LOTR STANS: Frodo is my sweet babygirl malewife and I would die for him. ❤️🥹 Here is a 14-minute video made of clips of him falling down like an idiot.
Every time I put on a sports bra I feel like my boobs are a mismatched team in a wacky ‘80s comedy. “One of them is a front-facing, all-business type…and the other is a dreamer who loses the plot but follows her heart. They’re going to try and make it work—together! New this summer, ‘Unsupported’!”

This journalist lost 12 pounds between late March and June while reporting from Gaza. The chickens struggle to lay eggs. This weekend, a newborn baby died from malnutrition. There are few words that can express how evil this is.

‼️ This is absolutely absurd. Trump is actively manufacturing a crisis. The Pentagon just announced that he’s federalizing another 2,000 California National Guard troops bringing the total to 4,000, plus 700 active-duty Marines heading into LA. This is a military occupation, not public safety.

Speaking as a veteran to current service members:
We swore an oath to protect this country "against all enemies, foreign and domestic"
You have a hard choice to make. No one wants to make a choice like this. I hope you can find the strength and courage to make the right one

It’s tempting to think things like, “Well, at least these fascist authoritarians are incompetent clowns. Imagine if they were as efficient as the Nazis?”
Except that the sadistic brutality of their tactics often obscures the actual history — that the Nazis were often shocking incompetent clowns.

It is not possible or practical to assert total control over thousands of people, many of whom are protesting spontaneously. The right is very intentionally seeking out negative images and inevitably will find some. What you are doing by obsessing over this is giving the right exactly what it wants
Realizing that waving Mexican flags in front of burning vehicles is a terrible idea… is so not the same as believing that being Mexican is something of a be ashamed of.
It is just a terrible visual that feeds into Trump‘s narrative.

The real enemy of this administration is cosmopolitanism. Whether in Los Angeles or South Africa, multiracial pluralistic democracy is a threat to them because it means their “us or them” model of the world is wrong. So they stir up trouble on purpose and gleefully lie.

Just remember that Trump and all his consiglieres confidently told us over and over again that Kilmar Abrego Garcia was *never* coming back to the US, to get us to demobilize, give up on politics, and internalize the idea that everything is futile.

note that this completely inverts the public justification for the deportation scheme. they claim they’re deporting criminals, but they deported Kilmar without knowledge of a crime, and now that they supposedly found one they’re bringing him BACK.

These are straight up gestapo tactics from ICE. They’re going after Democrats trying to scare them or provoke a response to justify a further crackdown.

Yesterday, I met with CBP and ICE Homeland Security Investigations officials at the Sault Ste. Marie Port of Entry.
This small but mighty port does everything from processing thousands of crossings to port of entry services for Great Lakes cruise ships & international flights into Chippewa County.
