Democrat meeting the moment: Now, more than ever, we need to show ICE agents more PowerPoints before they go out to hunt people. Please give me five dollars. Every little bit helps.

We spent the last 80+ years empowering the executive to act unilaterally to enforce the rule of international law and to prevent another Hitler from arising. Now we have an executive who thinks like Hitler and rejects any concept of the rule of law . . . and he’s using that power.

I sent the following message to @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social as a celebration of his victory and as a tribute to my father, who passed away eight years ago this week, and who would have supported his campaign.

My condo in Ypsilanti, Michigan is available for sale to any billionaires fleeing NYC. I’ve done a lot of work on it, and it’s pretty nice. But I empathize with political refugees, so I will let it go for $5 million ($4.9M if we close by the end of the month!).

Anyway, I'm glad our liberal intelligentsia is sacrificing science, morals, and objective facts to appease an orange-faced goon with congestive heart failure and his small cadre of rich Nazis because they think it'll put Black, brown, queer, and poor people in our place.

I saw this in downtown Ypsilanti this morning, it expresses my sentiments about the “national defense” AI data center/death machine that @umich.edu and Los Alamos National Laboratories plan to build on the Huron River, near my house.

The one time we got the smoking gun of undeniable ideology that mapped neatly onto american partisanship in political violence was J6, and we decided it was too scary to treat it as such, so now we return to deciphering memes of school shooters like medieval peasants panicking at an eclipse.

Newsom is designed to appeal to middle to upper class, low information, white Democratic voters by exploiting their short attention spans, their desire to ignore politics, their willingness to believe the best about Democrats in spite of evidence, and their desire for someone to "fight" Trump.

I just found some Brown Alumni Magazines to throw away in disgust when I noticed the teaser in the upper left hand corner of an issue cover from this spring. Since publishing this article, Brown apparently has decided that, as a matter of university policy, “gender reckoning” is as simple as “M/F.”

Brown University reaches agreement with Trump administration to restore federal research funding - The Boston Globe
The deal settles three open investigations into the university, and does not require the Ivy League institution to admit any wrongdoing or make a payment to the federal government.

Fascists rule by fear and force, without regard to law. The Minnesota assassinations and the ICE kidnappings both illustrate the emergence of fascist power. When it’s impossible to tell whether the men with guns are random thugs or government agents, fear & force replace law as instruments of power.

1. In college, my part-time job involved, among other things, emptying dorm-room wastebaskets, including JFK, Jr.'s.
2. I got to speak to Bob Weir on the phone once, and he scolded me for saying that it was "a thrill of a lifetime." Bobby insisted that "It shouldn't be. I'm just like anyone else."
