My documents - for when ICE conducts an illegal "citizen check" and wants to see my "papers". . .

Just so everyone knows: Judicial warrant. Note to medical facilities: ICE may not enter your facility past reception without one, they may not enter patient care areas (including treatment rooms) and they are not allowed access to protected medical records.

Oregon? Kind of expected them to step up, otherwise pretty much as expected.

And there it is. All your fault, Minnesota, that there will be no midterm elections....

Jimi!

Overhead in the restroom of the specialty medical clinic. I was in a stall at the time. 'Can you believe this is happening in Minneapolis?!' 'Right?!! That's where Mary and Rhoda lived!!' I didn't know if I should cheer or cry.

Spineless. Colorado Gov. Jared Polis (D) said he’s considering clemency for Tina Peters, the former election official serving a nine-year state prison sentence for her role in a 2021 voting system breach. This comes after months of escalating retaliation from Trump against the state of Colorado.

On the road to Ventura, fruit label view, to pick up $10,878 worth of medication (big bag of samples) courtesy of my darling rheumatologist.

Insider tip: If a medical test, treatment or medication is denied by your insurance carrier, look very carefully at the rationale for the denial, then look up the coverage policy for the particular service that was denied. If the reason given for denial appears spurious, then file an appeal.

So, Iranian protesters are patriots and are being encouraged by POTUS to keep protesting and take over their institutions. Meanwhile, here in the US he calls left leaning protesters terrorists, antifa, radical left, etc and he sics the military or his ICE goons on them. Got it 🙄

No comment.

Frey: "I think the initial impetus to come to MN was to arrest & deport a bunch of Somali people. They got here & realized the Somali people that would be deported are all citizens. Then they turned their ire toward our Latino community & others. These are communities that make Mpls a better place."

Rep. Angie Craig: "We were told because this facility is being funding by the 'Big Beautiful Bill,' not the congressional appropriations act, that we would not be allowed to enter the facility. That's complete nonsense ... I informed them they were violating the law. They said they didn't care."

It's nearly impossible to keep track of the daily transformation of our Republic to a fascist dictatorship. Actions taken against Mark Kelly, if allowed, will intimidate career officers and destroy any mandate for the military to adhere to the rule of law. www.thebulwark.com/p/why-mark-k...

Because what do we want with science?

Hmmm. Washington National Opera Is Leaving the Kennedy Center www.nytimes.com/2026/01/09/a...

Frey: "This notion of inflammatory comments -- c'mon guys. I dropped an F bomb, they killed someone. Which one of those is more inflammatory? I'm going with the killing somebody."

Little bird Brokenbeak brought a pal to dinner. Anthropomorphize much?

uh why did FBI delete this

As we begin 2026, a new development threatens to further undermine voting by mail. A recent rule change at the U.S. Postal Service means that postmarks will no longer reflect the date a piece of mail was deposited at a local post office. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/how-...

Nancy Mace: “I was hit by the domestic terrorist’s car too. Frankly, I’m extremely fortunate to be alive.”

🚨BREAKING: A federal judge Thursday ruled that John Sarcone, President Donald Trump’s temporary pick as acting U.S. attorney for NDNY, has been serving unlawfully in his post for months. The decision makes Sarcone the fifth Trump-appointed acting U.S. attorney deemed illegitimate by federal courts.

The EPA announced it would set standards for perchlorate, a toxic rocket fuel component found in millions of people’s drinking water that’s linked to serious health effects. The agency is regulating the chemical only because a federal court ordered it to do so in a case brought by us.

Small glimmer. Jackie and Shadow are back on their nest in Big Bear, California.

Repost, because it's a real question.

Make it viral.

This is insane. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

Jimi and his pal enjoy the sun.

So if California could have a special election to redraw congressional districts, why can't we have one to vote on secession?

We really must leave www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

The changes announced Monday are effective immediately.

Jimi wore himself out playing with his blue mousie.

What is wrong with these people?!

Himes: "I was delighted to hear that Tom Cotton, chairmen of the Senate Intel Committee, has been in regular contact with the admin. I've had zero outreach and no D I'm aware of has. So apparently we're now in a world where the legal obligation to keep Congress informed only applies to your party."

Both little Brokenbeaks showed up bright and early and they brought friends with them.

"This is a president of action" Marco Rubio

Three million people live in Caracas, five million in the metro area. It's one of the densest cities in South America. Remember this in the morning when they try to spin this as anything other than a cold-blooded attack on a major civilian center.

And another blinding flash of the obvious.
