    Noted pest Donald Trump launches war on bugs (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    In what’s an all-too-predictable fascist arc, President Donald Trump’s behavior is getting odder every day. He’s entirely convinced his dominion and power are infinite, and he’s surrounded himself with people who will never disabuse him of that notion. On Wednesday, this weirdness came in the form of an executive order banning ticks and mosquitoes from Washington, D.C. The order directs the Interior Department, Agriculture Department, Environmental Protections Agency, and Health and Human Servic

    Supreme Court conservatives sink to new low in Trump-enabling (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    When we look back on the second Trump administration, history is not going to be kind to the six Supreme Court conservatives who’ve eagerly assisted in President Donald Trump’s most brutal policies. The latest mortal stain is that they stepped aside to allow Trump to continue third-country deportations with no due process. The administration likes to deport people to countries they are not from and have never been to. Sometimes, that’s because those detainees have orders protecting them from bei

    Survive an ICE shooting? Get charged with a crime. (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    When it comes to Immigration and Customs Enforcement shootings, the agents are never to blame. The administration refuses to meaningfully investigate them and actively blocks states from doing their own investigations. Depressingly, this tactic works best when ICE succeeds in murdering someone—because then there’s no way for that person to describe what led up to ICE’s violence, and the administration gets to control the narrative. But the agency faces a problem when its victims survive their ra

    Very hackable Trump administration vows to ‘secure’ elections (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Oh, thank goodness. If you’ve been worried about the upcoming election, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is here to make sure everything is all safe and secure, and he’s gonna go all warfighter to do it. Having actual troops at the polls is wildly against federal law, but Hegseth has nonetheless figured out a way for the military to intervene in our free and fair and safe elections, all part of President Donald Trump’s quest to make sure those elections remain none of those things. So Whiskey Pete

    Cornell rape scandal proves women’s safety is never the priority (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Thanks to the doggedness of the alleged victim and Cornell University student press, it looks like New York state prosecutors have decided to maybe do some tiny part of their job and look into genuinely horrifying allegations of a 2024 fraternity gang rape. The allegations are as bleak and awful as they come, with the seven named defendants participating in a group chat that appears to have included inviting fellow fraternity members to join in—mid-assault. The victim, who was 20 years old at th
