Exactly right.
Bovino's leaving? Great, get Noem to resign.
Noem resigns? Great, defund and dismantle ICE.
Go after Stephen Miller too. Bring charges against ICE thugs at the state and local level. Lawsuits. New state laws restricting them.
Every possible angle.

My anxiety is off the charts today; a combination of personal and national/international concerns. It's overcast and gloomy, triggering my SAD, which doesn't help. So I'm going to disconnect and find refuge, and I will try to catch up with you all later when I can cope. Practice self-care!!

As always, excellent analysis.
Today I wrote about a good man summarily executed on the streets by Republican death squads, and how, given the inevitable alternatives, even tyrants should hope for a people's liberation from tyranny. www.the-reframe.com/the-shovel-n...

if she’s a no on the funding bill this is DOA in the Senate

Minneapolis Police Chief O'Hara: "The video speaks for itself. We have identified this person - 37-year-old, white male, resident of the city. The only interaction that we are aware of with law enforcement has been for traffic tickets and we believe he is a lawfully gun owner with a permit to carry"

A prank Hooters sign in Mill Valley sparked outrage, confusion, and memes after the town lost its Whole Foods
Mill Valley survived the loss of Whole Foods, but a surprise Hooters sign pushed the town to the brink. Petitions, zoning theories, frantic reporting, and one brutal question: was this real?

Well, folks. Everything is bad & promo never seems appropriate, but BALD-FACED LIAR is on sale on Kindle. Only $2.49 in the US if you need some dark humor and light murder. AND WHO DOESN’T???

Taking good news where I can get it: 25 years on, the 2nd edition of Munchkin has eliminated the gender binary from the game. No more "Curse: Sex Change": the only card completely removed. For that alone, I will buy a copy.

some context for that “look at me doing edgy homophobia” Gavin Newsom clip is that Newsom rose to political power in San Francisco during the AIDS crisis. there’s a reason every current or former Californian you’ve ever met feels about Gavin Newsom the way Captain Ahab feels about the whale

It's not that hard. There's even a toggle in your settings to help you remember. Adding alt text to your images helps the visually impaired, but also those who have muted certain words/phrases. (Also those too uncool to know on sight who the person in your image is.)
