A political philosopher on this platform posted a screenshot of a passage from A Theory of Justice by John Rawls. It think that's a good idea, and I'm going to start a pinned thread with quotes from the book.

Just pure cruelty. Healthcare bills are going to skyrocket, the GOP's base can't afford it, and expect more resignations.

ICE are thug scum.
ICE detain U.S. citizen for looking Somali—use illegal chokehold to tackle him to ground.

Man repeatedly begs agents to look at his digital passport ID—they refuse.

Until the Tea Party rallies, I gave the news side of Fox News the benefit of the doubt.

The opinion/talking head side of Fox astroturfed the Tea Party into existence, then the news side amplified it far beyond what it would have been otherwise.

The Take Care Clause was a byproduct of the lessons learned from the Glorious Revolution that the executive should not be able to dispense with the law promulgated by the legislature. It was not a constitutional provision to empower the executive branch— but to constrain it!

I've spent my whole adult life hoping that the South would grow out of this goofy, casual Lil Abner-character sort of local corruption. I'm still hoping, but doubt I'll live to see it.

I've loved Sigourney Weaver ever since one of my all-time favorite movies, ALIEN. Couldn't resist going all fanboy on her yesterday & asking for a photo. She told me she's now in the cast of The Mandalorian. Talk about bad timing: she's now in that galaxy far, far away, years after I checked out! 💔
