wtf is he even talking about? I mean AI can be wrong but approximately 7K law enforcement in Oregon vs. 14K (less with firings, but still not yet half that) in the FBI. This guy just pulls stuff out of his ass and as a result is not surprisingly full of 💩

In some ways Miller is more dangerous because he's a true believer.

If Bad Bunny is a 🖕to MAGA then MAGA can only be racist.

“Laurie Eckman, 84, said she and her husband Richard Eckman, also 84 and a Vietnam war veteran, were rushed by federal officers “for no apparent reason.” She said her husband was leaning on his walker and wearing his Vietnam veterans cap as he was pushed to the ground.”

Mom can you pick me up people are anthropomorphizing linear algebra again

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.”

Lk 17, 5-10, this Sunday.
After receiving a request from the Apostles for greater faith, the Lord moves quickly to a rather strict teaching about what it means to be an obedient servant.
This obedience unto service is perhaps where our faith is most often tested.

So much good is done in ordinary ways.

I read what the computer lady was saying, and I’m aghast. She doesn’t identify anything fundamentally different between human beings and the electrons people arrange on a hard disk or computer screen.

It doesn’t have the same rhetorical flair as “fascism”.

There can be no keener revelation of a society’s soul than the way in which it treats its’ children. -Nelson Mandela

The Democratic establishment waffles about Trump’s police state while the NFL is happy to book the most anti-ICE superstar

To the extent the administration tries to justify its killings in the Caribbean by claiming there's an armed conflict with Tren de Aragua (lol), here is the IC's April assessment.

A crucial plot point

Editor’s Note | Mississippi’s Evil Past Still Haunts Us News Editor Ashton Pittman writes about how the response to college student Trey Reed’s death illustrates how Mississippi’s past haunts its present.

Your administration zip-tied children.

What’s a true shithole country? One that zip-ties children’s hands and puts them in cages. One that sends people to a mega prison in El Salvador without due process. One where Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents wear face masks to conceal their identities. And so on...

The fact that an insurance lawyer with no prosecutorial experience is handling the Comey case confirms what you are saying

For political alliances, basically my only question is “are you peacefully opposed to Trump’s authoritarian project?” A yes to that and we’re on the same side; we can become opponents and argue about other things at a later TBD date.

I am the hawk and there’s blood on my feathers
But time is still running
They soon will be dry
