This is absolutely insane, all of these undercover agents going into churches to surveil constitutionally protected speech. But it really says a lot about how they did all of this and found so little that violated the law. The administration was publicly shamed globally because of this resistance.

I know I have like 0 followers, but let’s buy 50 more and then 50 more again. I love wearing these to my son’s baseball tournaments. If even one kid sees it, that is a win. If one adult notices, that is a win.

Elizabeth Cronise McLaughlin@ecmclaughlin.bsky.social · 4mo agoMikie Sherrill’s state police destroyed the mutual aid tent for families of the detained that had been in operation at Delaney Hall for more than a year, providing clothes, food, even stuffies for the kids. They just trashed it. I’m pretty speechless at the kind of person you have to be to do this
So you CAN get reparations you just have to be a reactionary white person who tries to overthrow the government because black votes shouldn’t count

Historian of abolition here, history tells us how we got here, to put it succinctly “John Brown was hanged for treason and Robert E. Lee was not.”

Rays execs calling their mixed-use stadium district "fully taxable," it appears, is misdirection: They'll be paying some property taxes, but they'll be paying them to themselves, to pay off bonds for their own stadium.
How many billions of dollars a Rays stadium development would cost taxpayers: an update
Everybody likes round numbers. If we have the choice between reading about a stadium that will cost taxpayers $600 million and one that will cost “hundreds of millions,” we know which one we'll prefer...

There’s an episode of The Office where Dwight claims he can raise and lower his blood pressure with his mind. When asked why he would want to raise it, he responds by saying so he can lower it. So yeah, Trump is totally going to do something like that related to oil prices
You know, you right, Marco. It’s a shame Iranians don’t have Measures to Take. Glad we do.

I went deep on "One Riot, One Ranger," by learning about the Texas Rangers' segregationist statue, probing the the city government and commissioner's office who made it possible, and speaking to the Rev. Floyd Moody, the civil rights activist who never made it to class. issa new [eyeblack]

Companies getting the $175 billion back after collecting $175 billion from the consumers
Jason Dogwood 💙 🏳️🌈 🌱@jasondogwood.bsky.social · 7mo agoPenn-Wharton economists estimate more than $175 billion in tariffs may need to be refunded. The companies that paid the tariffs would get a refund but, of course, not the consumers who also paid them. Same beat-down, different game. Let's just rejoice in how upset trump is about this. 😀
So after Trump pardoned Honduras's narco-president, the admin didn't just let him out--they canceled an immigration hold and sent a specialized team to **chauffeur him to the $1k/night Waldorf Astoria.** “It's "absolutely fucking nuts,” said one official www.propublica.org/article/trum...
