A judge blamed “deliberate indifference” for the illness of Javier Tomas Muñoz Materano, who was taken into custody by ICE. In the months he was being held, he was not allowed to bathe or change clothes for days at a time as he was transferred 10 times to eight facilities across four states.

Donald Trump has ruined my life. But liberals want to make him stop ruining the lives of other people that I don't like. I have never felt more politically homeless.

Q: “You said you would have no problem with releasing the full video of that strike on September 2nd.”

Trump: “I didn’t say that. You said that. I didn’t say that. This is ABC fake news.”

Trump on Dec. 3: “Whatever they have, we’d certainly release. No problem.”

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”

What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”

Funny how that works.

This is awesome. Print is such a good way to get around a bunch of distribution (and surveillance!) mechanisms that seem otherwise mandatory in this very gross economy. It is really nice to see it spelled out like this.

It works great for us, and it'll work great for other places!
404 Media is making a print zine! About the surveillance technologies used by ICE. 16 pages, riso printed. Shipping early January. Features reworked versions of our best reporting and a few new things. We're very excited! And hope to do more if people like it:

"Fear the President..."

In case you were wondering what was happening here.
I am not live posting the whole argument here because I want to listen closely to Trump v. Slaughter. But the solicitor general for Trump just said the point here in killing the independence of agencies like the FTC is that executive branch officers must “fear and obey” the president. Wow. #SCOTUS

RFK Jr. probably put Dartmouth pediatrician Cody Meissner on ACIP because he had been critical of mask and shot mandates during the pandemic. But Meissner is alarmed by the broader anti-vax push.

Elon Musk is worse at hiding it but this is the problem with all billionaires: they are a threat to democratic governance. They have an insatiable need to own and control everything. If you want to be free you have to curb their power, and demand political leaders who understand that
Elon Musk is against the European Union being the European Union —he posted this after X (fka Twitter) was fined for violations of the EU’s Digital Services Act.
