Historian of Reconstruction here, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson is emerging as the great dissenter in the tradition of John Marshall Harlan. Her opinions will be read long after Amy Coney Barrett is a mere footnote in history. nytimes.com/2025/07/05/us/…

What Frederick Douglass said of slaveholders applies to today’s authoritarians. “For this cause they hate free society, free schools, free states, free speech, the freedom asserted in the declaration of independence, and guaranteed in the constitution.” teachingamericanhistory.org/document/the-s…

The little bars show what we spend to protect our American homeland against all forms of terrorism, drugs, gangs, organized crime, child exploitation, and foreign espionage. The big bar is what we will now spend to deport migrants, most of whom will have no criminal record.

BREAKING: There are now at least 82 people declared dead in the Texas floods. It's so incredibly tragic :( Here is ABC news calling out the Trump administration's cuts to the National Weather Service. Does Trump bear some responsibility?

An important piece. It shows how desperate Patel and Trump are to provide (fake) "evidence" that the 2020 election was rigged. Why? So they can now, under the cover of "election integrity," go about rigging the next one. thebulwark.com/p/youll-never-…

A huge tax break snuck into Trump & the GOP's big ugly bill would allow private jet owners to write off the full cost of their planes in the first year of purchase. Meanwhile, the law will cause millions to lose food assistance and healthcare. "Party of the working class."

MacArthur Park today is what a mass deportation regime looks like. It’s what it’s supposed to look like. Mass deportation is both the cause and the excuse for mass militarization.

ICE just got a 265% detention funding boost. Palantir software is being used to create the federal government’s first national citizenship data bank. The Trump regime is attacking naturalized citizens and birthright citizenship. Be warned — Trump’s police state is here.

This is the stuff. You can’t fake this. You can’t consultant this. Meanwhile Cuomo/Adams can barely show their faces, and are currently fundraising in the Hamptons. If Democrats cant support this they can’t see what’s in front of their faces. Hakeem Jeffries Chuck Schumer

To reiterate an obvious point: The military operation in MacArthur Park was farcical. But it also reveals a habit of thinking and acting by major government organizations dangerous to a free society. What starts as farce can end as tragedy.

UPDATE: This just got worse. Donald Trump apparently cut a secret side deal for MILLIONS in pro-Trump ads. That would mean Paramount and its soon-to-be owner are shelling out $30 MILLION+ to support Trump—all while trying to get his approval on their merger. Is this bribery?

Your Prime Day reminder that half of Amazon warehouse workers struggle with food & housing costs. A third have had to rely on government assistance like SNAP — which is about to get cut. If Bezos can spend $50M on a wedding, Amazon can afford to treat its workers with dignity.
