In lieu of elaborate means-tested standards or onerous top-down management, my proposal is simple: no one who is more famous than Druski is allowed to be in TV commercials. Druski's fine, I have no quarrel with him. Puddy from Seinfeld is probably below Druski now, he can stay. Chris Pratt must go.

WOW. A federal judge says he's going to issue a Temporary Restraining Order requiring ICE to make changes at the Broadview facility in Chicago, a facility that until January was only for stays under 12 hours "absent exceptional circumstances," but has become, in Judge Gettleman's words, "a prison."
