VAN SUSTEREN: The church -- that's a particularly troubling issue because you got a pastor, I purposely didn't name it, he's reportedly associated with ICE

NOEM: Thank you for not naming him. People don't realize that when you keep naming someone over and over, you increase the threats against them

when I talk to my European friends my stance isn’t “sorry”, it’s “I hate that motherfucker with every bone in my body and will do everything in my power to achieve a world in which he spends the rest of his life in a prison cell”

There are lots of great things to say about Dolly Parton – I love pointing to her scientific philanthropy during the pandemic – but my favorite is that she has probably done more for childhood literacy than anyone alive. Happy 80th birthday, Dolly.
Entertainer, childhood literacy advocate, and *scientific philanthropist* Dolly Parton was born #OTD in 1946.

Mostly known for singing and songwriting, Dolly's Imagination Library program has distributed over 100 million free books to kids around the world. 🦋 📖 🎶

“I don’t think the president’s personal militia recruited from white supremacist gangs can be reformed” shouldn’t be a controversial statement, or taken as anything but an obvious statement of fact, and yet here we are.

I don’t believe that for a second. Readying 1,500 active duty infantry soldiers to deploy on the streets of American cities does not signal a fear of optics to me. These are the exact optics he campaigned on.
Trump is privately worried about the "optics" of ICE raids and his advisers are looking for ways to soften them, Axios reports. I'm calling bullshit: The terror and violence cannot be hived off from the broader policy agenda. They are 100% intrinsic to it.

New piece:

Trump’s Own Advisers Suddenly Unnerved as ICE Raids Take Horrific Turn
So the president doesn’t like the “optics” of what ICE is doing. But there’s no such thing as sanitized, popular mass deportations—and this is by design.

Can we please stop saying America right now is Nazi Germany? Adolf Hitler & the Nazis drew significant inspiration from American racial policies and practices, particularly U.S. segregation laws (Jim Crow), anti-miscegenation laws, and immigration restrictions as models. Europe got this from the US

The images and stories coming out of Minneapolis are extraordinary. We can't say we did not know what was happening. Lots of people are putting their bodies on the line to make sure we do.

It REALLY frustrates me that everyone always forgets LaMonica McIver.
Democratic politicians facing frivolous criminal investigations from Trump:

Kat Abughazaleh
Elissa Slotkin
Jason Crow
Tim Walz
Jacob Frey
Letitia James
Lisa Cook
Mark Kelly
Eric Swalwell
Adam Schiff
Two days ago it was Elissa Slotkin. Last week it was Jerome Powell. Before that, Mark Kelly. Weaponizing the justice system against your opponents is an authoritarian tactic.

The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good is the federal agent who shot her.

Feel Good Corner:

Kidron Volunteer Fire Department rescued a horse named Frosty who fell through ice last week. Frosty was cold and tired but able to stand on her own afterward and got the all clear from veterinarian.

There's a cop too but he does nothing.

"Worse than Bush after Katrina" is a polling benchmark that I thought that partisan polarization had made impossible
Pollster: 58% of Americans say Trump's second term has been a failure. A year into term number two, Trump's numbers look worse than any other president. Trump is even worse than George W. Bush after Katrina and a long period in the Iraq War. This is really, really bad.

this is some bidness - a wee spot of frank talk about risk, fear, whiteness and doing more
