Serious question: if ghouls like Miller get fired, who has the power to hold them accountable for the things they did in office?

Legitimately a feat of carefully calculated writing to issue a Holocaust Remembrance Day statement of this length without mentioning either (1) the people who perpetrated the Holocaust or (2) the people against whom they perpetrated it

This mid-afternoon Alex Pretti vigil at the Portland VA was not heavily promoted. But the crowd probably stretches a quarter mile or more. Americans are galvanized and grieving.

The PBS documentary on NYC is so incredibly worth your time but when I got to this part covering Emma Lazarus I wept, like *sobbed*, and watching it again just now tears were rolling down my face

What the hell?
Is this really the Minnesota State Police testing LRAD on protestors?
LRAD is a long-range acoustic device. Sound as a weapon.
Testing weapons on civilians is a war crime.
If this is legit, it means weapons of war against US citizens.

Yeah. The Bluesky app has a zero tolerance policy towards wishing death on people.

Of all the departures this past year at NOAA—via the fork offer, retirements, etc.— the one that stung the most was the firing of people in their probationary first year. They have more modern skills than those of us who received their PhDs in the 90s and 00s. My whole department is in its 50s now.
How many STEM Ph.D.s were lost from the U.S. federal government last year?
My colleagues @mghersher.bsky.social and @policyhound.bsky.social dug into a recent data release to find the answer. A @science.org exclusive.

One of the points of Altemeyer's research on authoritarian personality types is that they tend to exhibit much higher degrees of social conformance sensitivity. They really care about what's normal and they really care about both feeling and being perceived as normal.
Their biggest weakness is their massive self-soothing mechanism. They're convinced that everyone agrees with them but some people have been peeled away by propaganda and money
They just can't imagine earnest disagreement and coming across it not only confuses but spiritually harms them

The regime obviously thought they'd be able to take out a few dozen scary-queer-weirdo Antifa types in black masks and then successfully cow the rest of the Coastal Elite Liberal class into terrified silence: they were not expecting "totally fearless mass nonviolent resistance by entire cities."

A lot of Dems are going to take Bovino and Noem being fired as the finish line, and it's very important to make it clear to them that it is a starting line

I'm gonna add to this that the Dems had ZERO to do with the Bovino firing. It was the tireless work of the good people of MSP standing strong, filming and writing the news with their first hand accounts. The press tried to both sides it. They WANTED to. But the citizens of Minnesota ended this guy
The more I think about it, the more I’m convinced the Democrats have to push their hand immediately. The parallels with the delays and subsequent failures after January 6th are blaring warning signs about what will happen if they don’t go after the issues with ICE and CBP at the root RIGHT NOW.

Political Scientists would call it a "tactical concession" (RRS' Spiral Model). Human rights and democracy campaigners need to make sure it leads to more gains (positive spiral) instead of stalling progress (negative spiral).
The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”
That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.
