If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

I've spent the last decade writing about autism and saying politicians should stop talking about vaccines. When my book came out, it felt like politics was moving there. But I feel like my life's work has been completely erased by RFK Jr., Trump and Bill Cassidy. I feel completely disoriented.

AOC to @pabloreports.bsky.social : A swastika is one of the clearest symbols of hatred in all of humanity… to remove that designation… indicates a possible collaboration with those very elements, which I think is genuinely frightening to any American.

In honor of Larry Summers, I asked the female members of my college class (1987) to say if they had any experiences with sexual harassment by teachers/professors, back when this was tolerated as, I dunno, the cost of attending college, and OH MY GOD.

It's hard to express what it meant to watch Maurice, Natalia, Celeste, and Rhea tell their stories—in their own voices—this morning.
The segment revealed a brutal reality: homelessness at this scale isn't about personal failure. It's the result of policy choices and systems built to exploit people.

/4 The point is that the NYT has chosen a very specific way to look at the world — one of fatuous moral and political equivalence — and can’t expect anyone to read its stories outside of that frame. It’s perfectly plausible to think the Times would say “rape is bad. But the lost camaraderie!”

I’m familiar, by the way, with the argument that we just aren’t appreciating the NYT’s subtlety here; that it’s actually a searing indictment of this group of elites, just in a “show me, don’t tell me” kind of way. That take relies on ignoring that it’s in the New York Times.

Black people learn to not yell at cops, to not throw food at them, to become docile or risk getting arrested while black. If you look like Sandra Bland….If you’re not aware of how much racism is in our police forces, then you have been intentionally hiding. www.businessinsider.com/black-women-...
50 Black women have been killed by the police since 2015. Most of the officers who shot them didn't face consequences.
Black women fatally shot by US police have long been overlooked, research suggests. Insider created a database of women killed in the past six years.

I’d sure like to read essays by some constitutional scholars about whether the U.S. is now post-constitutional. Tariffs, bribes, emoluments, etc., OKed without justification via the shadow docket. What’s the meaning of a constitution if it isn’t enforced?
