Samuel Alito’s wife stone cold stunning him repeatedly as he fails to reach the flag, Adam Cole is disgusted, spectators are powerless to intervene, someone in God’s name stop this madness

It sure would be comical if Samuel Alito had recently published an opinion in which he expressed strong feelings about flags and wrote that passersby viewing a flag flying over a building would naturally assume the flag conveys some message on the owner's behalf www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/21p...

It is possible to (1) deplore how Columbia University's administration is reacting to the on-campus protests and (2) also think it is very bad that a bunch of ghoulish, antisemitic opportunists have taken it upon themselves to hang out just off-campus, harassing Jewish students and celebrating 10/7.

The weight of history is against Trump in his bid for immunity from prosecution for his attempts to overturn the 2020 election. Today 15 historians—including 7 members of @brennancenter.bsky.social Historians Council on the Constitution—filed a SCOTUS brief making exactly that point. ⬇️🧵

After Claudine Gay's resignation, Rufo learned that plagiarism was a smear that he could use to attack scholars of race, no matter how flimsy the evidence. New, from me. Please share if you want people to understand the machinery behind these attacks. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/open-seaso...

This is a witch hunt targeted primarily at scholars of color who study race. Chris Rufo now going after Christina Cross for "plagiarism" - his go-to example is *descriptions of data that are similar.* There are only so many ways you can describe data!

Open season on scholars of racedonmoynihan.substack.com They are facing both personal attacks and institutional censorship

As others have argued, the most imminent political risk of AI isn’t so much the creation of more sophisticated disinfo, but fostering a climate where anything might be fake, therefore you have permission to believe whatever you find emotionally satisfying.

Trump claimed that the videos shown during the Hur hearing were "AI" — not because they were but because the advent of AI allows him to engage in his long-standing practice of muddying the truth.

“Purify”

Alabama's "Don't Say Gay" law prohibits discussion of sexual orientation and gender identity in K-5. This year’s bill would expand the ban to include all of K-12. “It’s seeking to purify the schools just a little bit,” a state rep said

They’re not even bothering to hide it now: Jack Posobiec at CPAC: “Welcome to the end of democracy. We are here to overthrow it completely. We didn’t get all the way there on Jan. 6, but we will endeavor to get rid of it.” America, please don’t treat this election as normal politics.

I'm telling you, get on the SAVE plan if you have federal student loans. This is the Biden administration's vehicle for delivering student debt relief. You can apply for a federal consolidation loan if you're like me and fell into the PHEAA gap. It was not hard and didn't take much time

Good and keep going. www.nbcnews.com/politics/whi...

Biden administration cancels student loans of more than 150,000 borrowers under new planwww.nbcnews.com Those who qualify must be enrolled in the administration's Saving on a Valuable Education repayment plan, which was launched last summer.

if there's an office where a Republican is running unopposed anywhere in the country there are a lot of resources (including me, for whatever help I am) for you to run because at this point the RNC isn't going to have a dime to spend on anything other than the presidential race

Pundits: Trump organized an insurrection and the Constitution says that's disqualifying, but really, it seems undemocratic to not let people figure that one out for themselves. Literally the same pundits: Biden is old and should step down rather than make people vote for him.

It’s thundering in February in the Adirondacks. It’s 50 degrees. We are beyond fucked.

Seeing some takes that are like "Rufo isn't an evil genius" and like one of the biggest things people are going to have to understand about the coming years is that wielding power and harming others rarely requires cleverness or intelligence to do.

The perverse pointless cruelty of forcing a woman to risk her life giving birth to a guaranteed DOA baby is breathtaking. And there’s ZERO political upside! WHO is this for? A handful of power-mad sadists? Just mind-boggling wickedness.
