Attention Minneapolis! Unfortunately Mr. Lang did not learn his lesson when he was hounded out of Minneapolis the last time he tried to have a hate rally or when he was arrested for felony vandalism, so we need to get together and send the message again. Hate is not welcome here.

This is just one of the ways that we're not *seeing* this war.

Right, simply entertaining this challenge as if it's remotely legitimate is already discrediting. If there's a single vote to end birthright citizenship, we need to take this Supreme Court apart with sledgehammers and start over.

Pam Bondi dropped the cases against 4 accused drug dealers for resource reasons in MN, even as the entire office focused on processing snatched grannies. Turns out she did the same on much larger scale last year. www.propublica.org/article/trum...

In 2021, Oklahoma oil regulators documented nearly 2,000 wells that were either operating above legal limits — or lacked limits entirely. Yet they never acted on their own findings. And they never made the report accessible to the full agency. With @readfrontier.bsky.social

Just so we are clear, this is different from the other Jan 6 rioter that Trump pardoned who was sexually abusing children.

But those lies are one reason I think he'll end up declaring victory from catastrophic defeat, and likely in a way that vastly helps Russia. Bc Russia is offering "solutions" to him that probably look easy, and Trump likes easy, especially if there is personal graft involved.

NEW: You may have heard about Trump's efforts to undermine trust in the elections with the SAVE America Act. But here I highlight how this is just one part of a broader effort to manipulate the midterms, and how that could have long-lasting effects on US democracy www.wired.com/story/this-i...

Immigrants weren’t just filling existing jobs; they were helping create them. That’s Econ 101: jobs are not a fixed pie. More people means more customers, more demand, more businesses expanding, and yes, more hiring.

“I’ve been a MAGA supporter since the beginning. I believed in him. He said he would end wars and bring peace. Now look at us.”

This looks grim. But it’s also an interesting test for all the grifters who use the meaningless phrase ‘Judeo-Christian values’ as a euphemism for hatred of Muslims.

Yikes, here's a HUGE story that it seems not enough folks are reporting on yet. Drone swarms of unknown origin this month apparently attacked an important Air Force base—"the first time a US airbase was temporarily put out of operation in wartime, something that never happened even in World War II."

TIL that flight attendants aren’t paid during boarding and that had simply not crossed my mind as a thing that was possible? what the actual fuck

Fundamental foundational reminder: It's human biases and human values all the way down. The particular technology in question can matter in how exactly said values express, but the core remains: Human biases, human values, human choices, and unquestioned human assumptions, leading to human death.

NEW: After ICE came to Minneapolis, ProPublica journalist @peterdicampo.bsky.social saw his community step up to patrol the streets, drive strangers to work and provide aid to families in hiding. These are his neighbors, in their city, in their own words.

Teaching my class yesterday, trying to explain make-or-buy logics for government, and using diplomacy as an example of where you can't really contract out, obviously need experienced officials whose goals are clearly aligned with government. And then I said. "Well, thats what we used to think."

New from me: Last month ICE agents arrested a Columbia student inside university housing after gaining access to the building by claiming to be police looking for a missing 5 year old. In other words, they used a "ruse." And in many cases, that's legal. www.wired.com/story/why-ic...
