OverUnderClover. America i cant w/you right now. @overunderclover.bsky.social · Apr 30
Prescient. From Rare Color Footage of the Defeat of the Wehrmacht, World at War.
Only a few weeks after Aachen fell, the U.S. Secret Service stated that many of its citizens were maudlin, had eyes for nothing but their own suffering, and were unwilling to reflect on their own role during the Third Reich. And NO ONE admitted to having been a Nazi. No one questioned whether they might bear any personal responsibility for all that had happened. Writing in her diary on Oct 3, 1944, in a southern suburb of Aachen, Clara Trafford made a farsighted comment. "I have had enough forever and a day. But in 20 years’ time, there will again be enough idiots around who will ignore what has happened and be willing to start the same misery all over again.

It was not an "error." I don't know why the Times caves to administration's framing that it was an oopsy daisy, or why it has to give an official anonymity to press this claim.

www.nytimes.com/2025/10/11/h...
Among the workers whose firings were revoked were members of the elite corps of “disease detectives” who are typically deployed to the sites of outbreaks. The team that puts together the M.M.W.R., which communicates the agency’s recommendations and research, has also been brought back. The employees “were sent incorrect notifications, which was fixed last night and this morning with a technical correction,” a senior administration official said. “Any correction has already been remedied.”

Writing something about ICE and sweet Jesus it is so incredibly dark what they are doing to these cities. We have all seen the videos, but when you wade into the details of their actions, it is extraordinarily bleak.

So Kilmer Abrego-Garcia will not challenge a deportation to Costa Rica, who has agreed to for him residency, but DHS won’t agree to send him there because it’s not cruel enough.

www.nytimes.com/2025/10/10/u...
For weeks, Mr. Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran national who is married to a U.S. citizen, has made clear that he would not challenge his deportation if he were sent to Costa Rica, which has promised him legal residency and guaranteed that he would not be sent back to El Salvador. But the Trump administration has refused to deport him to Costa Rica, and in an earlier hearing this week, Judge Xinis pressed the administration to consider the option or clarify why it was unacceptable.

if we are going to have a supreme court that is as powerful as it is, i basically think justices should be forbidden from public comment on their work as well as any supplemental source of income while they are on the bench. (they should also ride circuit again but that's a bit separate.)

The substance of what she's saying is bad and unconvincing, but more fundamentally, I really don't think Supreme Court justices should be going on book tours where they publicly comment on their work and respond to criticism of it. Either put it in a written opinion or hold your peace.

Nobody wants it as a story but I have multiple NYPD sources who voted for Mamdani, are eager for his win in November, and who say their colleagues quietly feel the same.

They like that he wants NYPD to focus on crime, not quality of life enforcement.

There are a tremendous number of ICE watchers out in Rogers Park this afternoon after some early morning abductions.

People are guarding churches and patrolling alleyways. Ran into Alderperson Hadden. First timers tell us they're primed and ready to use their whistles.

"Too Young to Die"
As the seemingly endless NYC mayoral campaign enters its final weeks, the howls of the Democratic establishment in the city are only getting louder. They've really convinced themselves that the elect...

The funniest thing about defending Bari Weiss being hired to lead CBS and beating back any criticism of that as “cancel culture” is that we are about to enter an era of collusion between the government and media targeting any critique of the state not seen since McCarthyism

Hi Sally. When Weiss published a supposed expose on the death of George Floyd, a veteran criminal justice reporter showed in deep detail that the piece was not just wrong but filled with falsehoods and misrepresentations. Weiss did not retract the piece. What do you think of that?

Clarkson on Farage:

“Nigel Farage rarely talks about the economy and when he does, his numbers don’t add up. He says he wants to cut taxes and increase spending by £150bn. Huh? But before anyone can question his logic, he scuttles back to his safe space and starts raging about small boats.”

There’s a protest at Home Depot shortly. We’ll be delivering water and supplies to protesters — I hope you’ll join us in standing with our community.
