Linus, Lucy, Huck and Andi keep me on my toes.
Nothing short of abolishing ICE will do. We need to primary all Dems who are pro ICE, starting with Schumer. And make no mistake: anything short of abolishing ICE is pro ICE.
"The first person to be executed for treason in the US was not a spy or someone who sold secrets to a foreign government. It was not a Confederate general who took up arms against his government. It was an abolitionist named John Brown." from @nhannahjones.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2026/02/13/m...

It is. The Jewish Musuem in Prague has a collection of children's drawings from the Terezin ghetto. It was the worst thing I've seen in my life.
“Collection of Handwritten Letters from Children in Detention Center” sounds like an exhibit in the Holocaust Museum.
1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken.
Hundreds of kids are still detained.
We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

Complicity makes you guilty of causing harm, which makes you equally as unsafe as the abuser. Because you stood by and did nothing when someone told you their story, you required more "proof," because that person hadn't done anything to you.
One of the things making so many men uncomfortable with ✨guilt by association✨ around the Epstein files is the knowledge *they* have about men with whom *they're* associated who hurt women, and about whose behavior they've never, not once, considered doing anything.

Wow.
I know you've heard that a federal judge ordered the release of 5 year old Liam Conejo Arias and his father, and that they're now home.
But did you look at the judge's order?
It's less than 2.5 pages and well worth a minute. "Jesus wept."

Yes! I'm so sick of that BS. There were *always* abolitionists. People always knew slavery was wrong. None of this "you have to consider the times."
Also: It isn't giving if it has no impact on you. Engagement is a prerequisite for merit.

This.
We have been told for nearly 30 years that America needed to tolerate mass shootings because the broad availability of guns would help us defend ourselves from an overreaching federal government. That day has come. The people who said this are supporting the federal agents. Many have joined them.
