Obama: They never miss a chance to scapegoat minorities and D.E.I. For every problem under the sun. You got a flat tire? D.E.I.. Wife mad at you? D.E.I..

Cool optics bro

Just introduced to him via this series of Taskmaster! Looking forward to seeking out some of his work.

note how the messaging has shifting from "we're targeting criminals" to "we're deporting everyone"

this graphic is everything. this is why people overestimate the prevalence of violent crime and terrorism and support punitive police measures.

they are quite literally distorting reality in order to keep you scared of the wrong things.

It's so damn good!

the tone deafness is beyond parody

Well played, and more caffeine needed here.

Never do an interview with Tara Palmeri.

Maybe this is just a me thing, but I think I'd instinctively ask "What the fuck are you doing?" if someone's hand went to the back of my head like that & it wasn't my wife.

I'm willing to scout for random rollercoasters in Iowa fields* to bring to the Defector Bake Off finale.

Early planning documents reviewed by WIRED describe a statewide transport grid designed for steady detainee transfers across Texas, with ICE estimating each trip to average 100 miles. Every county would have its own small, around-the-clock team of contractors collecting immigrants from local authorities deputized by ICE. It is a subtle transfer of the physical custody process into the hands of a private security firm—authorized to carry firearms and perform transport duties “in any and all local, county, state, and ICE locations.”

The next time Emma Thompson is wrong will be the first time Emma Thompson is wrong.

Honestly, a lot of people are embarrassing themselves with terminology and layout errors over the White House, and it's not new. So, seeing how I worked on the White House complex for years, let me straighten out a bit of it for you all. 🧵

1) Thank you for sharing this.

2) The internet was a mistake. For all of us.

Walmart both receives tens of millions of dollars of SNAP funds and creates millions of SNAP recipients with their unlivable wages. They spend millions in lobbying.

It'll be fun to see how they react to the White House choosing to defund the program.
