I honestly don’t know what’s more concerning. That the president of the United States keeps falling asleep in public or that everyone around him is too scared to wake him up.

Update from the Mawasi camps in Gaza, where we’ve been helping with shelter, hygiene kits & fresh food. These aren’t just tents—families are building homes out of tarps and trying to create some normalcy. Their apartments & houses are destroyed, so this is all they have now.

They wouldn’t have, because they didn’t want them to say “hey we were just fishermen, go check our boat.”

But they could have. It’s evil.

Why are the richest people the biggest heartless dicks to the people in desperate circumstances?

The Supreme Court paved the way for a felon to return to the presidency — where, behind the shield of office, that felon has ordered a string of murders.
The boat was split in half. 9 men were dead. 2 more clung to a floating piece of wreckage and tried desperately to flip it over for 41 minutes straight. There was no possible way they were going anywhere.

Then they were killed in cold blood by the U.S. military.

If Newport can shut down an ICE "detention center" before it starts, what do we think Portland can do?
According to KGW8, a company called Acuity International has posted jobs seeking employees for an ICE detention center near Portland Airport. Acuity is a contractor and seems to be expecting such a contract from ICE. PDX and our Guard say it's news to them. Eyes and ears wide open, everybody.

The fact that a second strike like that in an armed conflict is definitely a war crime should not completely negate the fact that *there is no war* and ALL the strikes are cold-blooded murder. The whole chain of command are murderers.

What's changed is that the Court has become more transparent in its corruption. There's not even an argument here beyond the implicit one which is: how do you expect us to hold the House without those seats?
#BREAKING: Over dissents from the three democratic appointees, #SCOTUS puts Texas's new House maps back into effect for (and, presumably, through) the 2026 midterms.

The three Democratic appointees, in an opinion by Justice Kagan, dissent.

I'll post the ruling shortly.

listen

I don't have any illusions about the United States military, what it does, or how many times this has happened before

but the fact that they sat there for 41 minutes, watched two scared, human beings desperately struggling to stay alive, and then murdered them has fucked me up so deeply

My employer, Dartmouth College, today boasts it's 1st Ivy "to launch AI at an institutional scale." It is doing this by partnering--"more than a collaboration"--with Anthropic, a company that stole the books of many faculty, me included, which many of us are suing.

41 minutes is a long time to sit in your air conditioned office watching men struggle to survive as you decide to kill them.

It's school boards and utility districts and county councils that are at risk. And they get so much less attention than national fights.

Yes, it might have implications for Congressional control. But when we cast it that way, it becomes a partisan issue.

Sec 2 has been used to strike down LOCAL at-large election systems, and nonpartisan districts, hundreds of times.

Don't make it easier for people to make it about D v R.

They don’t have to explain why they allow one thing (Texas) and will strike down the other (California). A justification isn’t the point. They’re telling you they are in charge and can do whatever they want and you can’t stop them.
