I deal with APD every day. As unhinged as they are under Keller, I shudder to think how terrifying they would be with whoever White would put in as chief.

That's wild. I never would have guessed that.

Do we think there's any evidence at all to back up the 1/6 claim?

Beyond the fact that 1/6 is an extreme claim, the number itself feels like a fairly obvious troll.

This. Everyone down to the person who pulled the trigger had a responsibility to refuse this obviously illegal order. One can argue degrees of responsibility depending on location in the chain of command, but they're all war criminals.

And yes, you interpreted correctly. It's just the 4 of us this year. Fuck tradition, we're just making something good that we rarely make, so it's still special.

And not at all an obvious pretext to pump up those deportation numbers by any means necessary.

I am saying that they are uniformed symbols and it absolutely sucks that neither MAGA nor those attacking them give a shit about the humans in the uniforms. Both sides see them as nothing but tools to an end, and undoubtedly both sides will make full use of those tools. Fuck them both.

Honestly, not as much older than Biden as I would have guessed.

To be fair, it doesn't really matter who did it or why, the administration was always going to find a reason tonuse this as justification for more NG.

Since when has reality gotten in the way of a good narrative. No evidence the people who shot Kirk or took shots at Trump were leftists, but that hasn't stopped MAGA from running with the story that they were as if it were gospel.

I have a lovely strawberry pineapple green tea currently brewing.
