How to record ICE:
1) Record from a safe distance. DO NOT INTERVENE.
2) Put the DATE, TIME, & LOCATION on the video.
3) Ask for NAMES & BIRTHDAYS
4) CONTEXT, how many people were taken? What happened? How?
5) If possible, document vehicles used and agents, even if masked.

The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city.
This is not a joke. This is not normal.
Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

RFK Jr: It's gonna be the biggest infusion of federal dollar into rural healthcare in American history
BERNIE SANDERS: Yeah. You know why? Because you're cutting $150b for rural hospitals, you're putting $50b back. That's not an infusion. That's a loss of $100b.

The irony of Trump trying to usurp control over the BLS, Federal Reserve, the tariff power of Congress, and even private corporations is that he'll have no one else to blame when the economy crumbles.
His hubris will be his undoing.

A thing I really need people to keep in mind: 15% tariffs are high, historically speaking. 10% tariffs are high.
The average effective tariff rate before this term was just over 2%. Anything double-digits is high!

As I've said frequently, it's all right to acknowledge some work was important to you, and also, that the person who created it is a real shitheel. If the latter means you can't hang with the work anymore, that's fine. I have a list of people whose work I'll maybe come back to once they're dead.

How do you handle loving the work of an actor, artist, musician, etc when you find out they're truly horrible people? Not just "meh", but the fucknuckle end of the spectrum.
I have some stuff I love, but I find it hard to make peace with that now.
