Why Virginiaโ€™s January 6 Teaching Law Should Worry Everyone If the state can mandate history, is it still history?

I lost my cousin on 9-11 and have had to listen to all kinds of conspiracy theories about what happened and why. The state of New York mandates that it be taught through its curricular standards. That's how you do it. What Virginia is doing is dangerous. open.substack.com/pub/kevinmle...

These people act like they are entitled to privacy about stripping other peopleโ€™s basic human rights. They donโ€™t understand anything and they should feel bad.

Thing that really gets my goat is the way people are eager to fund this bullshit but you need eleven layers of analysis and a ton of collateral if you want to open a small grocery store in a food desert.

On the advice of Klonsel: A look under the hood of an Alabama injustice Rocky Myers, a Black man, was sentenced to death after being represented at trial by John Mays, a court-appointed attorney long affiliated with the Ku Klux Klan.

Rocky Myers, a Black man accused of murdering a white woman in Alabama, was represented at trial by a Klan lawyer named John Mays. He had no idea. 30 years later, he's still behind bars. Please take a moment to read and share. www.treadbylee.com/p/klonsel

There is a legal provision in immigration law that someone married to a US citizen can stay in the US while there visa is pending. Immigration officials have long recognized it to allow residency during the wait time. The DHS has just stopped following this part of the law.

CNN is reporting that former Secretary of State and former National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice was seen entering the White House today.

Greatโ€”just what we need in the middle of a war in the Middle East.

Perfect illustration of how the "podcasters are turning on Trump" narrative is bullshit. These guys still want the camps to churn out black smoke, they just don't want to see video of how the bodies get there.

Broad claims about gender and behavior fall apart when studies include ethnically diverse samples Behavioral economics relies heavily on studies of Western, educated people. A recent analysis provides evidence that ignoring racial diversity within the United States has led to flawed generalization...

"The research suggests that generalizations about human behavior are often flawed because they rely on samples composed largely of White individuals."

The real Lord of the Flies: what happened when six boys were shipwrecked for 15 months When a group of schoolboys were marooned on an island in 1965, it turned out very differently to William Goldingโ€™s bestseller, writes Rutger Bregman

I think a lot about how when "Lord of the Flies" happened IRL, the boys worked together to build a little community until they were rescued. But these were Tongans and not British.

If you're touting the Mamdani coalition today, please learn from what Mamdani did after he lost the Black vote in the NYC primary.

He didn't blame Black voters or discount them. He courted the Black vote, showed up, *apologized when he messed up.*

That's a way forward.

For The First Time In Over A Decade, No Star Trek TV Is In Production Or Greenlit The streaming era began with the announcement of 'Star Trek: Discovery' in November 2015.

Hoping that Paramount gets their shit sorted and they renew Kurtzman's contract, and we get Year One + two more seasons of Academy + the Tawny Newsome workplace comedy + United...and maybe Legacy.

US strikes on Iran โ€˜outside international law,โ€™ says Macron Macron joins Spanish PM Pedro Sรกnchez in calling the legality of the strikes into question.

After four days of hesitating, the president of France has joined the prime minister of Spain in saying that the ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ attack on Iran is a violation of international law.

But they are still the only 2 EU leaders to have done so. Will others join?

This is so much more common than many people like to admit. Every time that police or policing supporters say "well I hope you don't ever need to call them," they are illustrating 2 things (1) they believe protection should be conditional on fealty and (2) we can't trust this system to protect us.
