We Need to Talk About the Right’s New Voter Suppression Target: Women The SAVE Act would make it harder for married women in particular to vote, and that is just one part of the MAGA right's misogynist project.

"By suggesting that the household has one voice, one will, and then insisting on the indisputable role of the husband as the head of the household,they are saying that any deviation by the wife is already morally and spiritually illegitimate.What they want is to make it legally illegitimate as well"

Police search of Royal Lodge continues as Andrew released from custody – live updates The arrest of the 66-year old former prince has sent shockwaves through the UK and abroad, with reaction rolling in from the US to Australia * King says ‘law must take its course’ * What the papers say * Calls for justice in the US US president Donald Trump described Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s arrest as a “shame” and “very sad thing”. When asked by reporters for his reaction, he said: I’m the expert in a way because I’ve been totally exonerated so I can speak about it … I think it’s a shame. I think it’s very sad. I think it’s so bad for the royal family. It’s very, very sad. To me, it’s a very sad thing. When I see that, it’s a very sad thing … Continue reading...

Sergei Semenovich Voroshilov - Troika in the snow

In 1997, Tory MP Rupert Allason lost his seat to a Lib Dem by 12 votes.

A week before the election he and his team failed to tip waitstaff after having dinner at a restaurant leading to all of them collectively agreeing to vote Lib Dem.

That was 14 votes.

This is very, very common.

What’s Behind the Centrists’ Resistance to the “Resistance Liberals”? They’re acknowledging now that the people who called Trump a “fascist” were right. But somehow we’re still not to be trusted.

It is not incidental to Trump’s political project how many of its key figures—including the president himself, Elon Musk, Defense Sec. Pete Hegseth, and RFK Jr.—have had serious assault allegations made against them.

It informs how they behave and how they justify themselves. trib.al/3SlI55o

No, I’m not having a hard time figuring out this piece, why would you say that?

On February 13, 2026, Petitioner [REDACTED] filed a Petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus. Dkt. 1. The same day, the Court issued an Order to Show Cause requiring Respondents to respond to the Petition no later than February 17, 2026. Dkt. 4 at ¶ 1. That order also required Respondents to file all their supporting documentation by February 17, 2026. Id. at ¶ 2. On February 18, 2026, Respondents late-filed their response to the Petition along with a declaration and single exhibit. Dkts. 5–6. Around two hours later, the Court issued an order requiring Respondents to file a declaration and exhibits references in the late-filed Response but not filed with the court, along with a declaration explaining the reason for filing late, within 24 hours. Dkt. 7. Respondents finally filed the balance of their supporting documentation by 4:06 P.M, February 18.1 Dkt. 9. Respondents never moved the Court for an extension of time to file their response or supporting documentation. Third Declaration o f[REDACTED] in Response to Text-Only Order ECF No. 7, Dkt. 10, at ¶ 9 (hereinafter “3d. [REDACTED] Decl.”). They never even contacted Counsel for Petitioner to inform him of the late filing. In the declaration, of 1 The declaration explaining the cause for late filing was not filed until 11:06 P.M. that night. Dkt. 10.

Assistant U.S. Attorney [REDACTED], Counsel for Respondents offers a host of limp excuses for filing late. First, AUSA [REDACTED] admits he was fine with violating the Court’s scheduling order, instructing his staff that it was okay to “file before midnight if possible or early Wednesday morning.” 3d. [REDACTED] Decl. at ¶ 3. His excuse for the late filing of the response itself is risible: support staff was offline and, in [REDACTED] own words, “I do not know how to file documents through CMECF.” Id. This is no excuse. The Court’s order makes no exception for staff unavailability or the failure of an attorney to know the basic functions of their profession.2 See Order to Show Cause, Dkt. 3. Further, Counsel for Respondents admits he was not prepared to file all of the documentation the Response relied upon even at that late date. As he points out, he only requested a copy of the travel document after the Court’s order to respond further. 3d. [REDACTED] Decl. at ¶ 6 (“Upon receipt of the Court’s Order, ECF No. 7, I immediately contacted ICE and requested the travel document referenced in the [REDACTED] Declaration as it had not been provided to me earlier.”). It is troubling that Counsel for Respondents knowingly referenced documents he did not have, had not seen, and seemingly had no plans to see until the Court ordered them produced. See, e.g., Response to Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus, Dkt. 5 at 2, 4 (hereinafter “Response”). Besides the potential ethical issues that filing without ever seeing relied-up evidence raises,3 it evinces a total lack of respect for Petitioner’s rights and the Court’s order. Counsel for Respondents apologies to the Court and below-signed counsel for the late filing. 3d. [REDACTED] Decl. at ¶ 10. Wherefore Petitioner, who has been unconstitutionally detained for two months? 2 Counsel for Petitioner will note that he can somehow manage to file documents through CM/ECF himself without the resources and might of the Federal Government…

Feds blew a deadline in one of my habeas cases. Didn't file everything until 4pm the next day. Court ordered the AUSA to explain why he filed late. His response? It was 11:30pm and “I do not know how to file documents through CMECF.”

It drives me insane that Elon Musk basically did a Holodomor on the third world and it's not treated like a bigger deal. This should be the number one thing that people know him for. This should be in the first paragraph of his Wikipedia entry. This is a history book scale atrocity.

USAID absolutely was imperfect and had a lot of problems: we are also now witnessing the utterly unfathomably evil consequences of taking it out back and shooting it.

One year ago today Jess and I met Nyx and her sisters. While the other puppies wrestled, Nyx ignored her sisters and crawled into Jess’s lap, claiming us as her own. She melted our heart that day and has since become a wonderful member of the family. Love you, Nyx!

When you take the time to observe nature closely, you find yourself moved by many things. And I believe that in order to preserve this sense of wonder, we humans must also delve deeper into our thinking.
