  • We can make it into a bug if we're able to pressure him into recusing himself.

  • ICE doesn't actually wear badges as a rule; they usually just have a mask and body armor, with other clothing being random, often military-style items. Their body armor may say "police " or "dhs" but usually does not even say "ICE"

    There's no real way to tell them from cartel gunmen.

    The local cops also bear significant blame here; they took a cane from a blind man and beat him up and arrested him because they didn't have a language in common with the victim. This is what led to ICE taking him

  • In the past, yes, but not this time

    Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr., who had recused himself in a prior petition in the Boulder case (possibly because he owned stock in ConocoPhillips) did not indicate that he would be recusing himself from the case. ConocoPhillips, which is not named in the Boulder case, is a defendant in other climate lawsuits.

  • So long a he holds it, he is supposed to recuse himself from cases that affect those stocks. This has meant one less vote in the Supreme Court in favor of the oil industry

  • Computer simulations reveal that spraying sea salt aerosols may keep global temperatures near 2020 levels as air pollution falls—but may also redraw regional weather patterns.

  • There are very different levels of responsibility for different people. Dude who started shooting is going to prison. Folks who showed up dressed in black but had no idea what was coming should not.

  • ICE took their papers—and won’t give them back | Immigrants are being released from detention without documents proving their status.

  • I think they'd be happy do deport all the brown people and use people from southern Europe as slaves

  • The Republican Party Has a Nazi Problem | How did the GOP become a haven for slogans and ideas straight out of the Third Reich?

    Jump

  • There is a range of ways to run an economy and a society which can all work reasonably well. Conservative doesn’t have to be fascist. Its more that Republicans purged the non-fascist conservatives from any position of power

  • I think they call them gratuities now for the tax break and legal protection from the Supreme Court

  • High power bills impeding heat pumps, California’s electrification goals

    Jump

  • I'd be writing a letter to the Los Angeles Board of Water and Power Commissioners if things were that unreliable.

    And yeah, nothing built before the 1970s energy crisis in California has insulation. Stuff built after that tends to be well-insulated.

  • High power bills impeding heat pumps, California’s electrification goals

    Jump

  • Yeah, a huge chunk of the California electric bill is paying for houses burned down after sparks from transmission started fires, and paying to power the risk of that happening again

  • The author of the piece is a former Republican. They actually flipped sides on the hate thing a few decades ago, but it took a while to get to the point where open Nazism instead of dog whistling was ok
