I want to emphasize that at this time the unconfirmed reports that President Trump has both arms stuck "elbow deep" in the airplane toilet are just that. We will be monitoring this story. Please be responsible about spreading news that both his arms are "as far as they can go" into the toilet hole.

[shouting to the assembled crowd as Stephen Miller is about to put me in an iron maiden] the price of hot dogs went up another 7¢ this week! don't lose focus on the real issues!
Don’t let them distract you. Trump promised lower costs – we just saw the highest grocery inflation in years.
He doesn’t care about your costs.

"The timelessness of King's words resonates as an incipient death squad marches through Minnesota, prompting a certain strain of Democratic elected official and consultant to shake their head at the awfulness but refuse to redress its cause," writes @attackerman.bsky.social
Martin Luther King Jr. Warned About The Anti-Abolish-ICE Democrat
The heritage that valued order over justice during the civil rights movement animates the Democrat elected and consultant who wants to "retrain" a nativist death squad

This is so great in so many ways but my favorite is that all the people who are clapping along to this like trained seals shat bricks when Michelle Obama suggested eating a vegetable once in a while.
Brooke Rollins: "We've run over 1,000 simulations. It can cost around $3 a meal for a piece of chicken, a piece of broccoli, corn tortilla, and one other thing. So there is a way to do this that actually will save the average American consumer money."

This is fantastic sir but is there any way we could work some discounts into this? Scan 5 ICE QR codes and get a free footlong at Subway or something like that? I think it would really take this idea to another level.
I am introducing the Quick Recognition (QR) Act, which requires ICE and CBP officers to wear uniforms featuring QR codes. When scanned, the code would generate a digital ID displaying the officer’s name, badge number, and law enforcement agency.
ICE should be unmasked both physically and digitally.

We are far past the stage of permissiveness with white-supremacist violence inside DHS. We are witnessing ICE transition into a death squad.
This cannot be reformed. The only question is who will fight to abolish it, and who will accommodate it instead.

Either ICE Is Abolished or It Will Kill Many More Renee Goods
Minnesota is just the beginning of ICE's transformation into a right-wing death squad. But it can be the end

So I think this answers my question about domestic drone strikes, but now I'm wondering if they're going to start doing them before the midterms or wait until after

I guess governing by polls is just the hot thing now, but it would be good if its advocates could wrestle with the fact that there's something deeply insincere and off-putting about Dem politicians issuing statements like "how does shooting a woman in the face bring down the price of eggs???"
