I acknowledge the part of black history where we stopped going there

my biggest complaint with Maslow’s hierarchy of needs is the lack of a ‘thick cut hot pastrami sandwich’ tier

Liam and all the kids in those horrible facilities need to go home. Still upset these places weren't shut down years ago and even more angry now.

This not the suit from The Mask?

Is Deborah familiar with *where* Jesus flipped tables?

I may have a stroke. Someone said protests don’t belong in church and it took every ounce of self-censure within me not to say “Deborah you are literally a Protestant.” A PROTESTant. I assume they think Luther was nailing Bed, Bath, & Beyond coupons to the door.

Beyond this one post, I am not wasting time on “I don’t like him, but” This is not the time to give an inch. This is an emergency. This is not reporter gets wh press credential vindictively pulled This is different and not the time for even mild fucking-around

Opposition party doing so good that they’re gonna pass a law that exists already and tell us it’s a win 🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

One reason you can't just tinker with ICE/CBP is the whole thing is facially illegitimate. The intent is rotten. It's run by a white supremacist maniac and will continue producing white supremacist maniac results

Congressman has never heard of the existing constitution of his country

Being mean or even disruptive is not grounds for summary execution; and if you can't wrap your head around that, you should not be allowed to use firearms.

I realize this may not be common knowledge, but the fact that a prior bill gave ICE funding does not mean that Congress does not have the power to change that prior bill. Prior Congresses can't bind the current Congress.

As far as I know, Tom Suozzi here still does not have a primary challenger in his district (NY-3 on Long Island). The filing deadline is April 6 for the primary on June 23, and if there's a remotely progressive town council member or PTA president in that district, this is the time to make a move.

I want one...

An ICE agent covered head-to-toe in body cams, just thousands of tiny cameras, beating the shit out of an old woman. That's the bipartisan dream

This is a speech designed by someone who thinks you are stupid. He’s explicitly promising to keep the *recently tripled* budget of the DHS gestapo if there are “reforms” that, behind closed doors, their lawyers admit are unenforceable, irrelevant, and even harmful.

Hot Skeletons in your Area, Pt.VII

Seven Senate Democrats voted to confirm Kristi Noem: John Fetterman (Pa.), Maggie Hassan (N.H.), Tim Kaine (Va.), Andy Kim (N.J.), Gary Peters (Mich.), Jeanne Shaheen (N.H.), and Elissa Slotkin (Mich.). Some of the worst Democrats we have--Kim excepted. They all owe the American people an apology.

Liam himself is five goddamned years old and should be at home with an adult he trusts right now no matter who his parents are. It would not matter if they were literal criminal masterminds, Liam Ramos is a baby and babies do not belong in prison.

(Dude suddenly stops pushing his broom across the floor of the Death Star) Does this look like a big laser to anyone else

It really doesn't matter if Bovino goes, Homan goes, Noem goes, Miller goes, or anyone else. Fish rots from the head. So long as Trump has power and congressional Republicans back his policies, nothing meaningful changes. Don't fall for the okey-doke.

if bovino is out and conservatives are turning on noem then there is a real opportunity to demand that miller resign too.

thank you for considering my important contribution to Dragon Ball discourse

Frieza is a trans icon his first form is small and fem, then in his second and third forms he transitions to being huge and masc, and then rather than detransition he RE-transitions into a sleek slippery little agender final form all while retaining his trademark catty old mean girl personality

That really was his Lil ass huh

brass solidarity band performing “stand by me” in the streets of whittier next to alex pretti’s memorial. the crowd started chanting “the people united will never be defeated” so they incorporated it into the song. i love minneapolis

You're going to find this hard to reckon, but there were adults who spent the last decade arguing the biggest threats to speech in America were nine sophomores at Oberlin.

Any company that hires this man in the future must be boycotted into oblivion.

gentle reminder from the 6 year old. a keeper.

The altnps account is the 13th most followed account on Bluesky and has more followers than every single news outlet other than the NYT, NPR and Meidas Touch on here. They actively spread misinformation and exploit gullible old people for cash. Accounts this unethical do not deserve to exist.

I just want to say that 1) AltWatcher is doing the lord's work and 2) the altnps account, in my opinion, needs to be outright banned - and I don't say that merely because I loathe it, but because it's unbelievably unhealthy for this fake, plagiarizing, qanon-lite account to have this influence.

This glorious Queen.

In case anyone was wondering how it’s going over on American Girl doll Instagram

In October, ICE grabbed Maher Tarabishi. He was a 24/7 caregiver for his disabled son Wael. At the time of Maher’s detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Wael’s caregiver put his life at risk. Wael died on Friday at age 30. ICE caused his death. They didn’t get to say goodbye.

The @wsj.com in an editorial wrote today: "...Pretti attempted, foolishly, to assist a woman who had been pepper-sprayed by agents" According to the WSJ, it's "foolish" for a nurse to assist a person in medical distress. Incredible www.wsj.com/opinion/time... (gift link)

It appears that this legend owns a little bookstore — and you can order books from him instead of Bezos. Link in next post.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

By who? Who shot the person dead? You saw the video. We all know a federal agent shot a man dead who was prone on the ground. Also, it's not "according to officials." It's according to verified video seen with your eyes. Not saying what anyone can obviously see with their eyes is a form of lying.

Here's a go fund me for the neighbor that was snatched, then released by ICE, but they are keeping his kids in custody. If you could spread this around or donate at all please do so. www.gofundme.com/f/a-father-f...

I think the South Americans should sue Patagonia for using Patagonia as a commercial brand. It could cause confusion.

I would like to gently request that AI pharmacy bots stop trying to kill my mother

inescapable conclusion is we have no laws, just cops

The I in ICE stands for immigration. So you know ICE is broken beyond repair when they’re profiling NATIVE people. I've heard from local tribal leaders from Northern Michigan to Minneapolis working to protect their communities. Their message? ICE needs to GTFO.
