I will state loudly that my account is an anti-ICE account.

I am not afraid of you. I post anonymously for other reasons related to my personal life but I am not afraid of Homeland Security.

Yes, let's keep it that way! I can remember when DHS didn't exist. It can not exist again!

I thought I couldn't get angrier than I am now.

I was wrong.

I also feel so hopeful because of people like Bri.

There are a lot of people who are going to complain about being unfairly vilified by that halftime show and it's because they know in their hearts they're on Team Hate.

I got it and was floored. Great article if you didn't get it and a great reminder if you did get it.

Make Puerto Rico a state or let them go - whichever they prefer. But the status quo needs to end.
If you didn’t catch the significance of the exploding transformers in Bad Bunny’s halftime show, I gotcha. Here’s one of a bunch of pieces I wrote from/on Puerto Rico about the crisis—and Trump’s role in it. slate.com/news-and-pol...

That Coinbase Superbowl ad is the most desperate thing I've ever seen a company do. Absolute edge-of-collapse behavior.

Defund ICE, it's literally the only moral stance at this point.

I will not vote for candidates who don't demonstrate by their actions that they will dismantle ICE.

Not reform, not change, no retraining. Shutter it and hold these ghouls, including spokespeople, accountable!

As an educator, I can't imagine how wrenching this was. This poor mother! And the trauma the kids faced.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Finally muted the CBS and Bari Weiss. I have not watched news from CBS for decades. I just don't care what the newly hired people think.
