I don’t need to coordinate with a leftist to know that masked ICE agents shooting fleeing people are in fact scared little fascists who should be documented, shamed, and prosecuted for murder, not brave or enforcing laws or under attack by anyone
Leavitt: "The deadly incident that took place yesterday in Minnesota yesterday occurred as a result of a larger, sinister left-wing movement that has spread across our country where our brave men and women of federal law enforcement are under organized attack."

Everyone’s excuse for why their Spotify Wrapped is messed up is that they play something as background music. Mine doesn’t account for what we listen to as background at home: live broadcast of FIP through the France Inter app. Probably the best radio station in the world.

I’m really glad Election Day is a state holiday. It should be a local and federal holiday too. It should have street festivals, a 5k race, food trucks, and a parade. It shouldn’t just be me watching CNN with a six pack yelling “POLLS ARE CLOSING” and figuring out when I’m going to bed

Dropping off and picking up a kid from school is one of the most frustrating parts of a parent’s day.
But it’s also often the most dangerous part of a kid’s day.
