WOW. The lead plaintiff is a Latino man who's been here legally for 24 years. He was grabbed off the street by plainclothes federal agents who didn't even ASK about his status. He was detained overnight and only released once a supervisor realized he had been illegally arrested.

ICE brutally detains U.S. citizen just for filming—knocking her unconscious. "Agents took her to a side alley, beat her up, then called an ambulance," witness said. "Then they kidnapped her from the hospital—without a formal discharge—and took her to Downtown LA Detention Center."

I thought this was an Onion joke about our current Fuhrer but apparently it’s real and about the previous Fuhrer. Those who do not learn from history are condemned to repeat it.

Excellent melodramatic thriller, notable for having an older single creative woman protagonist — and Jack Palance as the lover with a bazillion red flags! 😂

Shout out to everyone only now learning that "Albert Einstein was reclusive at the end of his career, shunning public engagements." Really meant, "For the last *20 years* of his career, Einstein opposed US racism by only speaking publicly at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).

In Jan, the Office of Personnel Management told providers to stop covering gender-affirming care for federal employees & dependents under 19 in 2026. This loss in coverage is now expanded to all ages & will affect ~17,000 transgender employees, plus an unknown number of dependents.

Fascinating casting, Russell seems rather out of place, and Montgomery is particularly revolting in this film 😂— and there’s a very creepy remake to compare it to!

At a profound level, MAGA's immigration policies are simply a way to transfer taxpayer dollars to private contractors whose job is to terrorize the American people. Fundamentally, leaders are using our own money to destroy our democracy.
