I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

With all due respect, Mr. Schmidt foisted an unfit Sarah Palin to run with a supremely fit public servant and hero. Maybe the Dan Quayle effect worked and helped lead us to our present state?
A message to the US Senate: America is watching. Patel, Gabbard, and RFK are more than just unfit. They are a danger to our country, and to our people's safety. Use your vote to protect the people you represent. History will remember your choice.

Replace “coffee” with “cocktails” and you have my attention
My biggest pet peeve is when someone says “can you have coffee (meeting, dinner, happy hour, etc) this week?” and I say, “sure, let me know what days you are available!” and they say “you tell me what works best for you.” No. No more coffee. I’m done.

If only “timeless” meant it was never recorded or released. That song is putrid…..
on “Wonderful Christmastime,” Sir Paul McCartney set out to make a timeless christmas classic and also to figure out what every button on his synthesizer did, and he absolutely succeeded at one of those things

I give thanks today, and everyday, for the beautiful motherfucker who invented the feature that allows you to pause your coffee maker to get an early cup. I hope that person is on a remote island and someone else brings him or her their coffee every goddamn morning.
