Please join the ACLU. They don't have the money to campaign like political parties or the backing of the UN. And the work they do is so important, but doesn't get enough coverage in the media.

Be the change you want to see in the world.

Hakeem Jeffries will never lead the Dems where they need to go in order to help the people.

He will choose restoration over reform because he has been groomed by the Establishment.

I wish people could finally accept this.

If we can only have art from people who "aren't in it for the money" that means we can only have art from privileged middle-class dilettantes. Making art being a viable career is responsible for nearly all worthwhile art, and if it's not a viable career any more we will get drastically less of it.

This is like if Tyson stopped selling consumer chicken. RAM is about to cost as much as a brand new pc. The cost of everything from tablets, to phones, to laptops will skyrocket. All because AI data centers are consuming all the available RAM they can get.

You can't separate this from the Atlantic article claiming their are too many students with disabilities. It's a moral panic meant to push out young people with disabilities from access to resources and to reify ableist bigotry. It's exactly what they did to trans people.

How bad are X and Google AI doing with facts?

X (powered by Grok!) notified me of a quote allegedly by WH press sec Karoline Leavitt: "You’re either a U.S. citizen or not. You can’t be a U.S. citizen and a citizen of another country."

1. Intentionally killing civilians is a war crime.

2. If they were actually combatants (they weren't), attacking persons recognized as hors de combat is also a war crime.

Seditious conspiracy is the most serious crime charged for Jan. 6, with Oathkeepers and Proud Boys leaders convicted.

Absurd accusations of sedition merely for saying troops should honor their oath and follow the law are not only meant to intimidate, they also aim to render the concept meaningless.
Scoop: FBI aims to escalate its inquiry into 6 Democrats who made video for troops by pressing domestic terrorism squad to launch a formal seditious conspiracy investigation. Washington Field Office leaders are pushing back b/c they don't see a crime. news.bloomberglaw.com/us-law-week/...

Christopher Rufo is just a white supremacist, and I think it’s silly that we’re still doing news stories where he’s called a conservative activist or some other harmless sounding term.

I'm in Minneapolis right now. This "hellhole" is full of lakes & parks & fun, all populated by lots of different folks. They've all - Somali, Hmong, Hispanic, etc. - contributed to the vibrancy (& cuisine) of this place. Unlike the mad king, most of us aren't despicable racists.

i'd go even further and say there is a reason even nixon kept this kind of stuff to himself. you would have to go back quite a bit to find a point at which is acceptable for a president to say anything like this *in public*, to say nothing of in the oval office.
I don’t want to be pollyannish about the past, but it was basically inconceivable twenty years ago that a president would say this publicly
Trump: "It’s a hellhole right now. And those Somalians should be out of here. They've destroyed our country. And all they do is complain, complain, complain. You have her. She’s always talking about the Constitution provides me with – go back to your own country and figure out your constitution."

What's even the point of a separate branch of power, like the DOJ, if they spend years working on thousands of prosecutions for the biggest crimes and one wave of a small, fat hand can make it all void.

Trump has already pardoned over 1,650 criminals.

What. is. the. point. of. this. power?

I'll be honest. I thought there was a limit on presidential pardons (5) & you could only do it during the last month of your presidency.

I had absolutely no idea that a president could pardon an infinite amount of criminals onto the streets every. day. of his presidency.

That's a bonkers power.
