Remember, it's not just the initial rush of the day. Pace yourself. We've also got a solid month or two of Serious People impotently tut-tutting about how bad you are for celebrating. It'll be like the Puritans trying to ban Christmas.
We've all rehearsed for Trump dying so many times we won't know what to do when it actually happens

Trump rapid response: "After takeoff, the AF1 crew identified a minor electrical issue. Out of an abundance of caution, AF1 is returning to Joint Base Andrews. The President and team will board a different aircraft and continue on to Switzerland."

Only a conservative Supreme Court justice could be surprised to learn that many historical laws in America were grounded in gutter racism
The Supreme Court’s “History and Tradition” Test Just Ran Into America’s History and Tradition of Anti-Black Racism
Requiring "historical analogues" for modern gun laws eventually turns up some history that makes even the conservative justices uncomfortable.

Minneapolis and Saint Paul have basically mobilized into a war economy of mutual aid and non-violent defense. I’ve never seen anything like it, even during Covid. People who barely vote are guarding their schools from ICE and doing the shopping for neighbors in hiding.

A beautiful act of actual Christianity.
And a correction: demands for justice don't disrupt worship. They ARE worship. Jesus came to disturb the comfortable. These people and these actions belong in Christ's house. And faith without works (good works to be specific) is dead.

Fresh off an Eagles playoff loss? ICE does not want this heat
I've heard rumors that Philadelphia is next for the ICE invasion after Minneapolis.
Maybe I'm wrong, but
1) More than 11% of all ICE agents are in Minneapolis, and they've utterly failed to pacify the city.
2) Philly is 5x the size of Minneapolis.
3) "Minnesota nice" is a thing. We don't have that.
