Abolish ICE is the floor, not the ceiling. You can't reform something which is completely broken and corrupt. You need to tear it down. Democrats not on board with this aren't your allies. They will betray you and your communities in the future.

Democrats have offered cussing and scolding after the killing of Renee Good and Alex Pretti in Minneapolis. We need a real plan of attack, now. interc.pt/4racvJd

Did they think they’d be greeted as liberators?? I think it’s social media brain rot on the right, especially on Twitter where trolls & bots have flooded the space. I think some of these guys thought this was a populist movement & not white supremacy & fascism.

Abolish ICE is not enough. Stern words for Greg Bovino or Kristi Noem is not enough. We need prosecutions and trials. Anything short of this position fails to address the gravity of this moment.

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum. Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum. Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum. ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

Huge

Uber has been surging all day & I could’ve been doing $15 2 mile rides around campus all day, but no, I had to be responsible…

Snow!

Ms. Teschmacher keeping my seat warm.

Did you ever think you’d be living in a time where several masked men could tackle a woman or grab a child, or beat someone & all that would happen is that everyone would just record it & not intervene?

Watching Starfleet Academy & I can definitely see why some don’t like it. It begins w/ a female protagonist who is haunted by giving a harsh sentence to a mother w/ a hungry child.

On Twitter, that MN church protest is the right’s new 9/11.

AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.

the thing about “ICE needs training” is that Jonathan Ross was a ten year DHS vet and a firearms instructor he’s the kind of guy they get training from the whole institution is rotten, throw it out

I’m technically late Gen X, being born late October in ’79. Here is what I’ve witnessed. Challenger explosion. Police brutality/Rodney King OKC bombing ‘96 Olympic bombing Columbine 9/11 Iraq War Great Recession Sandy Hook Police brutality/BLM Gaza Genocide Fascism ICE I’m so tired.

I’m old enough to have actually been in malls just like this one in 1996. Damn, now I want to go to the mall. youtube.com/watch?v=4LDl...

When I launched my campaign, I said I wanted to do politics differently… and we’re actually doing it. Thank you to Jessica Washington and @theintercept.com for covering the most exciting and rewarding part of this campaign: theintercept.com/2025/12/26/k...

Another dozen or so authors could request a correction like this. "In Covid's Wake" egregiously misrepresents research and ignores the scientific consensus throughout. Embarrassing that it's being praised by credible outlets.

Ahem

What could possibly go wrong?

Twitter/X is just pure rage bait in my algorithm.

millennial borat be like "my partners"

Been reconnecting with Toaster Strudels lately. I got the cream cheese & strawberry variety. So good. This time I air fry them at 400° flipping every minute until I like the color. I eat them as an occasional dessert 10/10 highly recommend

If it were a hog, they’d still be out there & any hog farmers out here will back me up on this.

Pro tip for Uber & Lyft passengers: NEVER message your driver & tell them to hurry up. We will cancel. We might even wait until we’re almost there to cancel. Taking those rides is a lose-lose to us. We either become the reason you were late or the reason you were almost late.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

Bracing for the admiring remembrances of this evil piece of shit.

A firefighter rescues a portrait from the historic Kelton House in Columbus, Ohio. 3 explosions and a fire severely damaged the 1852 house, which was a stop on the Underground Railroad.

@steveshives.bsky.social Confession: I’ve watched TNG 3X over, Voyager & Enterprise at least 2X, but only 2 seasons of TOS & up through season 6 of DS9

Oh Bari Weiss is just Ms Rachel’s Wario

I’m old now.

Private Dancer’s parking lot was packed. Columbus fellas, if you’re in Private Dancer on a Wednesday night… you may have an issue.

posting from heaven now. the wifi is pretty good but it's got the aesthetics of a modern mcdonald's, which kinda sucks.

Picking up riders at lost lands & my cell service was nonexistent. I ended up wandering the rideshare pickup lot asking ppl if they have a ride yet. It’s the closest I’ve ever been to being a street walker.

Trans rights are human rights.

@steveshives.bsky.social well well well… looks like someone’s theory about avoiding the beep chair was proven right.

Superfans ruin every fandom. They become gatekeepers & they enforce unrealistic standards on the brand that turns ppl away. Star Wars is the best example… but also religion. Fundamentalists are just religion superfans. Meanwhile, spiritual ppl just want gay friends & bacon… & a social safety net.

No cheating. Your last saved celebrity photo is your therapist. Who is it? What a nightmare…

Now this is messaging. Not my constituents, not the people of Chicago, he said “MY PEOPLE.” Very effective and moving.

Pritzker: To the members of the press who are assembled here today and listening across the country, I am asking for your courage to tell it like it is. This is not a time to pretend here that there are two sides to this story.

Please update style books to use the term, “exile” Sending someone to a completely different country on a completely different continent is exile.

It should be said that Jillian Michaels absolutely exuded evil energy on Biggest Loser but she was bullying fat people so it was ok
