Leftist redneck from Mississippi and now NC. Brewing beer and making wine in a barn for a non profit brewery and winery is a lot better than wearing a suit all day in a Federal Courthouse

/12 Anyway, this would be a huge help for professors being fired and disciplined for dissenting from conservative orthodoxy, if conservatives were honest or principled or if the judicial system could be counted on any more. But James Ho will find a distinction.

After Sherman burned Atlanta, the people of Atlanta swore to never let it happen again. They immediately began construction on an impenetrable barrier of defense known as I-285
The city of Atlanta is a mathematically impossible structure where all points in space are always equally distant from each other. If you pick any 2 locations in Atlanta, they will always, regardless of perceived distance, be a 90 minute drive from each other.

David Brooks, who wrote in the NYT last month, "The Epstein Story? Count Me Out" is... in the latest Epstein photo dump published by @oversightdemocrats.house.gov.

He should absolutely be fired by NYT for this. Major conflict of interest that he didn't disclose.

“When I lost the right to vote, I was upset because I knew how things could have been different in my life,” Walter Lewis, a Black man and father of two from Jackson, tells the Mississippi Free Press on February, 21, 2025.

Lewis' rights were restored last year, allowing him to vote once again.

If I were running for president I'd mention in every speech and debate that I intend to seize every asset owned by the Trump family and use it on restarting USAID and immigrant/asylum-seeker protection and naturalization programs, just to see if I can make that fucker so mad his head pops.

Larry Bushart spent 37 days in jail — all because he posted a meme after Charlie Kirk's murder. He was held on an outlandish $2 million bail.

And now it's time for Sheriff Nick Weems and Perry County to face the consequences for violating Bushart's First Amendment rights.

@aelkus.bsky.social late Ceausescu wasn't *this* tacky and embarrassing.
Per @garretthaake.bsky.social, the extremely tacky "presidential wall of fame" that lines the colonnade to the West Wing now has obviously-Trump-penned plaques insulting or praising the presidents.

i have said this before but if you are actually interested in influencing people beyond a narrow circle of too-online journalists you will be making direct to camera videos on tiktok, instagram and youtube. if you primarily post on text-based social media then you're just dicking around.

This NYT story failed the reader by not digging deeper. One subject dropped out of college after one year (five years ago) and lists "Windows" as his skillset. Story should be: young conservatives who blame immigrants for their personal failures and whose lives won't be improved w/ fewer immigrants

Armed ICE agents trapped US citizens in a restaurant and demanded their papers. Federal agents walked into East African restaurants in Cedar-Riverside, MN. They closed and blocked the doors. Then they demanded to see everyone’s papers. Every person present was a US citizen.

What 'immigration documents' does a US citizen have that would enable them to avoid being subject to arrest on the basis of their race?
Bovino, the man overseeing mass deportations, publicly declared that we must all have our papers on us, at all times, or we could be stopped, harassed, kidnapped, and detained, as they did with the man in this case, who is a US citizen.

It's not even the immigration judge with jurisdiction over the regional case. So this isn't a scrivener's error and it isn't even the scrivener issuing it.

Rep. @algreen.house.gov is a real one.

It’s disgraceful his efforts are not backed by Democratic leadership and the full support of the Democratic caucus.
Rep. Al Green spoke for ~20 minutes earlier this evening when he invoked Rule IX to force a vote on his resolution impeaching Trump for threatening members of Congress with death.

At the end, the speaker pro tem absurdly chided him for "engaging in personalities toward the president."

I saw someone ask elsewhere about what the common law said about the children of Confederates born during during the Civil War.

They were natural born American citizens. Why? Because there is no loyalty test—not for parents, not for children.

You’ll be shocked, I’m sure, that on the list of words you’re not allowed to use are black, Hispanic, and Native American.

While “white” is a-okay.
According to a new court filing, the Trump administration has a six-page list of banned words that Head Start locations are forbidden from using when describing their programs.
Among the censored words: "disability," "race," "women," "trauma," "Gulf of Mexico." Short thread with the full list. 🧵
