I am moving forward with impeachment articles against the DHS Secretary Noem.

Secretary Noem’s unlawfulness and dangerous leadership can't be ignored.

We owe it to our democracy to persist, despite the seemingly overwhelming odds against us.

A comic from 2022 on the dangers of unaccountability and kicking the can down the road. As recent elections demonstrate, voting is still extremely important.
Playing the Short Game BUSH ADMINISTRATION NOT HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR LIES LEADING TO IRAQ WAR WE DON'T WANT TO ALIENATE MIDTERM VOTERS. TRUMP AND ASSOCIATES INCITE DEADLY COUP ATTEMPT GARLAND: THE PRUDENT COURSE OF ACTION IS TO BE INSTITUTIONALLY PRUDENT. MCCONNELL BLOCKS VOTE ON OBAMA'S SUPREME COURT NOMINEE, PACKS BENCH WITH RIGHT-WING EXTREMISTS DOING SOMETHING TO FIX THAT WOULD RUFFLE TOO MANY FEATHERS. NONPARTISAN STATE ELECTION OFFICIALS THREATENED, REPLACED BY "BIG LIE"-SPOUTING TRUMPISTS EH, DON'T WANT TO CAUSE A STIR. MEMBERS OF CONGRESS SUPPORT INSURRECTION, REFUSE TO CONFIRM BIDEN'S ELECTION CONSEQUENCES? THAT WOULD MAKE TOO MANY PEOPLE ANGRY. ELECTIONS SABOTAGED, NATION BECOMES ONE-PARTY AUTOCRACY I'M SURE WE'LL VOTE OUR WAY OUT OF THIS SOMEHOW!

NEW: An ICE officer killed a person in broad daylight in Minneapolis today — with posted video appearing to contradict the DHS statement claiming self-defense, as the driver appeared to be attempting to drive away when shot.

they’re abducting our neighbors and putting them in concentration camps and they’ll shoot you in the fucking face if you don’t cheer them on while they’re doing it.

I need people to wrap their minds around the fact that here in Minneapolis, ICE broke the window of a vehicle yesterday, pepper sprayed the occupants, and arrested them, and shot another observer in the face today, and OBSERVERS ARE STILL GOING OUT TO PROTECT THEIR NEIGHBORS AT MASSIVE PERSONAL RISK

Best thing I’ve read this morning, from a human rights lawyer in Mexico. Translation is in the ALT-text.
Twitter thread in Spanish by José Mario de la Garza, a human rights lawyer in Mexico, translated using Google Translate: 1. Overthrowing a dictator sounds morally right. No one mourns a tyrant. But international law wasn't built to protect the good, but to restrain the powerful. That's why it prohibits force almost without exception: not because it ignores injustice, but because it knows that if each country decides whom to "liberate" by force, the world reverts to the law of the strongest. 2. The problem is not Maduro. The problem is the precedent. When military force is used to change governments without clear rules, sovereignty ceases to be a limit and becomes an obstacle. Today it is “overthrowing a dictator”; tomorrow it will be “correcting an election,” “protecting interests,” “restoring order.” The law does not absolve dictatorships, but neither does it legitimize unilateral crusades. Cont’d: 3. The uncomfortable question is not whether a tyrant deserves to fall, but who decides when and how. Because history teaches something brutal: removing a dictator is easy; building justice afterward is not. And when legality is broken in the name of good, what almost always follows is not freedom, but chaos, violence, and new victims. The law exists to remind us of this, even when it makes us uncomfortable. Maduro isn't the problem: he's the face of the problem. Removing him from power would be merely opening the door. Behind him is the machine: Rodríguez, Cabello, the military command, the operators of repression and plunder. If you only change the person at the top and leave the system intact, what follows isn't democracy: it's a reshuffling. And there's something even more difficult: Chavismo didn't just capture institutions, it captured daily life. Economy, media, bureaucracy, employment, fear, favors, blackmail. A country can't be "de-Chavistaized" by decree or by an electoral miracle. The real transition begins when that network is broken without setting the country ablaze. The challenge is enormous, and it's also a moral one: to unite without vengeance, but without impunity. Targeted justice for those most responsible, truth for the victims, guarantees that the rest will dismantle the system, and a plan for people to live again—not just survive. Because freedom doesn't come with a new president: it comes when the state ceases to be a threat.

it's just so emblematic of what passes for conservative thought, this belief that their children go to college not to leave ignorance behind by learning from experts, but rather to teach the experts from their locus of ignorance, and to have their nonsensical prior assumptions validated as true

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality.

And trans lives are grounded in reality.

Just in case any journalist or editor reading this is tempted to minimize Trump's Reiner post because it's a "showbiz thing" and "real" stories are happening: No. It's a President thing and a decency thing, and if you don't understand that those things are newsworthy, you are failing in your duties.

We're that much closer to reaching our goal of beating The Washington Post's print circulation by the end of next year. (They were last reported at 97k, but it's probably lower now.)

Thank you all. Democracy died in darkness but we're still here.
