You know how this became utterly predictable and inevitable? When absolutely none of the people responsible for the previous thousand family separations were punished in any way
A 6-year-old boy is missing after ICE arrested him and his dad in NYC last week and shipped them off to separate facilities. www.thecity.nyc/2025/12/02/i... @thecity.nyc @gwynnefitz.bsky.social

you would think this would be a daily huge story, the fact that the president has visible dementia. just a thing a reporter could write about
Trump: "I took my physical. I got all As. Everything. But they said to me, 'would you like to take a cognitive test?' I said, 'Is it hard?' They said, 'yes.' I said, 'Well, I'm a very smart person. Who was the last president to take one?' 'No president has ever agreed to take one' ... I aced it."

I'll buy new phones more often if y'all make the process of buying and activating a new phone less excruciating.
Last time I had to buy a new phone I was stuck in a phone store for three hours next to a guy who wanted a line-item veto on his whole damn phone plan.
