This is a systematic effort to violate constitutional rights as policy while keeping it secret from the public, the courts, and Congress.

Yet more evidence that "reform" is not an option. The bare minimum is to abolish ICE and permanently bar all employees from future federal employment.

This is torture.

We tortured people in the "War on Terror" and it was indefensible and brought us shame. Yet at least ostensibly it was for information.

This is cruelty for the sake of cruelty. Pure evil.

I have the utmost respect for Senator Kaine and Senator Warner but we do not need “coaching” on redistricting coming from a cuck chair in the corner. How about you all stay focused on the fascist in the White House and let us handle redistricting in Virginia. 10-1

a suicide note whose existence and content federal authorities appear to have concealed for years while conspiracy theories about Epstein’s death in their custody raged out of control
DOJ briefly uploaded this letter from Jeff Epstein to serial child molester Larry Nassar:

"Our president shares our love of young, nubile girls. When a young beauty walked by he loved to 'grab snatch,' whereas we ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system."

Just when a bipartisan bill banning congressional stock trading was picking up speed, Hakeem Jeffries pulled the rug out from under it, introducing his own partisan bill that all but guarantees both bills will fail to obtain a majority. From @ddayen.bsky.social:

Jeffries Undercuts Congressional Stock Trading Ban - The American Prospect
A bipartisan solution was gaining momentum, but the House Democratic leader just issued his own bill that will prevent consensus.

It’s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

Since @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social is so concerned about @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social housing maybe he should address his own property tax bill of just $213 a year thanks to a sweetheart deal he supported when he served in the state Assembly that will last through 2032. nypost.com/2022/01/23/r...
Exclusive | Rep. Hakeem Jeffries pays just $200 in property taxes thanks to sweetheart subsidy law
Public records show that Jeffries and his family reside in a condo unit in Prospect Heights, paying just $213 a year in property taxes.

Imagine being part of a floundering political establishment at historic lows in favorability, seeing this guy's absolutely infectuous energy, and deciding to try to stop it through an array of embarrassing media appearances and editorial blunders.

Mad TV 1997. The “Take Back America” Tour. It seemed like such a broad and unfair parody of American conservatism. Now it feels like premonition. youtu.be/oqZaQKskP-A?...

interesting to look at this in context of the lonely young man/masculinity discussion. fewer and fewer men are attending college (and graduate schools). in a few years, undergraduates could be 60% female/40% male. once higher ed is dominated by women, it is derided as useless.
