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.

anyway just to reiterate, Bovino is a GS-15, which means there are probably a dozen SESs and politicals above him who need to answer for their failure to supervise him

From a Minnesotan: a hearty HELL NO to this. This man is a professional political consultant in DC raising $$ for a political party. There are endless better places to donate to actually help people here suffering and fighting against this nazi invasion. Here’s a start:

every single successful general strike in US history has had union backing through the local AFL-CIO

This feels like a solid example of how the right leader is defined by an alignment of styles/characteristics and the moment. Tim is really great for some things, but times like these... not so much.
just a comprehensive failure to meet the moment

Y’all listen. After five days of the worst sickness I’ve had in recent memory, I am finally able to think/breathe/focus normally. This flu is no bullshit. Protect yourself and your loved ones this season. The greatest gift you can give is distance from this bug. Happy, healthy holidays, babies.

Multiple sources have confirmed that ICE/Border Patrol is headed back to the Raleigh and Durham areas for undefined deportation actions. We've heard 50 ICE agents, charter flights and hotels booked for all of them in the Raleigh area.
Let us know what you hear.

A truly delightful Thanksgiving memory.
…anyway, wherever you’re spending Thanksgiving, I will always believe it’s the best day of the year. It can connect you to your roots while also setting you free from them. It can consist of a perfect spread or a pile of empty vodka bottles and pistachio shells and the world’s latest turkey

Call me old fashioned, but I remember when armed agents of the state barking, "where are your papers!?" was a thing that Americans associated with other, less free, less enlightened countries.

My daughter is 15, a child with a baby face whom I won’t even put in an Uber by herself. Just utterly disgusting from the same people who have spent years demonizing trans people as predators for daring even to exist. What are we even doing right now?

It is fucking insane to me that senate democrats bailed him out
Trump to air traffic controllers: "For those that did nothing but complain, and took time off, even though everyone knew they would be paid, IN FULL, shortly into the future, I am NOT HAPPY WITH YOU. You didn’t step up to help the U.S.A. against the FAKE DEMOCRAT ATTACK"

I took the time to read (for as long as I could) before getting really, really upset. The confidence in premises, as if they are universally held and correct is the part that gets me. "Institutions today are broken ergo..." as if "institutions" were ever not "broken".
