this is a general warrant and it's specifically the kind of warrant the framers passed the 4th amendment to outlaw
WOW. @haleaziz.bsky.social with a new scoop: ICE now gets a running list of every person who is going to be taking a domestic flight inside the United States from the TSA and runs it through their database looking for targets. This explains the Babson College student's arrest.

John Roberts, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett were all participants in Bush v. Gore.

They would go on to become key players in the dismantling of the United States.

How about Boyhood? On one of the rare days over the 12 years they filmed they had a scene with Ethan Hawke and the boy at an Astros game. Richard Linklater just happened to be pointing his camera down the 3rd base line just when Jason Lane homered down that line.

Not an original thought but it really is something that the United States federal government can raid your home with helicopters, molest your children in the middle of the night, destroy your home and render you homeless…and YOU’RE on the hook thetriibe.com/2025/12/judg...

Richard Linklater marks the first filmmaker in 50 years - following Herbert Ross in 1975 (for FUNNY LADY and THE SUNSHINE BOYS) - to direct two films to Best Picture (Musical or Comedy) Golden Globe noms in the same year.

I can't stop thinking about the purported drug smugglers being murdered by the US military. The punishment for drug offenses isn't the death penalty. This is just bloodlust and men in suits playing with lives they don't care about. It's truly grotesque and gravely compromises this country.

It might be easy to find things like this merely petty or superficial, but that would be a mistake. Demeaning, erasing or eliminating celebrations or acknowledgments of Black America is straight from Redemption playbook, and is intended to reinforce the racial hierarchy and signal its reinstatement.

I loved this interview with Richard Linklater & Ethan Hawke. They talk about new collab Blue Moon, but also meditate on time, aging, the fundamental human impulse towards creativity and the challenge of reclaiming our attention which is nothing less than saving our own life

Check it out - this MFer never got as far as the exploding star systems chapter of Finnegan's Wake
That suggests a blurb:

Fermi's Wake – a lot easier to read than Finnegan's Wake.

It’s in fact extremely easy to give away money in a way that helps people.

Stuff like this is just what you say when you don’t actually want to help others.

The news has entirely failed to grasp the unprecedented scope of the ICE and DHS budgets. Nothing like it in modern history. A galaxy of public/private surveillance and caging institutions for $100,000,000,000s unleashed on a public that will be forever changed. www.brennancenter.org/our-work/res...

Unfortunately, in US journalism it is considered neutral to spread a lie, but it is considered "biased" to call out a lie. So, there is a structural asymmetry that rewards colorful lies with virality.

"Never spread the lie in the headline" should be a hard rule of 21st century journalism.

Research shows that repeating lies helps to spread them, and people read headlines more than they read stories.
News media has to do better with headlines that present false and unverified public health claims.

This is a bad headline. How many people will scroll past & use it to confirm their bias? It’s not just unethical, it’s contributing to disinformation & I question the intent.

Columbia and Northwestern are the academic homes to the most prestigious journalism schools in the country and they are the two universities that caved to the Trump administration’s extortion demands that are directly connected to the First Amendment. Just gonna sit with that for a while.
