I don't gamble on sports, ever. However, I do buy a lottery ticket sometimes.
The thing I'm buying when I buy a lotto ticket is less the infinitesimal chance of winning as much as the opportunity to dream of what I'd do with the money.

Craig: "In my district, 2 days ago a special ed teacher pulled into her school parking lot, her windows were smashed, she was taken & detained for 12 hours. I've never seen such an out of control agency. That's why as soon as I leave, I'm joining a group to file articles of impeachment against Noem"

ICE Shoots Projectile and Takes Out Kid’s Eye
Surgeons spent six hours removing shards of glass, plastic, and metal from his face. Unfortunately, the damage to his left eye was irreversible.

How is this not inciting violence?
Why must they remind ICE that they have immunity?
One of their agents just shot a killed a woman in broad daylight and they’re effectively telling them to go ahead and do whatever they want because they’re above the law.
Be safe Minneapolis.

The win Trump wants is to see maps with Greenland as part of a bigly-er United States. The win the people around him want is to blow up NATO. This isn't humoring him like an empty rebranding of NAFTA as USMCA. That's first term. There are two relevant motives here and none of this satisfies either.

Frey: "You cannot drag pregnant women through the snow. You're not allowed to take teenagers out of their car and detain them when they are in fact American citizens. That is against the law in every state. That is against our US Constitution."

"fail fast, fail forward, fail better" has been repeated so many times it's become meaningless.
What if we just stopped using the word entirely?
What if we just poked reality to see what happens?
What if we just...ran the experiment?

Failure vs. Success is the Wrong Frame.
How many novels exist only as "I'm still outlining"?
How many startups live permanently in "stealth mode"?
How many paintings never get painted because the painter is waiting until they're good enough to not mess it up?
The obvious response is to tell these people that failure is fine, actually.

At a church in Minneapolis that is hosting an anti-ICE singing vigil, which will later process through the neighborhood.
They sing: “This is for our neighbors who are locked inside, together we will abolish ICE.”

The message from the White House this morning is that, once again, it falls on ordinary American citizens to remain calm and professional when dealing with the heavily armed agents of the government because they are very emotional and might fly off into a murderous rage at the slightest insult.

Thousands singing “Hey-Oh, we won’t be silent while our friends are gunned down.”

this goes without saying but the whole point is that ice, like the police, represent the power, authority and justice of the american state, which is infallible and absolute. they exist to defeat america's enemies, ergo, anyone they hurt is an enemy of america. their guilt is presupposed.

I don't know that I will ever be able to comprehend (viscerally, not intellectually) how some people's first response to someone being fatally shot by ICE is to go through the victim's social media and litigate her character as though anything in there could justify this tragedy.
