It’s not just ICE we need to abolish.
The entire law enforcement community is a sham. They lie as easily as they breathe. They cover for one another while brutalizing human beings.
Enough is enough. We need to reimagine safety.

Ok, what the fuck is up with that bizarre Venmo stash cash commercial, with the charcuterie board vest? Did the idea come from AI? Because it seems like something bizarre that AI might write

My mom is trying to tell my husband how to drive in the snow, like he didn't learn how to drive in a place where this wouldn't even delay school for 2 hours 😂 He's from Alaska, woman, hush.

If I ask Google search to divide by zero, do you think it would break AI overviews?
I was thinking of sticking an insult directed at AI before the curse word & my search in hopes that AI's self-esteem craters & it stops trying to interact with me as another option.

Alex Pretti was a good guy with a gun. Notice how good guys don't unholster readily even when hit. They see guns as last resort. If a mass shooting had occurred, maybe Alex would have saved the day as 2A activists love to claim. But we'll never know because his gun was used as an excuse to kill him.
The gun was removed by agents from his waistband - he was never pointing it at them. He was already disarmed when they fired "defensive shots," killing the man. They then fired several shots at his lifeless body.

I had a nightmare about ICE agents sweeping my neighborhood & trying to get into my house a few days ago.
Those fuckface goons tried to order the police away from the scene & removed witnesses from the scene to the Whipple building.

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."

ICE attacked an observer after they tailed a group of clergy on a spiritual pilgrimage.
Our digital producer @sam.vp just so happened to be with the clergy on their journey. He spoke with the observer who was attacked and others who witnessed the assault.
