What makes ICE so bold?
ICE surround judge's car threatening to smash windows—then arrest his high school intern.
Agents handcuff teenager to detain him—until judge loudly demands they check ID to confirm they had wrong person.
Court security noticed masked men sneaking pictures of the boy —so the judge tried to help.

FART WALK.
Feeling gassy after Thanksgiving? Take a fart walk.
Light exercise after a big meal can help. Whatever you do, resist the urge to lie down.

So much for due process.
We're gonna need a truth and reconciliation commission and Nuremberg style trials to reckon with all of this evil, and any Dem candidate for office who shies away from a full reckoning in the name of "moving forward as a nation" can get well and truly fucked
I feel much safer today knowing that we deported a Babson College student back to a country where she hasn't lived since childhood.
She wasn't even flying internationally. She was flying to Texas.

I only watch CBS for sports and I'm always amazed at these copaganda franchises that have somehow spawned six different shows with twelve seasons each. And all of them called "NCIS: Duluth" or "Ambulance Firemen Marshals" or some shit.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone. At our house dinners progressing. The turkey is juicy and the boy is asking already for more. I told him he had to clean his plate if he wanted a piece of pie
He said no to PI as ..

I won the argument and we rested the turkey.
I did have to explain to my son that didn't mean we tucked it in bed for a nap.

An 18yo US citizen, surrounded by eight masked, armed agents of the state, taken into custody, not read his rights, not offered a chance to contact a lawyer, proof of citizenship ignored, handcuffed so tightly he later required medical attention.
Profoundly, profoundly anti-American shit.
