Michael Pham fled Vietnam at the age of 13. He was named bishop of San Diego a month ago.

Today, he stood watch at a courthouse: ICE agents were “standing there covered with masks as we walked toward the courtroom. Eventually the agents scattered and went away”

Repeating my helpful little mnemonic song from Twitter:

If he'll drive you to the criming, he's a Fed 👏👏
If he'll drive you to the criming, he's a Fed 👏👏
If you can't get there without him
And you don't know much about him
If he'll drive you to the criming, he's a Fed 👏👏
after another long day of browsing old court documents, i just want to remind everyone that if a stranger agrees to do something illegal with you and they keep asking you to say out loud what the illegal plan is, that’s because the officer is recording you.

The Chief of the Criminal Division at the US Attorney’s Office/Middle District of Tennessee RESIGNED the same day the Acting US Attorney signed the indictment of Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

He writes: “do the right thing, in the right way, for the right reasons.”

There are no coincidences.

1/ If I were pregnant, or considering ever becoming pregnant, I would be so outraged at RFK delisting COVID vaccination.

Not only are unvaccinated women much more likely to miscarry or have a stillbirth if they contract COVID but it leaves newborns, who are extra susceptible, extremely vulnerable.

Public service announcement for parents, managers, teachers, coaches: you can’t judge effort by results.

Inconsistent performance doesn’t mean people aren’t trying their best. It often means they’re doing their best in the face of turbulence.

In humans, variability is a feature, not a bug.
