Meanwhile this is pretty much what Comey did to Martha Stewart. She was sent to prison for impeding an FBI investigation..

An almost-full green dumpster sits inside a bus zone on the corner of broad and Snyder in Philadelphia
Just walked by the “city trash collection site” on Broad & Snyder. It’s… a dumpster. It’s also nearly full already, halfway through Day 1 of the strike.

Buy a gun and learn how to use it. If you cannot do this for whatever reason, connect with trusted people in your community who can. Your local @socialistra.bsky.social is an excellent place to start.

This is such a waste of time. We'd celebrate someone's death we felt was evil. You don't think ppl would be dancing in the street if trump died? We just abhor her sense of evil people. Just bc she said it like that doesn't really make "us" any more pious so this is just self-congratulatory

Even if you think Paul Weiss and Columbia made the only choice available to them in the circumstances (and that's not what I think, to be clear), you have to recognize that there's no future for our democracy if every powerful institution approaches official extortion in this way.

Yeah except all anyone does is just record them, not punch them.
the leap from disappearing the undocumented to disappearing visa holders to disappearing green card holders to disappearing naturalized citizens to disappearing natural born citizens is no leap at all, but a series of tiny steps

This is insane, had to stop reading. This is why NSF and NIH exist? Also has the author heard of monopolies or are they just pretending lefties don't want to get into tech? Wildly irresponsible take.
The useless decorum is disgusting at this point
