Van Hollen almost certainly saved this man’s life
Today, I spoke with Kilmar Abrego Garcia and his wife, Jennifer. In April, when I met with him in El Salvador, Trump said he would never set foot in the U.S. again.

This case has never been about one man alone; if the govt can violate the constitutional rights of one, all our rights are threatened.

like his complaint is literally that there are people who believe in things, believe those things are right, and believe in those things regardless of whether they are popular.

i am fascinated by how nate silver turns everything he doesn’t like into a bespoke ideology. it’s not that he is annoyed by HCR, it is that she is a dreaded “ism” responsible for everything he doesn’t like about the democratic party. same with bluesky.

This is the entire incentive structure of modern day media in one post. Like Henry Ford said you could get his cars in any color you wanted as long as it was black, you can have any ideology you want as a commentator as long as you’re anti-Dem.
A left winger can get published in most mainstream media outlets as long as they come to the exact same anti-lib conclusions as most of the management and columnists

Noam Chomsky made it very clear that he was a scumbag when he denied the Khmer Rouge genocide back in the 1970s: if you’ve been trying to deny the obvious about him ever since, well, that’s on you.
Well, there's a photo I never expected to see in my life. Noam Chomsky palling around with Steve Bannon.

Trump Pretends To Block State AI Laws; Media Pretends That’s Legal
The mainstream media just failed a basic civics test so badly that you'd think their brains have been pickled by the kinds of folks who spend all their time on X (oh, wait…). Headlines across major outlets are breathlessly reporting that Donald Trump "blocked states from passing AI laws" with an executive order. Except, that's not how any of this works, and anyone who stayed awake during middle school social studies should know better.

Evil cannot recognize good, and they apparently can’t recognize bad PR either.
NEW: The Trump-Vance White House has falsely accused an ally of Pope Leo — Sr. Norma Pimentel — of illegal activity tied to migrant aid, and cut off all federal funding to Catholic Charities in Texas.

Church leaders say it’s a targeted, political reprisal against Pope Leo and the Catholic Church.

Catholic Charities of the Rio Grande Valley — praised by Pope Leo as an “agent of hope” — now faces a six-year federal funding ban. Church leaders say it’s a vendetta by the Trump-Vance White House.

Urbanists will talk about how cars are a machine that makes you selfish and crazy, and I know it’s easy to roll your eyes at that but if you give drivers the ability to comment they will say “yes I am selfish and crazy”

special screening of your name in beverly hills in 2016, remembering the (small, jam packed) theater just screaming at that pivotal point where tasogare ends and taki and mitsuha are separated
Raising the always fun question: What are your most memorable theater-going experiences?

Mine also include The Matrix, Blair Witch, and being way too stoned in Belgium when Fellowship of the Ring was sold out so we sat in the back row for Mulholland Drive instead.
It was hands-down one of the most memorable theater-going experiences I can remember, a collective 30-minute butt-clench/armrest-grab for the final climb. And we knew he lived! Wild.

One thing that I think I want to emphasize in the conversation about what society should do about drivers being extremely lawless and dangerous to pedestrians and cyclists is that if you spend a lot of time as a cyclist or a pedestrian you see a lot of behavior that is *driven by individual choice*.
