A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like RenΓ©e Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.

I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

4 panel comic

Panel 1: 
Red Guy looking way way too happy yells β€œHey Guys! Is Die Hard a Christmas movie?”
Blue Guy next to him calmly says β€œShhh”

Panel 2: 
Blue Guy tenderly puts his arms around Red Guy and says β€œYou don’t have to do this”

Panel 3: 
Blue Guy still holds Red Guy tightly and repeats β€œYou don’t have to do this every year”. Red Guy begins to break.

Panel 4: 
Red Guy dissolves into Blue Guy’s embrace, sobbing. He finally feels the weight of Christmas Discourse lifting from his shoulders. He is finally free.

Hulk Hogan’s legacy isn’t complicated Professional wrestling star's career is no match for his racism

When you are a racist that is your legacy above anything else you will ever do. Hull Hogan is no different. Here’s what I wrote about him:

So you're out on Marner? Zegras isn't Marner but for the price you could have Zegras as whatever you want to pay for a top left D. Zegras should at least produce as much as Kane.

Republicans want you to forget they’re ripping health care away from over 16 million people while Trump wages a new endless war against Iran.

That’s Republican leadership for you.

A graphic titled "Most common jobs in federal government" presents data on the federal civilian workforce by occupational group as of March 2024. It lists the top 10 most common federal occupations, with each category represented by purple human-shaped icons illustrating the proportion of the workforce in that role. The breakdown is as follows:

Medical, hospital, dental, and public health – 16% of the federal workforce
General administration, clerical, and office services – 15%
Investigation – 9%
Engineering and architecture – 6%
Legal and kindred – 6%
Accounting and budget – 5%
Social science, psychology, and welfare – 5%
Business and industry – 5%
Miscellaneous occupations – 4%
Information technology – 4%
At the bottom, the source is cited as the U.S. Office of Personnel Management, with a note clarifying that the occupational groups are limited to the top 10 most common federal government jobs. The Federal Unionists Network (FUN) logo appears in the lower right corner.

We'll say it again because certain people need to hear it: pay for federal workers accounts for just 4.3% of the budget.

If the federal government were to fire every single worker, it would only reduce government spending by less than 5%.

What DOGE is doing is just cruelty.
