Left-handed, left of center, & counting on being Left Behind. Left coast, natch.

Utterly disgusted by brazenly corrupt GOP + weak response of many Democrats. Fascism incoming. 🤬

No interest in sales, self-promotion, & accounts that never interact.

Changed my profile photo to one from the same time that isn’t aimed up my nostril lol. In this one, Ruby’s big ol’ tongue was heading for my face (of course).

Huh. It's almost like when institutions stand up to that spineless coward fascist, he loses and folds. I sure wish more institutions would take note of that.
BREAKING: Seattle Children's Hospital successfully fought this summer to get DOJ's invasive trans care subpoena quashed.

The Seattle court partially unsealed the case this week.

To give you a sense of how big a departure this year, the government doesn't do this for wanted criminals.
SCOOP: The Trump administration is providing the names of all travelers passing through U.S. airports to immigration officials in search of people with deportation orders, a substantial expansion of government efforts to draw on data to hunt down immigrants.

BREAKING: Judges Rao and Walker — both Trump appointees — issue an "administrative stay" blocking Judge Boasberg's contempt proceedings set to begin on Monday.

The administrative stay is issued over the objection of Judge Childs, a Biden appointee.

WOW. @haleaziz.bsky.social with a new scoop: ICE now gets a running list of every person who is going to be taking a domestic flight inside the United States from the TSA and runs it through their database looking for targets. This explains the Babson College student's arrest.

DOJ has sued Maine, Oregon, California, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Washington, Delaware, Maryland, New Mexico, Rhode Island, and Vermont for access to its most sensitive voter data.

My firm has moved to intervene in 10 of those cases. We are working on the last 4.

Mark, since you seem reluctant to do the research yourself, here are numerous studies that show we would pay less with any type of single payer than we do now - every single thing you claimed would be bad about public funded healthcare is what we're already dealing with PROFIT based healthcare.

I hadn’t heard this part before: the 2019 order of removal of KAG on which the feds are basing their actions turns out not to have existed until a Trump flunky judge wrote one & essentially back-dated it just recently??!?!!

Thank dog for Xinis, KAG’s defense team, & KAG’s resilience.
My full write-up:

In a dramatic series of overnight developments, the Trump administration took extraordinary steps to try to re-detain Kilmar Abrego Garcia within hours of his court-ordered release, but a federal judge stepped in and blocked the move.

The Lt. Gov. of Indiana has now deleted this post which confirmed that the Trump admin threatened to withhold federal funding from Indiana if they didn’t gerrymander.
