Dear Hollywood,

PLEASE make a movie in which Jason Statham fights ICE.

According to the car wash owner, agents arrested employees before they could obtain their documentation from their work lockers. So many were likely here legally.

Here's hoping this article on Zac boasting about how he ruined some immigrants' lives follows him around for a very long time.

if you didn't follow the VA governor race you didn't know that Earle-Sears ran like a billion anti-trans campaign ads and Spanberger didn't flinch or pull a Newsom.

going all-in against trans people is a losing move, especially when the federal government has made harming and killing us a priority.

And I know things like this are happening around the country. But we can’t become numb to the horror and profound injustice of it. We can’t.

We can’t become numb to the violence of our government. We can’t.

If we become numb to their inhumanity, we risk our humanity too. 5/5

The feds attacked a car wash, abducted people who have legal status, and their boss can’t find them to HELP them because he has no idea where they are.

This is insane.

These are our neighbors. 4/

There are no words for Sudan-- the "blood bath" conclusion marks the complete failure of the international community. This is a horrific situation & like so many other wars, I doubt there will be justice for these survivors & their families.

The one thing about white Republicans you can always count on is that they love being victims. Lordy, they LOVE it. Especially the men.

Can someone explain to me why Mike Johnson keeps doing press conferences given he has shut down the House indefinitely and it doesn't exist anymore as far as he's concerned? (also why reporters keep showing up and asking him questions like that's not the case when he won't answer any of them anyway)

A USDA memo shows the Trump regime rejected using $5 billion in contingency funds to extend food aid during the shutdown. We’re in the shutdown because Republicans don't want to extend Obamacare subsidies, which help millions of Americans have affordable healthcare.

Seven years ago today, a man with hate in his heart and a gun in his hand entered a Pittsburgh synagogue on a Shabbat morning. He shot and killed 11 people, wounded 6 more, and traumatized the Pittsburgh community — and the entirety of the American Jewish community.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

My high-risk buddy was recently in the hospital. A healthcare worker there told him "this latest version of COVID isn't airborne" so he didn't have to worry about catching it from his roommate, who had tested positive.

This is why we can't have nice things.

It’s wild how so many people are gaslit into believing declining health and being sick all the time is just ‘normal’ in your 30s. No. This is what repeated COVID infections do.

Reports are coming in that federal agents have tear-gassed protesters in Lakeview, Chicago, a neighborhood that’s roughly 75% white.

It means the regime has started to show its cards...
