I told my husband this morning that the thing I was saddest about having deleted from the internet with my Twitter account was the 40-tweet (one/day) countdown I did to his 40th birthday were I told the whole story of our relationship memory by memory.

Anyway, feel free to like this for more lore!

"In the oceans, kelp forests tended by sea otters can sequester up to 12 times more carbon than forests not tended by them. That’s because sea otters love to eat sea urchins, who can chow down on entire strands of kelp if left unchecked."

You will be remembered as the most obtuse and impotent Dem minority leader of the last 100 years, and the most untethered to reality. You still have time on this earth to salvage your reputation.

This isn’t some anonymous tip. This is sworn testimony, under penalty of perjury, from someone who said Trump threatened to kill her if she exposed Epstein’s sexual abuse.

Abolish ICE.

There’s no reforming it.

There’s no compromise.

There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.

diplomatic facilities aren't de jure sovereign territory, but "DHS violates the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations" is a fun new one
Uh. So ICE just technically tried to invade Ecuador. Cool new international incident dropping.
1/27/2026 - Minneapolis

ICE just attempted an illegal entry into the ECUADORIAN CONSULATE to abduct someone

They did not have a warrant

Hey! Scientists! Did you discover something cool with your eyes lately? Maybe you made an image with a telescope or microscope? Or made an illustrative figure in a paper?

That's great! Congratulations!

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum.

Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum.

Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum.

ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

We know that famous American ideal, where the government has a right to shoot you dead because of “rhetoric.”
Bovino: "When politicians, community leaders, & some journalists engage in that heated rhetoric we keep talking about, when they make the choice to vilify law enforcement calling law enforcement 'Gestapo' or using the term 'kidnapping,' that is a choice & there are actions & consequences."

The Senate may choose to vote together on the DHS and LHHS bills. Thus, a filibuster on DHS may mean no funding for NIH. What my colleagues are saying:

“Shut it down, public health will understand. I’ll work without pay again.”

ICE agents killed a man and are disappearing the witnesses.
The StarTribune live blog is paywall free:
- The man shot by federal agents this morning has died
- Several witnesses have already been transported to the Whipple building.
- ICE attempted to order local police from the scene, but O’Hara refused, sources said.

They are *murdering* people. *Executing* implies some kind of process. They're just getting pissed off and killing.
Correct. They are *executing* people.

And I will remind: there is a hearing Monday morning in MN where a judge will hear args on a request for a preliminary injunction to stop agents and their activities from continuing there.
The proper word for this is an execution.

I don’t think immediate execution is a reasonable punishment for annoying the heavily-armed masked agents of the state.
