On top of the concentration camps, kidnapping, and murders, the news now reports ICE is buying microwave tech to kill the car engines of first amendment legal observers. And Democrats are still not even asking to claw back the 2025 budget increases.
OMG. The facts in this case were so damning. The father should be held accountable under these circumstances. I want stronger gun laws, but this verdict doesn’t let lawmakers off the hook. It might prevent some parents for making the same deadly mistakes.
Too many women in the workforce and delaying or foregoing childbearing? The Heritage Foundation has a plan for that. And it is the opposite of Robin Hood: It's a huge cash transfer from poor single moms to to wealthier married parents.

Trump is the biggest liar in presidential history. His lies from his #SOTU speech has been fact checked.

Trump takes credit for lower crime rates in Washington, DC after sending federal troops last year.
Fact check: Since peaking in 2023, D.C. violent crime fell in 2024, before Trump took office, and has continued to fall at similar rates before and after federal intervention.

I appreciated Al Blumstein’s in-depth analysis of crime and CJ systems. I came to know him early in my career when many were grappling with the surge in gun violence connected to crack cocaine markets. He was right on many issues and always kind.
While I’m happy to be part of this webinar, I don’t love the title chosen by CCJ. The weight of solid research evidence refutes the notion that more guns (civilian ownership and carrying) leads to less crime.
I’m looking forward to participating in this upcoming webinar sponsored by CCJ.
I’m only 5’8”! 🧐
I hope the O’s make a trade for an upgrade at 3B. Can’t bet on Westburg being healthy. Mayo is a poor fielder at 3B who might break out with the bat, but it’s a roll of the dice.
Two issues I'm pondering. One is that you can't move this many people without inflicting tremendous physical and psychological harm on those deported and on society itself. The second is that left in place for years, mass detention on a whole new level will be normalized. It rarely vanishes. [1/3]
Love this article by @marclevin.bsky.social It includes lots of evidence-based insights and recommendations for reducing violent crime, promoting justice, and enhancing community views of the acceptability and legitimacy of law enforcement. Obviously, ICE & CBP threatens all of these outcomes.

Researchers studying political violence, please consider submitting your manuscripts for a special edition of Injury Epidemiology focusing on political violence. Injury Epi publishes many studies on violence and its prevention including political violence.
“Watchfulness is the most dangerous form of resistance because it obstructs the Trump regime’s project of habituation. Fascism works by making the extreme normal.” @fotoole.bsky.social
“The sin of civic “interference” is in fact the saving grace of democracy.”
DOGE actions caused the loss of 294,000 jobs in 2025, beating out market/economic conditions, business closings, cost-cutting, AI, and restructuring.
Congratulations, Elon Musk! The #1 cause of US job loss in 2025!

This certainly rings true with my observations.

I hope this gets a lot of attention and kaitlancollins.bsky.social asks Trump about his pardons of J6 criminals.
Pam Bondi’s Epstein Testimony Exposed the Whole Game - Slate
Excellent piece that gets to the core of Trump’s and Bondi’s use of federal law enforcement to protect the powerful, aid Trump, punish those who don’t bow to Trump, and fail everyone else, especially the most vulnerable.
👏👏Bravo!

Less than 2% of immigration deportation orders during Oct-Dec, 2025 were prompted by crimes committed other than illegal entry. Billions of $s, countless violations of civil rights, many deaths & injuries, millions traumatized. This isn’t about public safety.
“I will not apologize because I did nothing wrong” defines who Trump is as a human being.
The fact that so many people voted for and continue to enable this is sadly defining what America is as a country.
The United States government is retaliating against 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos and his family for having the temerity to challenge their unlawful detention with a habeas petition.
That’s retaliation. This is Kilmar Ábrego García all over again. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...
I’ve got a herder, too. Herders are going to herd. You’d think a dog daycare business would understand and accommodate.
I have this, too.
They are getting rid of one of the best things about The Post and one of the best sportswriting teams of any newspaper.
A souvenier in more ways than one. This freaking sucks.
I can’t think of a crime that ever dropped this fast, yet nobody is talking about it. Obviously, I’m very curious what is driving the drop.
