“Everyone deserves basic health and safety, and this is a resounding win to protect the people held at the detention center. The state has the right to inspect private detention facilities like the one run by GEO and investigate complaints of unsafe and unsanitary conditions.” - AG Nick Brown

This is regular news, cause the DNC is trying to choose a replacement candidate themselves instead of letting voters decide.

We shouldn't dismiss the desecration of our republican iconography and civic symbols as gross but ultimately trivial. It goes to the heart of his whole project, the hot molten core of what he wants to destroy about America. It's not just generically authoritarian, it's literal Caesarism.

In 2029 tee up a 600-900 member House of Representatives with multiparty proportional representation for the '30 midterms so we can have these fights like a normal democracy last month in @liberalcurrents.com www.liberalcurrents.com/proportional...
Thirteen Democratic House members and candidates announced their support for a centrist initiative aimed at pushing back against the party’s tilt toward democratic socialism.

Imagine going to see the algae in the Reflecting Pool and being arrested by Oklahoma state police
Handful of detainments here by the reflecting pool. They are being done a variety of officers, including Monroe County Sheriff, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma State Police, US Marshals, a county in Texas I can’t make out, and a county in New York I can’t make out.

“In light of this anti-tax slopulism, it bears repeating that taxes per se are not bad. They are not a punishment, they are not theft. They may be misused, but that depends on how frequently we choose to elect Republicans.” 👏👏

Seems to me that this would open the door to invalidating Trump II entirely using the 14th
Not only that: The interpretation would also invalidate executive and judicial appointments made during the Biden Administration. Nullify two years of Democratic control of the Presidency and Congress with “one neat trick”

This obviously not Bsky's *fault* or the fault of anyone on it. (This obsession with how to apportion blame is one of the weirder aspects of this particular pile-on.) And obviously it's not going to help anything for people to go back to X! It's toxic. More people should leave it!

This is such a chilling scenario @andycraig.bsky.social lays out at @theunpopulist.net that I was afraid of running it lest we give Republicans dangerous ideas. But giving advance public notice about nefarious plots is the best way to defuse them. Read and share: open.substack.com/pub/theunpop...
