Other law enforcement agencies put officers involved in shootings on desk duty or leave pending review. There are decades-worth of precedents why that is mandatory now. ICE/CBP/DHS agents should not be exempted from accountability.

Of course he did. They're constantly acting on their petty feelings then, when there are serious repercussions, realizing they did something stupid and having to backtrack.

That is one Good Boy™.

A fluffy white/gray tabby cat (Bella) sitting on a window ledge with a cream/gray cat (Luna) sitting above her on a desk observing her. A white-haired woman in a dark blue sweater sits to their right at the desk, looking at the two of them.

Such a sophisticated setup! My monitoring system is much more primitive...

I can appreciate and support Newsom's mocking of Trump using his own outrageous social media style and still not support him as a nominee for the Presidency.

And there are likely people who believe the money is coming from the "trillions of $" we're raking in from tariffs.

So prescient its kind of scary.

Store owner on the Zoccalo to a member of the Nightwatch after Sheridan disrupts their attempt to arrest him for displaying a poster criticizing President Clark: "Don't you have a Bund meeting to attend?"

This always makes me think of the pro-forced-birth people: "What if the child you abort was going to grow up to cure cancer?"

Well, I ask them "What if the kid you deported was going to cure cancer, but can't now because they won't be able to get the education they'd need?"

It doesn't break your heart. Don't pretend. If it did... If you were a Christian... you would *find* a way. Instead, you've all ready decided they won't qualify.

Cruelty. Is. The. Point.

As always, they're brave behind their little screens, but not so brave as to own their beliefs by proudly displaying their faces.

Glad the courts have mostly retained their sanity. I don't ever want to hear another conservative express concern for the well-being of children. They point fingers at Trans people and drag queens, but the real threat to children is themselves.

In other words "if you don't want to be beaten to a pulp by masked racist thugs, here's where you can turn yourself in. Then you'll only be beaten a little and may not kidnap your kids for out cabal of child sexual predators."

Two female cats relaxing on a comforter on our bed. One is a gray tiger with large patches of white and the other is an orange tabby/tortie mix, also with large patches of white.

Last night we were "accosted" by the Cat Distribution System™ and now we have two beautiful girls to fill the holes left by Nick and Humphrey.

(Names pending until they choose to to divulge them.)

I hear Satan has started construction on a new circle...

Look how respectful and professional they are. So proud they represent the best of our law enforcement!

Yeah. I generally try to do this, especially for people with varying levels of mental health and self-esteem issues. But it gets harder when your own start to get in the way.

(I love you, buddy. I started to say "it goes without saying", but realized that would've been missing the whole point.)

Aww, thank you!

We're looking exclusively for bonded pairs (age and gender don't matter much), so if any come up, please send them. 🐈

Kitty face!

I'm missing our boys right now. They used to love sitting on the blanket in front of the window by my desk. The snow seem to fascinate them.

We're hoping the Cat Distribution System will take pity on us soon!

Awesome face! 10/10, would be judged again!

Trump administration plans to deport 40 Iranians days after mass killings in Iran Two of the deportees are gay and terrified of returning to a country where homosexuality is punishable by death, their lawyer says.

Deporting people to Iran right now, as body bags line the street, is an immoral, inhumane, and unjust act. That ICE is still considering carrying out the flight this weekend is a sign of an agency and an administration totally divorced from basic human rights. www.ms.now/news/trump-d...

So much for the "sanctity of life". Of course, we also did this to Jews who fled the Natsies on the St. Louis in the late-30s and virtually all of them eventually died in labor camps or were gassed.

Hey, don't fascist and you won't be called one. Easy peasy.

I love how Musk said we should make Starfleet Academy a real thing, not understanding that Starfleet only exists because Earth became a "woke" borderless, homogenous world that welcomed trade and alliances with aliens.

"Benevolent Dictator" is an oxymoron. There will always be groups who are "the reason for your problems", regardless of whether the regime is right or left.

One of the best films ever made. Chaplin's speech at the end will always be relevant.

The party of law and order literally just wrote themselves a memo that says they don't have to follow the 4th Amendment.

That's right, ICE intends to perform illegal search and seizures without a warrant.

Add that to the list with "we had to beat up the police on Jan 6 to defend our democracy".

If the actor hadn't been Japanese, it would certainly have been even worse.

(And a correction. It "Gedde", not "Kedde".)

Where are all the "He's not a dictator!" people now? Hello? Bueller?

I'm sure MAGA believes they would fully support it. Just like Jesus!

Setting a policy doesn't make it law, but I'm sure the MAGA armchair lawyers will pop in soon to set me right.
