My new off-season #RootRootRead thread.
My first book was this one and it was so good and I highly recommend it!
Checked out from library and read for 30 min uninterrupted

Even if you could justify the first shot (you can't), why keep shooting after the vehicle is clearly headed away from you?
“Self-defense”
What www.PAXIS.app tells us:
ICE — can only use deadly force if they face an immediate threat of serious harm.
🚫 Simply being in the way of a vehicle does NOT justify using lethal force.
self‑defense requires a clear, imminent threat to life — not assumptions or fear.

This is the only correct position, and the inevitable response from knee-jerk centrist reactionaries of "it won't work" is not a valid objection. Every member of Congress has a duty to say that what Noem has been doing is not acceptable.
I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy.
She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.

@chrislhayes.bsky.social: “A 37-year-old American citizen, the mother of a young child is dead tonight. She was shot in the face by an agent of the federal government, and that government has spent the day telling despicable lies about her.”

Remind me where he got his medical degree? No one should be listening to or repeating what RFK, Jr says.
RFK Jr. says it may be "better" if fewer children receive the flu vaccine.

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. claimed there is "no scientific evidence" the flu vaccine prevents hospitalizations or death in children, despite previous CDC guidance.

WTF happened today???
You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.
This could be you.

So they're being forced into a name change after being forced to move.
NEWS: The Athletics MLB franchise has been denied the “Las Vegas Athletics” and “Vegas Athletics” trademarks by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for the second time.

And then I witnessed a wreck on the loop as a guy changed lanes into a Tesla who was then pushed into the side and then the front of an 18-wheeler. Thankfully everyone was physically ok, but so scary.

Just saw a lady walking what I thought was 4 dogs until I looked closer and realized it was 3 dogs (leashed) and a cat (just following along off leash).

There’s nothing more beautiful in football than watching a dude whose pregame meal was 3 steaks and a dozen eggs scoop the ball up and truck everybody before diving into the end zone

Magic Johnson was the grand marshal of the Rose Parade today, and as someone who remembers his November 1991 HIV announcement: if you had told anybody that day that he would be alive and healthy 34+ years later, I don't think they would have believed you. Medicine and research—they work.

Imagine the right's reaction if it had been the left that did this.
Amid whitewashing of history of Capitol siege, new transcript of House interview w/ Jack Smith highlights police injuries:
"Cracked ribs, traumatic brain injuries, smashed spinal disks & heart attacks as rioters used bats, flagpoles, chemical sprays, stolen police shields & batons"

That was a very fast, very ugly first half. We're lucky to only be down 6-0. Offense better figure it out in the 2nd half!
