Fwiw, in my reporting of the 2024 election I found the belief that the mass deportation stuff was just for show *very prevalent* among Trump voters. Including among naturalised, non-white citizens.

An odd occasion where voters assumed the candidate was lying and so didn't let it change their vote

Good news: there's no durable majority for fascism

Bad news: we are locked in a life or death struggle against fascism and our victory depends on people with less understanding of how the world functions than my 14-month old
New poll: In 2024, low-engagement voters went for Trump over Harris by 11 percentage points. But now they disapprove of the way he's handling the presidency by 13. They have moved 25 points against Trump — 2x as large as the shift for high-knowledge voters www.gelliottmorris.com/p/trump-lost...
Trump has lost the voters who weren’t paying attention in 2024
The least-engaged Americans have swung 25 points against him since 2024 — about twice the shift among everyone else. Trump has flattened the engagement gap.

i think it is a massive fucking problem that the first best use for LLMs was to cheat in school
Ill be clear about why I am so angry and critical about it: Im seeing a good portion of my students who have imbibed the notion that they dont have to read, think or write for themselves because ChatGPT/CoPilot will do their thinking for them, and its terrifying. It should scare all of us.

Isn't this determination supposed to be made by the agency based on substantial evidence on the record, not by the president at a press conference?

many dumb and shitty people equate being a complete asshole with “keeping it real,” and they are rife in the commentariat and electorate
I think Trump gets a weird “honorary transparency” card from the media and electorate because everyone knows he’s a lying sack of shit so people think he’s honest about being dishonest.
The kicker is there's been plenty of cover ups along the way too, the prestige tier of American media has just been in the tank for the rapist in chief for a decade.

Recent reports have revealed the identity of the staffer behind the Nazi dogwhistles posted on the Dept. of Labor and Dept. of Homeland Security social media pages.

His name is Peyton Rollins.

(AXIOS) - President Trump has become so politically toxic that voters now say Joe Biden — whose unpopularity forced him into early retirement — did a better job as president, according to three new polls.

This is the second account - the first being in Chicago - of DHS agents mass detaining people and then *sorting them by race*.
More than 400 people, including hundreds of citizens, were “sorted” at gun point into racial and ethnic groups by 200 ICE agents who fired flash-bang grenades into cars with people inside, pointed guns at children & demanded their zip tied parents not comfort them. apple.news/Ausdx6kWtT0e...

They cannot be allowed to live among decent folk when this is over.

They must pay to the last penny.

I have been made aware of reports of an ICE agent firing a gun into a car in Roxbury this week.

Whenever ICE is around, you can expect violence. It's time to ABOLISH ICE.

Until then, NJ must use its full might to pass laws protecting us from ICE.

His Chain of Command should recognize this as suicidal ideation and conduct an immediate welfare visit and ensure he has no access to weapons or capacity to harm friends, family, pets, or neighbors.

They don't actually care about him, though, so

A Reuters photographer captured this image of a page from Pam Bondi's "burn book," which she used to counter any questions from Democratic lawmakers during an unhinged hearing today.

It looks like the DOJ monitored members of Congress’s searches of the unredacted Epstein files.

Just wow.

Lock Burgum in a room with ten cubic feet of dry ice and activate the sprinkler system - then ask him an hour later if he thinks CO2 is a pollutant.
Burgum: "CO2 was never a pollutant. When we breathe, we emit CO2. Plants need CO2 to survive and grow. They thrive with more CO2. So the whole endangerment thing opens up an opportunity for the revival of clean, beautiful, American coal."
