It's hard to overstate how ell-organized the portland march that got gassed was... organizers made the crowd promise to be peaceful, said the march would slow in front of the ICE building but not stop, that we would stick to one chant (ICE Out). They did absolutely everything right and got gassed.

For some reason, very few people these days will stand up and say it, but: the US federal bureaucracy is one of the great wonders of the world, staffed with incredibly diligent people who do their jobs well and care deeply. Trump's destruction of the federal apparaus was a historic crime.

The Purged
Donald Trumpâs destruction of the civil service is a tragedy not just for the roughly 300,000 workers who have been discarded, but for an entire nation.

Tulane wore decal-less helmets as a tribute to the team's uniform combination in its first game after Hurricane of Katrina 20 years ago. But there was one key element missing: white jerseys. Northwestern denied the request. Head coach Jon Sumrall took exception to that gesture after the game.
