There are also millions of Americans who live abroad, myself included, who are required to re-register each year we want to vote. Currently we do this by mail or email. The SAVE Act could require us to do this in person, effectively disenfranchising us.

Whether you agree with the original purpose of ICE or not, the original purpose is now irrelevant. It has transformed into an entity with the sole purpose of subjugating the populace. It must be dismantled.

They shot Renee Good in the face.
They kidnapped Liam Ramos.
They just executed a man on the street.

Unmask them. Prosecute them. No more secret police.

ICE just KILLED a U.S. citizen in broad daylight.
Alabama’s struggling families shouldn’t be forced to foot the bill for an agency that is committing what would be considered war crimes in a war zoneβ€”against its own citizens.

Rob Reiner: I'm going to make a coming of age drama, a fantasy adventure story, a romantic comedy, a psychological horror and then a courtroom drama.

Us: Across your entire career?

Reiner: In a 6 year period.

Us: That sounds-

Reiner: -Each one will be arguably the best movie in that genre.

It’s time for soft secession How blue states can use their economic clout to stand up to Trump’s agendaβ€”starting with California.

β€œCalifornia, and the country, cannot await the outcome of the midterms to repel Trump’s siege on democracy. More drastic action is required.”

Every year on Memorial Day, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring.

They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died.

France also gave us this land as American soil.

Trump Declares A Trade War On Uninhabited Islands, US Military, And Economic Logic There’s a fundamental problem with Donald Trump’s new trade policy: it fails a test that actual 5th graders can pass. I know this because I tried explaining his β€œLiberation Day&#8…

I wrote a bunch of words trying to explain how economically incomprehensible the tariff stuff is. It explains how a 5th grader understands basic econ better than Trump and his economic advisors.

The worst thing about press/tv/media knuckling under like beaten dogs is that there is a massive potential market for content that tells Trump or Musk to go fuck themselves.

You want clicks? Engagement? Views?

Step the fuck up, put on your big boy pants, and do your fucking job. You will make $.
