This is the FCC Chairman, who is ostensibly a non-partisan industry regulator, openly bragging about conducting a political purge of the media.

I keep seeing people ask about the 25th Amendment. Guys. His entire Cabinet is walking around in shoes that don’t fit because they’re scared to take them off. The 25th is never happening.

Here's what DHS doesn't want you to know: Working for ICE is one of the safest jobs in America — and last year was the second-safest year for the agency on record. And the doxxing? It hasn't actually happened even once. The masks are justified by a lie. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/ice-s-mask...

Without naming your job, tell me something you say over and over again at work. “It’s on the drawings.”

Here is a collection of sworn testimonies from detainees being held in ICE custody. Until reading these testimonies, I wasn't fully aware of what is happening. Please read them yourself. We need to know this. We need to understand the consequences of ICE/CBP arrests. assets.aclu.org/live/uploads...

The people of Minnesota did that. Not Schumer and Jeffries, not Walz and Frey, not the standard-bearers of decorum. The People.

We don‘t know what this upstanding man’s plans were Saturday. Maybe he was headed to meet a friend for breakfast and this unfolded in front of him. This fascism is awful. It will interrupt your daily life even if it hasn’t yet. Get to know your neighbors and organize to support the less privileged.

in case you're curious about how angry Minnesota is about ICE, it was -20 today

The 6-month-old that DHS is tweeting about here lived in the neighborhood and the baby’s father was just trying to evacuate his family after federal agents had shot someone.

Good morning readers; Kyiv remains in Ukrainian hands. In the towns near Ukraine's frontline, Russian FPV drones hunt civilians, a new tactic called a "human safari". Yana, who lives in Kherson, regularly sees these drones and the damage they cause.

Dumbass

Purdue to the rescue of IU student newspaper, whose institution was attempting censorship. Details in alt!

Neutral doesn’t mean bland. Tile shopping with a client.

ICE is torturing a chaplain to a Cincinnati’s children’s hospital who is in this country legally. If sent back to his country of origin (Egypt) he will likely be executed. This is our government doing the torturing.

Summertime relaxing on the Cape.

Reminder: applying for asylum is NOT a criminal act, even if you enter with only the clothes on your back.

Feels kinda important to point out that if non-citizens are required to carry proof of legal status, then citizens do too by default. This is absolutely insane.

Adam McKay is drafting a scene about this already for his next big movie on a major financial crash

Timeline break from the world. I mailed my mom her Mother’s Day flowers and card in one today. Watercolor with pen and ink highlights.

“Department of Government Efficiency.”

"Christian love is not a concentric expansion of interests that little by little extend to other persons and groups," the pope writes. NPR reports

This is horrible to post, but I may as well post it. We are essentially shutting down research operations in my group, which is focused on treatments for pediatric brain cancer. I’m a well funded investigator, and there’s no choice. Science can’t function without the stability of NIH

Dark times acknowledged. Weird people are dismantling the systems of our government. Calling my senators and congressman. Tonight, finding serenity in the beauty of nature.

This week the aviation collision was breaking news, but takeover of the US Treasury and firing of thousands of FBI has not interrupted anything, not seen as an emergency. The dissolution of the US government is underway. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/musk-s-jun...

Keep looking for the light.

Postcard watercolor. The marsh in the winter.
