If this won’t solve “the male loneliness crisis” after this after the destruction of the East Wing I don’t know what can!
A reminder that the Kennedy Center is the literal and legal and congressional designated presidential memorial to JFK. This would be like Trump tearing down the Lincoln Memorial to build something “better.”

And that is how you drive down your popularity numbers, even on your true believers and give people reason to defect as you continue your Steven Miller fanfic adventure
Thinking about whoever said that by accepting a meal from people and then arresting them ICE agents broke a cultural taboo that was invented by, like, the first humans to set up a tent

The Republican has majority stole $1 billion from the District of Columbia, preventing the mayor, the city Council, and citizens from benefiting from the revenue, derived from local taxes.
DFL legislators need to insist on a compensation fund of tens of millions of dollars to offset economic harms of the ICE siege. It infuriates me that Mercado Central has to hold a $500,000 bake sale to hold onto their building. Tens of fucking millions.

More than 34,000 Minnesotans signed up to be trained as ICED observers with various activist groups in recent weeks, many of them since Jan. 7, when a federal agent shot and killed Renée Good.

Not everyone can confront ICE and face death, but many, many, many ordinary folks can become Ribbity frogs and harry the flanks of a corporate.
Among many other protests against ICE today, sit-ins at Target stores were held nationwide this afternoon, calling on the corporation to "stop collaborating with ICE."
Protesters with signs sang songs & chanted softly as customers passed by.
This video is from the downtown Target in Minneapolis.
