Yes, ICE is a Gestapo-like police force compromised largely of white supremacists who were unable to obtain jobs in traditional law enforcement. But so many of the anti-ICE people I talk to are like the worst wine moms . I have never felt more politically homeless.

If your position is that regime change should be forced on countries where the president does not respect democratic norms and regularly kidnaps opponents using an officially sanctioned paramiliatary, have I got news for you about your position on the United States

We stand by the people of Venezuela and support a peaceful and democratic transition.
Any solution must respect international law and the UN Charter.

An Anti-Defamation League that actually believed in its stated mission would savage Trump for his comments about Rob Reiner and his wife, but they are too busy trying to find out whether an Oberlin student said something critical of Israel.

This is fucking grim. Somebody invented a white guy, an "IT professional" named Edward Crabtree, who stopped the Bondi shooting and spread it all over the internet, which was picked up by AI agents and slop aggregation sites.

I have never met a Christian who talks about Jesus as much as AI addicts talk about their chatbots.
And I'm a banjo player who lived in Georgia for 20 years. I've met *literal* snake handlers.
I hope the psychologists can keep up, but I'm worried they're going to get replaced by chatbots too.

I'm begging y'all not to rehabilitate Marjorie Taylor Greene just because she's fighting with Trump.

Second, this is the person who thought Jewish space lasers were responsible for California wildfires.
