@adamserwer.bsky.socialReposted by @chrislhayes.bsky.socialThe takeaway from Bo French suggesting Asian students are “foreigners” and the tepid GOP response is that the Trump-era Republican Party is increasingly explicit about its belief that the only good immigrants, and the only real Americans, are white.

@chrislhayes.bsky.socialI was literally, today, reading through firsthand testimony of Colfax survivors.
@chrislhayes.bsky.socialI've been immersed in research on Reconstruction in Lousiana and it's a very difficult truth to absorb that the white terrorist movement in the South was among the most successful terrorist movements in global history. Took 10 years but it won a total & complete victory through murder and atrocity.
@chrislhayes.bsky.social“last year, Stephen Miller asked the bureau to allow agents to go undercover in his Virginia neighborhood's political activist group, several sources with knowledge of the matter told CBS News.”
@chrislhayes.bsky.socialNo AI for kids. Full stop.
@volts.wtfReposted by @chrislhayes.bsky.socialAs always with Rs, the sense is not so much that they deny the physical phenomenon of climate change as the presence or absence of the phenomenon simply never enters their thinking. They interact with it *purely* as a partisan matter, something libs care about. No awareness of a world beyond.
@jimboch.bsky.socialReposted by @chrislhayes.bsky.socialIt’s crazy how Catholicism is apparently real
@chrislhayes.bsky.socialI feel very happy for White Sox fans who have definitely earned some joy.
@chrislhayes.bsky.socialWaiting for the @volts.wtf take on the permitting bill
@chrislhayes.bsky.socialThis a perfect little clause summing up our very very strange times.
"to learn how Anthropic — which could be valued at $2 trillion — might apply centuries of human moral wisdom to its models, as rapidly as possible"
@chrislhayes.bsky.socialyes and ala cybersecurity, you end up with a kind of arms race on each side with ai powering lots more calls on a service and then ai on the other side doing a lot more screening.
@chrislhayes.bsky.socialRIP Cubs 2026. PCA season was amazing and I’m grateful, pitching injuries too much to overcome, but also: it continues to burn that this organization with all its resources keeps getting lapped by Milwaukee. This year felt like a step back.
@chrislhayes.bsky.socialyes they absolutely should be redesigned, but I also think it's possible - and I don't know, can't predict the future - that as the technology diffuses the entire interface this set of tasks totally changes across the board, in the same way the internet/phone access changed it and even more.
@chrislhayes.bsky.socialI was actually talking about the Caribbean where I think the legal argument for murder is even stronger than the arguments in the Iran context, though there are definitely arguments there.
@chrislhayes.bsky.socialRight but I’m not sure how long that lasts! Honestly. We’ll see.
@opinionhaver.bsky.socialReposted by @chrislhayes.bsky.socialremember: it saved no net money, social services US citizens are getting cut, and left the US in a weaker place geopolitically. none of the debates about fiscal responsibility, obligation to US citizens first, or 'hard choices' actually apply. they're all bullshit. killed people for nothing at all.
@chrislhayes.bsky.socialBtw, as @annielowrey.bsky.social chronicles in her latest book, this “time tax” is particularly onerous for low income folks and benefit recipients.
@chrislhayes.bsky.socialThere are so many tasks in managing a household that are annoying and a time suck and not fulfilling or interesting in any way and not really outsource-able in any way that would be great to offload. Please, yes, figure out what I actually owe my dentist and pay it, thank you.
@chrislhayes.bsky.socialBracketing for a moment whether it *works* or whether Meta can be trusted, this does strike as obviously the most appealing and genuinely useful application of the technology for people in their actual lives.
