Harvard Law School’s Jack Goldsmith:

“In short, if the Post’s facts are correct, it appears that Special Operations Forces committed murder when the ‘two men were blown apart in the water, as the Post put it.’”

@audacityofdespair.bsky.social I think I was also addicted to Richard Price novels when I read your work. If you don’t like him don’t tell me 😝

On Transgender Day of Remembrance, California mourns and honors all the trans and gender non-conforming people taken from us by violence and discrimination.

In California, hate is never tolerated. We will always defend the freedom, equality, and dignity of all people.

Duncan is such an inspiration. And a badass.
a big runoff last night, in New Orleans:

Calvin Duncan was exonerated after spending *28 years* in prison; he tried to get his own case records from the New Orleans city clerk—but the office dragged its feet.

So Duncan ran to become city clerk himself, and yesterday ousted the incumbent.

Just incredibly, unnecessarily cruel. And I’d be shocked if there wasn’t wanton corruption going on here, too.
It literally took decades of advocacy to pass these reforms, which would have prevented prison phone and teleconferencing companies from ripping off inmates and their families to the tune of hundreds of millions annually

Congress set aside contingency funds specifically for SNAP food benefits during government shutdowns.

Sorry, but it *is* unnerving. I agree with @rieckhoff.bsky.social that this idea that the military is Trump's personal muscle, and should kill anyone he points at, should be among the biggest stories in America right now.
Hey Tom, saw you on MSNBC earlier today.
That conversation was a bit unnerving.

This is a U.S. citizen being brutally abducted by ICE while his mom pleads for them to stop and the videographer cries for help. The Chicago police do nothing to stop it.

They will come for everyone, and they’re not even hiding that anymore. If you are not organizing and resisting yet, get started.

"Trump promoted a military pay raise of 3.8% for next year, claiming that this was 'something you weren’t getting from the past administration.'"

"Military pay increased by 4.6%, 5.2% and 4.5% in 2023, 2024 and 2025... Military raises are automatically determined by a formula set by law."

This is a profoundly absurd show of force that could put Californians directly in harm's way.

Flying live rounds over a busy highway without coordination between state, federal, and local partners isn't just wrong — it's dangerous.
