while some of the aides who work for Home Instead may be great people, that company’s management will knowingly let your loved one suffer and die if it means making one extra dollar in profits — and then try to gaslight you on it. Under no circumstances should anybody fuck with them.

Welp Carrollton continues to be a Krewe I won’t be watching parade. The whole “pelting cop cars with bags of beads” was the sort of chaos that could intrigue me but not “being racist dicks”
Reports on Facebook that they were also yelling racial slurs and aggressively throwing at bystanders.😡

ICE sacked some tiny Idaho town and deported ~4 percent of the population at a stroke, it's liable to collapse the local economy www.nytimes.com/2026/02/09/u...

If you've missed my royal coverage as all of this Epstein/Andrew stuff has been happening, I have good news!
I decided to make a newsletter/blog in order to report the royal stuff I'm finding in the Epstein Files, because I have nowhere else to put it! Two stories up already.

What sort of sociopath drinks orange juice with extra pulp? It’s got the consistency of a slushy made with orange zest and a pile of dead skin flakes

as somebody who’s done ed boards and written endorsements, I can assure you this is a long winded way of telling your readers you a bunch of pathetic whiny bitches
From the Editorial Board: Kat Abughazaleh made a show of declining (sending a spokesman, for goodness sake) to be part of the editorial board’s endorsement interviews after first informing us she would attend.

It’s wild watching a grown ass man lick bloody boots so eagerly in public
Democrats want commonsense reform for ICE:

End the roving patrols and racial profiling.

Take accountability and abide by the same rules as local police.

Masks need to come off, body cameras need to stay on—no secret police in the United States of America.

A newborn in Minneapolis hadn’t eaten for a day and a half

Her mother risked going into work when ICE took her away. At home waiting for her were her 16yo daughter and the 3mo baby

The teen tried to feed the baby, who was exclusively breastfed, formula to no avail 19thnews.org/2026/02/minn...
When one mother was taken by ICE, another stepped in to donate breastmilk
Moms in Minneapolis are donating diapers, food and time to help families who have been ripped apart by ICE.

People who oppose outdoor dining and bar spaces are almost always the shittiest neighbors, they never say hello on the street and act like your robbing them if you do, are fanatical believers in HoAs and have really boring sex.

In any other state with a functioning Democratic Party they’d be banging on his door all day every day and begging him to run for governor or the senate.
This is an important watch. If you’re from Louisiana you should already know this and why you should be mad as hell about what’s happening.
