To all those who get offended by calls to abolish ICE: A lot of government agencies have come and gone over the years. ICE (as well as CBP) have only existed since 2003. Before ICE, the organization that did some of what ICE is SUPPOSED to do was the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS).

He shouldn't demolish it but the Kennedy Center already *is* in the style of a dictator palace which just goes to show, once again, that Trump style is destruction and giant naming rights. Just put up a gold scaffold and slap TRUMP on it.

Men aren’t born with a propensity to commit acts of sexual violence. It is socialized behavior, often learned through abuse itself. Take fraternities and hazing as one example. The slightly older students beat the younger ones and the cycle continues year after year. Sports teams, armies, the same.

I'm not being facetious. Epstein was apparently giving talking points to the people pushing anti trans rhetoric in the UK.

Good god. We've spent a decade with the British media - including the BBC - claiming that the 'gender critical' movement wanted to 'protect women and girls'. And it turns out Jeffrey Epstein was funding part of it.

I need people to understand that it’s not just Epstein, it’s the entire rape culture that existed before and after him at every socioeconomic level. That’s why Epstein, who I’ve never thought was particularly smart or interesting, was able to pull this all off—he recognized how abuse functions

In many of the first generation of modern concentration camp systems (near the turn of the twentieth century), the vast majority of deaths were caused by disease and malnutrition. Most of the victims were women and children.

No need to imagine. The country incarcerates children as young as 9 years old daily in youth prisons and jails. Those children are routinely sexually and physically assaulted and also emotionally tortured. They are fed terrible food and given barely any education. This country has done this for yrs.

I just got tear gassed along with thousands of union members, many of whom had their families with them. Federal agents at the ICE facility tear gassed children. We must abolish ICE, DHS, and we must have prosecutions. I expect to see enforcement of our city code prohibiting the use of tear gas.

The arrest of Don Lemon is insulting in a moment when the public and Epstein survivors are still waiting on 99% of the Epstein files—now more than 40 days past the legal deadline. This isn’t about accountability. What it is, plainly, is a warning shot to journalists.

Bovino's resignation is not a minor defeat for the administration. It is proof that they cannot escalate indefinitely, that they are still constrained by opposition activism and public opinion. These constraints will make it very hard for them to consolidate an authoritarian regime. They're losing.

While glad to see Bovino humbled, I really don’t have any higher opinion of Homan—a cruel, cold, corrupt, calculating bureaucrat who’s devoted more of his career to mass deportation than almost anyone. He’s the architect of child separation.
