A reminder that illegal border crossings have been plummeting. In December 2024 they were lower than they were when Trump left office last time.
This is largely b/c about a year ago, Mexico devoted more resources to halting migrants before they reached the US border (turns out, diplomacy matters!)

McConnell putting the good of the nation over party, long after the point when it could have made a difference for him to do so, is just the cherry on top of this shit sundae

And, in case youβve forgotten from the first go-round, two other points never to forget:
1. Trump and his aides often lie.
2. Trump and his appointees often screw things up.

Oh, sweet, new, young WICKED fans: no, the cast of The Wizard of Oz will *not* be making a guest appearance in part 2. Rigor mortis is a very hard thing to rise above!

The biggest failure of the WICKED movie is that we only see this FABULOUS pair of pants on Michelle Yeohβs Morrible for a quick second.

It was realistically acted and she, as expected, made the score wrap brilliantly around her voice. Shout out to (I assume) Andy Einhorn for the well-placed key changes mid song.

Still thinking about Audraβs Mama Rose two days later. If you go expecting her voice to miraculously have a different timbre than itβs had for the years sheβs graced the stage, youβre not getting that. But her Rose was so grounded and had absolute reality-defying tunnel vision.

Waiting to hear Madame Morrible has been announced press secretary, but Iβm not sure sheβd even take the job.
