With news lately about the safety of the food supply I was reminded of lessons I had for my classes about the Federal bureaucracy and regulations intended to protect consumers. That brought to mind this piece www.mentalfloss.com/history/law/...

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.
The two ICE agents who murdered a civilian in Biddeford, Maine today. Let's make them famous.
What, and I cannot emphasize this enough, the actual fuck?! youtu.be/G6kCDi6KoV0?... On a bigger point though, the progressive/DSA left is dogged by accusations of antisemitism. Shit like this from a well known influencer on the left does not help.

The Platner mess shows why the moderate and progressive wings of the Democratic party have got to knock off the bullshit of fighting each other. Platner said all the right things for the progressives: tax the rich, cut off Israel, Medicare for All, etc. etc. Even I thought, "yeah, ok, he's imperfect

This sums it perfectly. This is NOT about sports. This is about finding a way to justify discrimination against trans people. It opens the door for more and worse. www.instagram.com/reels/DaOo3Y...

I am glad the three progressive Dems won their primaries. The party establishment needs a kick in the ass. Cook Political Report rates NY-07 D+25, NY-10 D+32, and NY 13 D+32. It also rates NH-1 D+2 and NH-2 D+2. Winning in November matters. Just because someone may win in one district doesn't mean

This is a harmless but instructive example of why sometimes it's just as well not to join in the chorus just because it's singing a tune that confirms your priors, i.e. the tarps are there to protect Trump's ego.
Rebecca Stone Gordon@meanlouise.bsky.social · 2mo agoOSHA requires tarps for a range of safety protections including falling debris & tools and weather protection. Also direct sun exposure can cause adhesives on masonry to discolor but it’s unclear if that’s also an issue. This is more concise than the expanded OSHA regs page.

ICE is not about immigration. ICE is about normalizing a paramilitary force on peaceful streets. Abolish ICE.
Sometimes I grow weary of the "Can you just imagine if Obama..." type comments that follow Trump's most recent outrage. This one however really struck me. Never mind "can you imagine if," I have to believe that their wasn't a poltician alive who would even THINK about something like this in 1976.
