A good post mortem would be for some enterprising journalist to do a piece on how many truly dangerous (accused of violent crimes, etc.) illegal immigrants were arrested in this boondoggle that cost two people their lives and brought chaos to a city. I bet the number is very low.
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Federal authorities announce end to Minnesota immigration crackdown that led to mass detentions, protests and two deaths.

Mr. Cuban, I'm a professor at Yale School of Public Health. Here's a paper published by one of my colleagues in the top medical journal evaluating the Medicare for All Act, which would not only get us there, but would save $450B per year. Happy to discuss! www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

Extraordinary courage from Ahmed al Ahmed, a Muslim, 43-year-old father of two, who bravely risked his life to save his neighbors celebrating Hanukkah.
Praying for his full & speedy recovery.

Is politics weighing on you? Does it ever make you feel alone, like "everyone" is on board with awful things and "no one" cares (or close)?
Then you should go to a No Kings protest. That feeling isn't uncommon, but it's a trick. Go be around some of the many people who agree with you. You'll see.

Reports that a Canadian citizen who has resided in the US since age 10 was abducted at a green card interview.
Her husband is begging ICE to let him fly her back to Canada and they refuse to release her.

I went to the gym today and junk daytime TV was playing on the public TV in front of the treadmills.
I knew society was doomed when there were four commercials in a row for personal injury lawyers promising quick riches.

Good article for those interested in the Japanese language.
There are many ways to refer to one's husband in Japanese. Some of them, however, rub many Japanese women the wrong way. One survey that looked at how women refer to their husbands today provides a glimpse into how Japanese is evolving with the times.

Leftists self-sabotaging by splitting the anti-Trump coalition, thereby ensuring more MAGA victories.
The response to yesterday’s protests has shown that there are a lot of progressives and leftists who don’t see this as movement against Trump, they see it as a fight for who has the megaphone. If 50501 can turn out all these people, they see it as a threat to their own power. It fuckin’ stinks, man.
Establishment Corp liberals will ALWAYS try to diffuse popular movements.
It’s why they exist.
Today showed a lot of people power.
But don’t listen to groups like 50501 who want “family friendly” protest.
