrito “cobra está fumando” isso porque na época da segunda guerra a galera falava que era mais fácil a cobra fumar do que o exército brasileiro participar do conflito

I'm pro-union because I think workers should organize to balance the power that business owners have in various negotiations. It's true that unions have been weakened, but it's not because of multiculturalism. I would argue, it's because people seek to exploit divisions for their material interests.

Centrist Fallacies:

1: centrism is the only good smart wise position to take *specifically* because it is the center, and not because of any particular position or policy.

2: the center never moves

3: all problems created by capitalism may be solved by the vigorous application of more capitalism.

the description of this alleged "conspiracy" is... flimsy? alarming? the work being done here is to float the argument that if six people at a protest are (allegedly) observed engaging in the same activity, this is now a "conspiracy"

4. It was part of the conspiracy that, as Agent A drove the Government
Vehicle and reached the vicinity of the BSSA on or about September 26, 2025, and turned west onto Harvard Street in Broadview, a group of individuals, including RABBITT, ABUGHAZALEH, MARTIN, SHARP, STRAW and WALSH, surrounded the Government Vehicle, with the intent to hinder and impede Agent A from proceeding to the BSSA and discharging the duties of his office.

5. It was further part of the conspiracy that, while surrounding the
Government Vehicle, RABBITT, ABUGHAZALEH, MARTIN, SHARP, STRAW, WALSH, and others, among other things, banged aggressively on the Government Vehicle’s side and back windows, hood, and other vehicle body parts; crowded together in the front and side of the Government Vehicle and pushed against the vehicle to hinder and impede its movement; scratched the body of the Government
Vehicle, including etching a message into the body of the vehicle, specifically the word “PIG;” broke one of the Government Vehicle’s side mirrors; and broke a rear windshield wiper off the Government Vehicle.

You can't see their faces or badge numbers. You can't identify their vehicles. Yet they can seize people for simply standing up to them, and tear-gas neighborhoods just for fun.

They don't "enforce" the law, they make a mockery of it. www.npr.org/2025/10/29/g...

Unfortunately Democrats are also out of touch. They gaslit Americans about the economic issues we were all struggling with, telling us that the job numbers are great the economy is fine don’t worry about inflation & if you’re struggling that’s a *you* problem.

Just like Hillary in 2016

Same result

The Republicans went apeshit on the anti-queer/trans propaganda.

The Democrats completely fucking abandoned fighting back on that issue.

This allowed Republicans to define the Democrats’ position for them, steering public perceptions.
