The 25th anniversary of Bush v Gore is today. The conspiracy mongering & corruption of the GOP has been brewing for a long time.
Roberts, Barrett and Kavanaugh were all on Bush's legal team, where they pushed unfounded legal theories. SC justices were already enmeshed in voter fraud myths.

A lot of people have said this already but I have gone from "Epstein probably just killed himself" to "Donald Trump personally performed Sub-Zero's Spine Ripper Fatality on Epstein right there in his cell."
Lutnick is the current Secretary of Commerce and Epstein sent this email three months before he died.
Epstein mocked Trump for “leaving his nose print on the glass” while watching young women, wrote that Trump knew about illicit activity tied to Mar-a-Lago, and visited “many times,” and noted Trump’s planned visit to his neighbor Howard Lutnick’s house.

HUGE HOUSING NEWS: The Assembly just passed our bill allowing more homes near public transportation, SB 79!
We need more housing & we need it near transit. It’ll reduce traffic congestion & carbon emissions & increase transit ridership & affordability.
Go housing! Go transit!

Remember, fascism is built upon excessively harsh penalties on technicalities. Corrie Ten Boom and her family were sent to a work camp and then a concentration camp because she had extra ration cards
Everything you see about supposed crimes of folks caught in ICEs net is propaganda. Full stop.

I think it’s a huge flaw that liberalism attracts the kind of people who think the reason it lost is that it didn’t “make the case” when the real reason seems to be that it didn’t “crush dissent” or even like put the guy who tried to do a coup against it in jail

it's right that Hochul is doing this, 100% support, etc etc. but it does fucking suck, dude. I've pretty much given up on being ever able meaningfully act politically on any of the issue areas where I think the right has a meaningful critique through normal two party politics. can't work with 'em.

The NYT was cited in the Supreme Court ruling used to strip trans people of healthcare. This is EXACTLY WHY the “just asking questions” crowd of centrist edgelord journalists are dangerous. They launder transphobia through faux neutral “debate” and act like it’s intellectual curiosity

If random men in masks claiming to be ICE agents try to grab me, and they’re *not* really ICE, I have the legal right to defend myself against them, yes? And if they are ICE, I don’t?
So how am I supposed to tell the difference? I’m supposed to give my masked kidnappers the benefit of the doubt??

I still can't get past the idea that people in America are now supposed to accept that this is a valid form of law enforcement and just assume it's fine when random dudes in groups with face-coverings, no ID, no warrant, & no uniform grab people off the street and force them into unmarked vehicles
Not an original point but worth saying again - there is not a single element in this picture that identifies any of these folks as law enforcement agents. No badges, no uniforms, no vests. Out of context it just looks like a bunch of random guys are kidnapping a mayoral candidate.
