Totally inappropriate framing considering the seriousness of the allegations. Just disgusting sensationalism for clicks
Lee's lawyers had asked a court to prevent him from being executed by lethal injection. Last week, District Judge Emily C. Marks denied that request, saying those legal arguments belonged in state court.
Lee elected for a nitrogen execution in 2018, the same year the state authorized the method but had not outlined its protocol. Because he had agreed for a nitrogen execution, he dropped a lawsuit challenging the state's lethal injection protocol. (screenshot from an order from last week)
Oh good a bunch of talented reporters are debasing themselves again
Mind you, this comes shortly after Kavanaugh is writing about needing to apply constitutional principles to modern conditions. But I guess historically accurate framing is not necessary for that application
In which Brett Kavanaugh says we should reconsider if the 14th amendment grants citizenship to children of undocumented immigrants born here by invoking American Indians, many of whom, notably, were not uniformly seeking citizenship but sovereignty as the U.S. government eroded their rights
babe wake up the highest court of the land of the richest and most militarily advanced country in the history of the world is waxing poetic about children playing sports
We’re gonna find out this wasn’t true in two weeks and also this really isn’t push alert worthy either way
walked outside my office at just the right time and found a Jalen Brunson cybertruck
That’s uh quite the angle to run with for an outlet that spent a lot of time defending the shooting of Renee Good
Incredible sentence that links to The New York Post article that actually doesn't cite any research.
Thinking about this quote from @alexvitale.bsky.social (again) as Dems have begun to walk back the simplest demands to rein in ICE. As I noted in July, the anti-mask accountability bills proposed didn't have any teeth. After live-streamed extrajudicial killings, we're functionally in the same place.
The Vieques hospital was destroyed by Hurricane Maria in 2017. The locals had incredibly little access to healthcare for years. The facility was *just* completed in Dec. Meanwhile, tourists have flocked to the island+tech guys have bought up land on the island while locals still lack basic services
Lots of both sides let's see how much of a logic pretzel we can create energy emanating from Big Media begs important questions like do reporters have eyes? Is there even a truth in the Beltway Brain, or just somewhere in between what two opposing people say?
Oooo an investigation? And then what will they make some recommendations in 6 months to implement in three years??
"we do not tolerate attacks on places of worship" says the administration that rolled back longstanding policy and is ARRESTING UNDOCUMENTED PEOPLE AT CHURCH
I don’t think the protests have killed all those civilians actually
things are still going great! Healthfirst ensures over 2 million people in NY state, and I'm sure they're well staffed to answer calls about a widespread portal issue. (I have been on hold for 20 minutes and have been calling since Friday with no solution)
