On possibility of 2026 is that people in the administration see ICE as an electoral strategy, targeting swing states to suppress voters of color or to arrest imagined hoards of "illegal" voters before they engage in voter fraud... if so, hard not to see it having the opposite effect
ICE is coming to Portland and Lewiston imminently, their mayors confirmed today. Both cities have large Somali populations.

When reached for comment, ICE wouldn’t even confirm whether or not this action was happening.
ICE is headed to Maine
The Mayors of Portland and Lewiston confirmed Wednesday ICE's imminent presence.

Just told my 3yo daughter about #ICE. She had tears in her eyes. And then she did the Trump raised fist pose and said "Hail #TrumpHYDRA" -- which is the sort of pop culture cross-over that I can celebrate.

A thing that gives me both hope and despair is a deep and abiding faith in the inability of the American electorate to make up its fucking mind
New Gallup figures in these charts. Well, so much for that emerging Republican majority people were writing about in November 2024. Was evidently a mass overreaction to Trump's win and failure to acknowledge softness of support, and thermostatic politics www.gelliottmorris.com/p/trumps-win...

OMG! Cells across the tree of life can swap short-lived messages encoded by RNA — missives that resemble a quick text message rather than a formal memo on letterhead.

This may surprise some Americans, but people in other nations actually have agency.

I'm sure the same people liking this would scoff at the idea that China is behind protests in Minneapolis.
Iran in turmoil, do you think this is spontaneous? More like US CIA involvement. The ugly Americans agitating in other countries politics. It’s even worse when they are attacking its on citizens.

The world feels rough right now

So please enjoy this shrimp, filmed off Cozumel, Mexico. It may be a larval reef shrimp, but we don’t know what species or how long it lives or what it eats. The world is still full of wonder and beauty and mystery.

The Iranian regime has cut off internet connection, so expect that far more is going on inside the country than we see right now. Though what still reaches us, is unprecedented.
