The Old Albuquerque High School building, a three-story building with brick facade, large windows, and concrete accents.
New Albuquerque High School Building. A much more dour and largely windowless structure.
Similarly, the original building and location of Albuquerque High School, built in 1914. Compared to the new building and location for the school, much of which was built in 1979.

If Trump bombs power plants in Iran, the humanitarian crisis will be horrific. Experts tell me to expect water shortages, closed hospitals, many deaths.

We’re so cooked.

Concerning
DHS should be embarrassed that their ICE agent hires are so soft they can’t handle being videotaped, even while masked, so they resort to pepper spraying women at close range.
And we should be proud of the Santa Barbara women who stood their ground anyway.
Elon Musk, Jeffrey Epstein and Woody Allen on a Carribean island at Christmastime?

“Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I’m just a simple country lawyer. My client, Global Solutions Holdings Conglomerate, LLC is an honest business just trying to turn a profit and put food on the plates for its shareholders. There was no breach of contract here!”
I really want to see someone doing the “I’m just a simple country lawyer” shtick, but in complex federal commercial litigation between two or more multinational corporations. I feel like that would be a good bit.
That is an ICE agent pepper spraying a restrained victim in the face at close quarters; it's an unquestionable and indefensibly abusive use of excessive force that should (but won't) be criminally prosecuted as assault
Ahh, okay, so one of the federal agencies will not be challenging the merger. Good to know.
@nmdoj.bsky.social, care to use your Clayton Act authority and step up to protect competition in the film industry?
A 21-year old anti-ICE protester has been left permanently blinded in California after a Department of Homeland Security agent shot him in the face with a nonlethal round at point-blank range on Friday. trib.al/V6hRQpr
The video also allegedly shows the CBP agent saying “Do something, bitch” before shots were fired. In private Signal chats, the CBP agent boasted to other officers: “I fired 5 rounds and she had 7 holes. Put that in your book boys.” If he felt comfortable enough communicating that to fellow employees, it speaks to an irredeemable organizational culture.
This is the second time in three months a DHS agent called a US citizen a "bitch" as he shot her. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/whos-threa...
The past couple days have made it clear that arresting and prosecuting Johnathan Ross isn’t just the right thing to do, it is necessary to prevent future violence by ICE who have interpreted the situation as “we can do that to whoever we want”
A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."
The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"
"Learned what?" she asks
Then he knocks her phone out of her hand
It’s beyond insane that our overarching internal security agency has spent months tweeting barely-coded messages of support for neo-Nazi groups and the entire media apparatus looks at it and says “That’s odd but certainly not part a major story that is relevant to current events, I’m sure”
This is right, but I'd add that #1 is only unclear because of a pretty perverse line of authority that doesn't need to be that way.
She voted to confirm a Trump judge just yesterday.
Abolishing ICE is the moderate, compromise solution.
I really appreciate Christopher Nolan just honing in on his target demo.
BREAKING: At least 16 files from the Epstein release disappeared from DOJ's webpage, including a photo of Trump, with no explanation.
Give it a couple weeks and Andrew Ferguson and the other FTC folks will be fabricating a coordinated advertiser boycott
Yes, whiteness will adapt however it needs to maintain hegemony.
Just an unbelievably stupid comment.
Even if you buy into the framing of demand, it has an essentially vertical demand curve. People will become homeless before they stop “consuming” healthcare because that is a rational choice! Because the alternative is *dying*!
Absolutely brutal.
GLASHEEN: Antifa is our primary concern right now. That's the most immediate violent threat we're facing
BENNIE THOMPSON: Where is antifa headquartered?
GLASHEEN: ... ... ... we are building out the infrastructure right now
THOMPSON: What does that mean?
