I really have no words for this anymore.

The priest at a Catholic church in Dedham defended his parish’s decision to replace nativity figurines of Jesus, Mary, and Joseph with a sign reading “ICE was here,” saying the gospel is clear about treating immigrants with respect. trib.al/Ob5ptDw

I don’t know when we finally hired staff that watch sports, but I support it!

As someone who has worked extensively in vetting, I have heard every permutation of this argument to explain away past actions and boy, it pretty much never works on me, but I have seen it work on plenty of other folks!

Look, I'm not a lawyer (and certainly not a JAG), but in what respect does shipwrecked survivors of a missile strike on a boat radioing for help constitute a "hostile act?" There's not even any combat going on - they got shot by a drone!

I think "financialize everything and create a tradable asset out of any difference in opinion" might be the worst thing I've ever read the competition is strong but it's a real contender

The % of immigrants as a part of the US pop is the same as it was when my family came over in the early 20th century. My Nana came over as a teenager working as a maid, and yet her kids died fighting fascism on DDay, her grandkids became doctors, and her great-grandkids ended up in the White House.

Pop star Sabrina Carpenter slams the White House for using “Juno” in an ICE arrest video: “This video is evil and disgusting. Do not ever involve me or my music to benefit your inhumane agenda.”

This episode and the one late on Thanksgiving evening (that was very clearly not written by him) really opens the door to questions about who has access to the President's social media logins, especially given that he, unlike basically any other president, actually uses social media to issue orders.

This is truly despicable, even for what I'm sure is a messaging bill.

Beep beep, here comes the bus.

"Color revolution"

NYC: ICE is staging at Centre and Howard St. Get down there if you can.

This is unhinged, unadulterated white nationalism that is so off-the-charts fascist not even David Duke would have said that in public.

This is so deeply at odds with the vision and history of America. Take pretty much any ethnic or racial group that are part of the American mosaic America today - they have all faced the same accusation. The moment these accusations are turned into policy are some of the most shameful in US history

Look, am I glad this article finally got written? Yes. But the amount of times the article takes a dig at President Biden (both by publishing full rants from Trump about him and also offhand shots from professors) is a bit glaring.

There's plenty I disagree with Nagy on, but on this we certainly agree. This is a disastrous decision by the Trump Administration. I have seen first hand how impressive the MWF and YALI alumni are, and how impactful they have been in their communities across all sectors.

This would be a massive, historic crime even if no one died — a rich guy is not permitted to arbitrarily close a government agency in a law-based society — but the massive body count turns it into an atrocity, the kind of thing we put people on trial for at The Hague.

Absolutely nailing it on this week's TEI. Thanks for saying this @nathanaclark.bsky.social 🎯

This cannot be a real quote, can it?

The U.S. has the leverage to help stop the RSF's atrocities in Sudan, RIGHT NOW. But to do that we have to use it. Today, Republicans blocked my effort to pass legislation to suspend arms sales to the UAE until we can verify they are no longer arming the genocidal RSF. Shameful.

I’m going to turn into the Joker.

Kind of hope Zelenskyy just responds with "So how's that whole Epstein thing going for you guys?"

If you don't have to spend time on the Other Site for work, it's easy to be unaware of the proliferation of conservative accounts that do this 24/7, to say nothing of conservative influencers flying to wherever CBP is doing raids that day to film more agitprop and pick fights with protesters

Having grown up in Western Mass (and lived in Boston), I don't think that particular attitude has changed much. Wouldn't recommend anyone test that, either.

Good statement from the US conference of Catholic Bishops

We're still doing Cheers segments during Patriots TNF games? The last episode of Cheers aired 32 years ago!

Did anyone really think the sexual predator President who used to party with Jeffrey Epstein was going to release the Epstein files?

When I was growing up, my parents used to tell me stories about how the brothers and nuns at their Catholic colleges would lead and organize mass civil rights and anti-war marches. It's time again.

Notably, this same Palm Beach house was the source of their falling out. The third bidder on the home was Mark Pulte, father of current sketchball FHSA Director Bill Pulte. A few months after they battled over the auction process, the Palm Beach police got a tip about Epstein's crimes...

hasn't been enough reporting on his creepy science funding, tbh.

Real sliding doors moment right here.

The New York financier?

So, I could be wrong, but is that first 2011 email them discussing whether or not Trump is the one who reported him to the cops, right? That’s what the “I’m 75% there” is in reference to, because they’re confused why he wasn’t charged or mentioned during the trial (because should have been)?

I've got nothing, folks.

Christian Gonzalez has really embraced New England/Boston. You love to see it

I have to give a lot of credit to Hochul here - this is exactly what she should be doing. This city and state have vast reserves of political, financial, and cultural power, and we should be using all of it to keep New Yorkers safe from the administration.

Today @TheNewYorker released our short documentary “Rovina’s Choice” online. It traces the ongoing effects of the sudden shutdown of US foreign aid through the story of one mother in Kenya as she seeks to save her daughter from sickness and starvation. 🎥 1/ www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

Bit of an odd framing here. It seems like Tisch acted appropriately (and that the Mayor-elect agrees with what she did).

remember this great new york post scoop from yesterday morning?

😎😎😎😎 GOOD THINGS CAN STILL HAPPEN 😎😎😎😎

The last month of the anti-Mamdani campaign was an absolutely shameful undertaking, an attempt to rip the city and Democratic coalition apart and I'm very happy to see it failed.

Trump: "Hear me, President Trump, when I say this: to get to any of us, you will have to get through all of us."

Folks, I've heard a lot (a LOT) of speeches in my life, and that's got to be one of the best I've ever heard. and yeah, what he said.
