One of these guys is now going to be an SRO in a school. Imagine being a Latino kid finding out the guy who walks around your school with a gun got fired from his last job for joking about a mass shooting of people who look like you.

Outrageous. These bigoted fucks always land on their feet. Thought it’d be funny to joke in a group chat of police officers about shooting up a migrant shelter, got fired when the story went public after a whistleblower, then rehired by other jurisdictions.

I maintain that this is the wildest thing about being an elder millennial. We're entering middle age having been involved in the whole search engine arc of nonexistent to world-changingly valuable to unusably shitty.
Google at its peak was basically the best information retrieval system in human history and they and every competitor decided going from there to “you didn’t want answers you wanted half-assed auto-complete 80%-wrong hallucinations” in a few years was the right idea

If messaging out of Minnesota’s GOP to Congresspeople is any indication, our state is going to spend 2026 drowning in messages targeting Somali community, immigrants, and trans folks.
These aren’t “distractions” they’re active attempts to scapegoat anyone seen as “other.”
We must stand together.

Hey gang, guess what my next Liberal Currents essay is going to tackle?
Yes, the supposed genius and success of the "they/them" ad has been wildly overstated in one of the most degrading exercises in elite confirmation bias I've seen in a while. And it was worse than I thought. Stay tuned!

Just apropos of some ongoing discourse, I think the political class is describing way more salient to the “Kamala is for they them” ad then is actually warranted

An ICE agent was caught removing a sign marking an ICE kidnapping in DC last week! Do we think he did it out of anger, embarrassment, or most appropriately shame? If you think what you’re doing is right, why are you trying to hide the evidence? 👀

I'm proud to have published so much work in Liberal Currents over the past wild year, and prouder to be a contributing editor there, surrounded by so many brilliant people who are certainly not lacking for conviction.
I learn from them every day, and it's good to see so many others do too.

We are close to $30,000 raised in the first 12 hours. It's a good start.
We like to think the same can be said of our growth as a publication—that it's a good start.
But as we head toward 2026, 2027, and 2028, we need to do much more. Give now to push us onward: www.gofundme.com/f/the-libera...

When I started working in policy I was (naively) mad at how decision/law makers ignore expertise/evidence...but it's still wild to see how experts have spent 5 years shouting "THE AI BUBBLE WILL BURST" and are ignored for the sake of large short-term profit. The paper trail of warning is massive.

Typically weird Strib Frey post-election story ignoring clear evidence he lost the Somali vote badly. Precinct 6-3 (Cedar-Riv) went 79% for Frey in 2021 but **87%** for Fateh in 2025. (It wasn’t redistricted.) Frey has courted Somalis, but not story this time. www.startribune.com/minneapolis-...
