Abolish ICE.

There’s no reforming it.

There’s no compromise.

There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.

LOVE this, Arlene!

Sounds like a win-win to me

Almost certainly assumed one of their own had parked it there, which they are of course allowed to get away with.

More than 2,500 Starbucks workers are on strike. They’re demanding dignity: fair pay, safe conditions, a contract that respects their labor.

It’s time their voices are heard at the same volume as CEOs earning millions.

The NYT is awful and getting worse

Red Trump-style graphic with images of Donald Trump and Andrew Cuomo. At the top it says, "I'm going to pick [Cuomo]." - Donald Trump, 60 Minutes Interview, 11-2-25 Then beneath it TRUMP ENDORSES CUOMO

Congratulations, Andrew Cuomo!

I know how hard you worked for this.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

What the fuck do you mean I got a longer prison sentence than Diddy

I've never heard him, but as a former Chicagoan, I'd be disappointed if there wasn't a distinct Chicago accent.

Russ Vought on X: $2.1 billion in Chicago infrastructure projects—specifically the Red Line Extension and the Red and Purple Modernization Project—have been put on hold to ensure funding is not flowing via race-based contracting. More info to come soon from @USDOT.

I immediately noticed the city air as soon as I come back from anywhere else.

No greater movie tune

I never thought I'd see John J. McCloy and Jimmy Kimmel mentioned in the same article, but such are the strange times in which we live. Anyway, as far as NYT think pieces go, I'd say this is well above average—thanks for sharing!

The bible tells me so!

Satanic mission accomplished, congratulations Hearty!

This tracker is excellent, thanks for sharing.

Turns out it's a lot easier to turn it all into state media when there are like 5 media companies instead 5,000.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say.

This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand.

All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

WARNER: Do you accept the fact that 1 million Americans died from covid?

RFK Jr: I don't know how many died

W: You're the secretary of health and human services. You don't have any idea how many Americans died from covid?

RFK Jr: I don't think anybody knows that

W: How can you be that ignorant?

I hadn't realized there was a 19-year gap between the original and the re-release as a duet with Kim Wilde—I love both versions.

All in the Family: Farrell's Bar and Grill - BKMAG There was a time before gentrifiers made it all the way to Ditmas Park that Irish and Italian gangs, with names like the Shamrock Boys and South Brooklyn Boys, warred around Prospect Park’s southwest ...

There's a much more obscure fact about Shirley MacLaine that (mostly) only people in my neighborhood know: she broke the gender barrier at a local Irish cop bar:

It's a fun fact, no question

Love it!

Awesome photo

Tipping the scales toward autocracy A geographer's perspective of modern gerrymandering

Gerrymandering isn’t just a legal or political crisis—it’s a fundamentally geographical one. As a geographer, I know that every line on a map carries meaning.
