This teenager saved his neighbor's dog from drowning in a freezing pond. This is Bernard. His family contacted emergency services right away, but high school senior Hugh Pinneo got to Bernard first. Hugh said he's "just glad I acted that day and saved the dog's life." We are too. 12/10 for all

Recall that months ago Kristi Noem said that ICE would be "all over" the Super Bowl. She implied they might arrest Bad Bunny.
They're nowhere in sight. Noem is silent.

So, I'm headed down to Anaheim to visit my partner's Aunt. She's nearing the end of her battle with Parkinson's Disease.
Besides the obvious attractions, any suggestions for things to do, places to eat in the greater Anaheim area? I think we're gonna need a pick-me-up or two.
Thanks in advance.

Happy to see my adopted home state is stepping up!
NEW: A federal judge in Oregon issued a sweeping rebuke of the Justice Department’s nationwide push to seize state voter rolls, ruling that the department can no longer be presumed to be acting in good faith and warning that its conduct threatens voters and states’ rights.
Federal judge rules DOJ can ‘no longer’ be trusted in voter roll crusade
The judge pointed to a letter from Bondi to Minnesota that tied federal immigration enforcement to demands for voter data as the smoking gun.

As a service industry veteran, this story also made my blood run cold. To arrest people who just served you a meal is a form of treachery I cannot comprehend.
I hope those agents starve in the afterlife.
I hope those agents starve in the afterlife.
One misdeed that haunts me involves ICE agents who ate at a small-town MN Mexican restaurant then returned at closing to detain the workers who had provided their meal. Every cell in my food-writer body revolts at the thought. To betray offered hospitality seems to my agnostic soul like a mortal sin

The longest January I remember is over.
At last. Even safe in my East End nest, I feel pummeled and bruised—in a spiritual way, which by no means compares to what my brethren in my late mother's birt...
