Lorenzo Salgado Araujo and Joan Sebastian Guerrero weren't murdered because of car pursuits. They were murdered because the men driving those cars felt comfortable recklessly killing. None of this ends until we shut down ICE completely.

Every single lawmaker that’s calling for their constituents to “be responsible with electricity usage” during the extreme heat had better be supporting heavy restrictions on data centers.
holy shit birthright citizenship is out, and the Court did do wtf it was supposed to do, but it was outrageously, unconscionably close 5-4? 5-4 to uphold BIRTHRIGHT CITIZENSHIP? this is galling honestly www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

Imagine if a woman president crashed the economy and started a war with no end in sight, and her biggest, seemingly ONLY concern was building a ballroom and redecorating the White House.
The Coke Zero people are so needlessly smug. I don’t drink Diet Coke because I want Coca Cola with zero calories. I drink Diet Coke because there is something wrong with me; something deeply broken inside of me; something that will never truly be healed.

Headquarters@headquartersnews.bsky.social · 4mo agoTrump: The Strait will open up automatically. We'll open the Strait anyway. We don't use the Strait. It won't be easy. We will have that open fairly soon. You don't need a back up plan
The fact that nobody seriously believes there is an institution in this country that will check the president—that we’re all just sitting here hoping that he gets distracted and fails to follow through on his genocidal threats—is the most damning indictment of our political system I’ve seen yet.
things every single republican president of your lifetime has done - started a war in the middle east - completely destroyed the economy

it's not just appropriating someone's artwork (important as that is!); it's also reframing these incredibly sheltered comemierdas, who shift all the risk and consequences from their decisions onto others while hoarding the profits, into this position of casual, almost heroic precarity.
Thor Benson@thorbenson.bsky.social · 8mo agoI guess it's fitting that it's a reimagined, worse version of someone else's artwork
ah, perhaps instead of pumping millions into endless factional infighting Dem donors could invest in making local Dem organizations genuine civic spaces that can reach people during and between elections

Emerging from the darkness of this era will require us to acknowledge that the previous status quo, including many institutions that may have served us well in another era, have been failing for my entire lifetime.
Reporters, I beg you, please stop using headlines with the form “Trump does X” when X is something the president clearly lacks any legal authority to do.

the Senate's small-state ultra-bias is never more maddening than when one senator uses it to get benefits for her 740,000 constituents while openly acknowledging the bill she's supporting will harm the nation's 339 million other residents.
For the life of me I don’t understand going to the effort - time, money, everything - of running for Congress, winning, and then just rolling over. It makes no sense.

This is a PROFOUNDLY disturbing dismantling of ACIP that almost certainly lays the groundwork for a broader attack on vaccine availability throughout the United States. He's going to replace these experts with anti-vax quacks who fight to take vaccines off the market and outside insurance coverage.
Kathleen Bachynski@bachynski.bsky.social · last yr.“Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Monday said he is retiring all 17 members of a crucial government panel of vaccine advisors. “A clean sweep is needed to re-establish public confidence in vaccine science,” Kennedy said” This is a nightmare. @jackiantonovich.bsky.social
If you burn down a forest, you don't miss out on lumber for just that season. You have to replant all the trees, nurture them, and wait for them to grow. The science and research budget cuts happening now are wanton, senseless arson. Recovery, if it ever happens, will take generations.
