Abolish ICE. Impeach and convict. Nothing less will be justice.

My dad, at 73 years old, just ran his third half-marathon in 2:26. I don't think I've ever clocked better than a 15-minute mile, and that man never dropped below a 12:30. I'm so proud of him.

They've zip-tied children in the dead of night. They've shot priests. They've deported Americans and lied about having done it. So no, there is no rehabilitating ICE. When this is over, that agency needs to be gone. Blank slate. Anything less is complicity with its return.

First thing on my feed was a 9/11 memorial post. It's been 24 years. Kids who weren't alive to remember are having their own kids. We've killed so many people, ours and whatever as "theirs" are, and not a single damn person feels safer than they did back then. "Never forget" my ass. Let me forget.

Happy Independence Day. Remember why we started this unwieldy, imperfect, irrepressible work-in-progress of a country.

If you're standing there with a baton in your hand, a tear gas grenade loaded, a mask hiding your face and an ICE patch on your shoulder, what you are doing is evil. I hope it haunts you. The only atonement is dismantling the entire damn agency.

It's become fashionable for even progressive politicians to diss the 'Abolish ICE' movement. I make the political and moral case for abolition in my latest for @GuardianUS, with receipts:

Going through my late grandfather's coin collection (read: hoard), and this man was utterly committed to collecting bicentennial quarters. I don't think he expected them to have any special value, he just thought it was important that we had survived 200 years as a nation. Food for thought.

Had the opportunity to hear Dr. Jane Goodall talk about her life, career, and ongoing conservation efforts at the Lyric Theater in Baltimore. She has an effortlessly holistic view of complex problems that we could all benefit from!
