A year after border agent's killing, 7 Zizians fight criminal charges in 3 states Seven people with ties to the group known as Zizians remain jailed in three states, but so far none of their criminal cases have gone to trial.

don't forget the ginger beard. There is a certain kind of progressive who believes that a man in a ginger beard is physically incapable of being bad at anything

hello and welcome to the political genius exam. here is question one. which is a more compelling message:

- the president is sending armies to occupy cities and kidnap and kill people and your town could be next
- a meal at the cheesecake factory that previously cost $100 now costs $104.9

I’m sure this dude is fine. He does have a Nazi tattoo. And says women whine about sexual assault in the military. And that black people are stupid. But gosh darn it he says he’s a progressive, and since he’s white and male, who can really say what’s in a person’s heart.

Progressive Candidate Has Dropped Out Of ME Senate Race Not Platner. Daira Smith-Rodriguez

Platner's dismissive comments about sexual assault in the military were so disgusting that a candidate who had experienced assault in the service dropped out to endorse Mills rather than risk Platner getting into the senate. www.everythingishorrible.net/p/progressiv...

Pleading with people to understand the scope of this.

It won’t just be for immigrants.

They will use these camps to detain anyone they deem as an β€œother”.

The disabled. The homeless. Trans people. Political dissidents.

Your tax dollars will be spent incarcerating people without due process.

You cannot reform this.
Burn ICE to the ground, piss on the ashes, and salt the earth.
Then build a professional agency with standards and accountability to accomplish the critical mission they were supposed to be doing.

Okay this whole Wikipedia page is fascinating. At skim some of these regions had water that was green as often it was blue, but the idea that β€œterms for brown, purple, pink, orange, and gray will not emerge in a language until the language has made a distinction between green and blue” is a mindfuck

"the elite of the antebellum South were degenerate gamblers who financed their lifestyles with industrialized rape and would kill you for pointing this out" is a straightforwardly accurate statement

A painting of Scottish bluebell flowers with a background of blue, purple and green patches with splashes of gold.
Bluebells emerge in ancient woodlands to flower and leaf from April onwards. Millions of bulbs may exist in one bluebell wood, causing the blue carpets we so keenly associate with spring.
An original art work, please note that the frame is not included.
Watercolour and mixed media painting on acid free watercolour paper.
Approximately 6x8"(15.24 by 20.32 cm) will fit an 8x6" standard frame.

The Titanic chef who survived the sinking by getting completely wasted on booze is such a fascinating story because half the time ppl are like "he actually survived 2 hrs in water that killed ppl in 10 min wow" no he was probably in there for 2 min & it felt like 2 hrs because he was fully shitfaced

Restore Customs and the Secret Service to the Treasury.

Restore TSA and the Coast Guard to the Dept. of Transportation.

Restore FEMA to its original independent status - hell, make it a whole Department, we're going to need it.

Restore all the small random agencies to Justice.

Be done with it.

It is rare for something shot in Manchester to feel absolutely Hooklandian, but Small Prophets is a rare thing - an esoteric TV comedy that grows the heart. Mackenzie Crook is a genius. Small Prophets is television treasure.

Did you see this today?

Anti #ICE protesters carried a MASSIVE U.S.
Constitution through the streets of Minneapolis.
Not a flag.
Not a slogan.
The Constitution.
Thousands marched, demanding accountability and asking whether federal enforcement is aligning with the rights written on those pages.
