The Republican Party is now led by Nazis. There is only one rule now-
Never help the Nazis
Never vote to confirm their people. Never allow unanimous consent. Never. Never. Never. There is no bipartisan anymore. There is just helping Nazis or not helping Nazis.

My daughter tried the steak quesadillas at Taco Bell and said the sauce was too “spicy”. Too salty maybe. Unpleasant tasting? Sure. But ”spicy”? My children are the living embodiment of Minnesota parodies.

If any white, native-born US citizen thinks they will stop at immigrant children, they need to wake the hell up.
Authoritarians only *begin* with scapegoating the "other". That normalizes their violence and establishes their control. They are absolutely coming for us, next.

ICE has been targeting young kids for months, separating families and instilling fear.
Tell Congress to pass legislation ensuring no child is arrested without a warrant and coerced to give up their rights by immigration agents.

ICE: Stop Terrorizing Children
ICE is traumatizing children as young as 14 – trying to strip them of their rights while they're without attorneys or family to help them. Take action against these horrific abuses now.

According to Howard Lutnick, Donald Trump's favorability has fallen by 150% since January.
FOX: If you cut something by 100%, the cost goes down to 0. If you cut it by 600%, the drug companies are actually paying you
LUTNICK: What he's saying is if a drug was $100 and you bring it down to $13, it's down 7 times
F: Not a 600% cut
L: But it's 700% higher price before. It's down 700% now

The best skater I ever saw as a derby ref was a guy who used to come to open skate and spend the entire time pretending to fall down in increasingly acrobatic ways. He always looked like he was on the verge of catastrophe, but just kept going.

NB: When I, a professor of law, profess that an act is unlawful, I am not doing it to inform the lawbreaker, but rather to inform you, the reader.
So the question “what, like you think he cares?” is inapposite. The question is whether *you* care. I think you should, which is why I bother.

Abolishing ICE and throwing everyone involved into prison for the rest of their lives is the MODERATE position.
ICE agents violently detained another disabled person, causing severe injuries.
Arturo Ruvalcaba lives in Utah and is deaf.
Three ICE agents grabbed him at a bus stop.
He tried to use sign language to communicate his disability to them, and they interpreted that as “resisting arrest”.

A deaf Utah man says ICE agents injured him months ago and he’s still in pain. Now he’s suing.

He tells me about Zohran Mamdani announcing he's moving into Gracie Mansion:
"Beware of the ghost. I told [Zohran] about it. So the ghost is there. It's a friendly ghost, as long as you're doing right by the city. If you don't become right by the city, he turns into a poltergeist."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hf7ezrajxadu7v3tzcyij424/bafkreigis3istuaryrpny4ksmoh46xcs3yfowvfuj3t3iouxpy5uiyw2fq@jpeg)
