My Washington State tax is going to go up and that's a good thing. We had the most regressive tax structure in the country for DECADES.

Screenshot of an X post by Jamie Bonkiewicz quoting a post from Riley Gaines. Gaines’ original post says she β€œcan’t wait until we look back as a society” and recognize that a political party β€œadmitted to caring more about illegal immigrants than American citizens.” Bonkiewicz’s quote replaces β€œillegal immigrants” with β€œpedophiles,” intensifying the accusation.

Riley Gaines just lost this race, too.

Kagan did take the legalese equivalent of a flamethrower to Gorsuch.

It was beautiful. I also don’t expect Gorsuch’s sudden desire to uphold the law to continue, but it’s welcome here

I believe in giving credit where it’s due. Hang the entire Gorsuch concurrence in the Louvre.

Master class in telling your colleagues they’ve lost their fucking minds.

You can handle Hamnet. I saw it in a movie theater the day after Christmas. Then I had to see it again, in a movie theater, so I went with another friend a couple of weeks later. It has so many nuances that the repeat viewing was also exceptional. Yes, it was emotional, but it was so human. Do it.

Hey Sarah, why are zero-follower count troll accounts posting comments about how fat and ugly you are on your posts all of a sudden?

GREAT QUESTION πŸ‘‡πŸ»

I tried to reread the Foundation books again when the series came out. I couldn't get past the first few pages.

I was on a research cruise many years ago (in the 1980s) and I got so mad at a Heinlein book that I threw it in the Pacific Ocean. And he used to be my favorite author when I was a kid.

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.

Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Stay free

Kristi Noem and Kash Patel are right: Alex Pretti had no right to possess a gun during a protest. What if he had killed someone?

really fucking important to realize that greg bovino is getting fired not in spite of there being no riots, but because there were no riots

Happening now: nurses and staff at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle are holding a vigil for Alex Pretti. Some are out here in their scrubs. People have brought flowers and are writing notes to add to the candles.

Everything that happened to Alex Pretti is horrible, but there is one part that I just cannot get out of my mind! What do you think? #AlexiPretti #Minneapolis

A major newspaper publishing guide to help people identify the munitions their government is using against them is a real "Late Republic America" timepeice that future historians will comment on.

It was clear during the first few hours after Alex Pretti’s killing that the government’s spin machine wasn’t gaining much traction in their efforts to blame the victim. Even on X, the most salient frames were critical of ICE/CBP and sympathetic towards Pretti.

I'm going to say a couple of things about Alex Pretti's handgun, that I don't think people who do not shoot will initially understand.

This photo was almost immediately distributed by the feds. I think that doing so was, for them and their attempt to whitewash the murder, a *huge* error.

Wow. This is the most damning view yet. One guy ran into the pile and grabbed the guy's gun when he was on the ground and ran away with it. It also looks like he may have fired it accidentally, which caused the other "agents" to fire multiple times. Incompetent murderers. Prosecute ICE
