Bad Bunny, MPLS, and the ‘neighborism’ saving America | Will Bunch Newsletter Plus, the word of the year for 2026 is the f-bomb.

How did Bad Bunny utter not one word about Trump or authoritarianism at the Super Bowl yet deliver the most power message in 60 years of the game?

Behind Benito's 13-minute love song for the same "neighborism" that's saving Minneapolis from ICE raids

My new column www.inquirer.com/columnists/a...

In Order to Stop the Radical Democrats from Rigging the Election, We Will Be Rigging the Election “President Trump called in a new interview for the Republican Party to ‘nationalize’ voting in the United States, an aggressive rhetorical step tha...

"The Republican Party is the only thing standing between you and tyranny. We’re the ones who can save you from those fearmongering emergency weather alerts, those tyrannical flu shots, and those woke puppets living on Sesame Street."

“If the Minnesota resistance has an overarching ideology,” Serwer wrote, “you could call it ‘neighborism’ — a commitment to protecting the people around you, no matter who they are or where they came from.”

what an astonishing book

Watercolour from a few decades ago, with a mixture of garden flowers plus some decorative gourds. I don't remember who bought this one but it was quite large, probably on an imperial sheet of watercolour paper.

One of my larger flower watercolours, done without body colour and featuring my most painted green glass jug (which is very old and leaking slightly from the handle. I'll get it to make a guest appearance in a new painting this year.

A lot of Dems are going to take Bovino and Noem being fired as the finish line, and it's very important to make it clear to them that it is a starting line

This isn't about "training issues." The murderer who executed Renee Good has been with ICE for 10 years, and according to DHS, the murderer who executed Alex Pretti has been there for 8 years.

These aren't "new recruits," or officers that can be "retrained." ICE can't be reformed. Abolish ICE.

i am going to make a post that will keep track on how many loaves of banana bread i make. only made 1 loaf so far this year. needless to say i am glad i'm going home in 3 days because it's banana bread time. i need this

The killing of Alex Pretti and the grotesque lying was an overreach by the administration. They've paid a price and had to pull back a bit. But it's when there's some disarray that the democratic opposition needs to intensify the offensive, and turn a marginal tactical success into a major victory.

When I was six I hid inside a stage between our school gym and the lunchroom during recess. I had no friends, so I read books. I then started doing this all the time, one I read was Clive Barker “Thief of Always”. I did this until I got in trouble. It’s a fond memory. #booksky #memories

A refreshed Villa Beer, originally designed by Josef Frank and Oskar Wlach, is about to open to the public, following a meticulous restoration of the Viennese modernist house www.wallpaper.com/architecture...

Bovino is just the patsy - a noxious and odious fall guy. Stephen Miller is the architect and prime mover of the whole thing. Everything they do is at his direction - often after his threats. As long as he runs policy in the WH, nothing will change no matter how many Bovinos come and go.

It's not quite the most pressing issue at the moment, but the American people absolutely have a right to know the names of the federal officials who shot and killed a man peacefully protesting, who was on his knees, prone in the street when they shot him in the back.

Hooray it happened, I can now rest

A Call Is Rising for Nations to Boycott the Trump World Cup As marauding state agents fill US streets, a leading German soccer official says countries should consider what was once unthinkable: skipping the 2026 World Cup.

I’ve seen bits and pieces of his Davos tragedy.

It’s like someone took their demented grandfather to open mic night at the comedy club and just let him riff.

How damn embarrassing.

The budget deal in Congress will give ICE another $10 BILLION.

Absolutely not.

ICE is out of control. We must stop this rogue agency’s dangerous abuses of power, not bankroll it.

Socialist NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani brings in $642K in campaign donations His campaign estimated at least $300,000 will be matched by the city’s 8:1 public financing program, bringing in an additional $2.4 million.

As everything seems permanently terrible in the world, I remember that a year ago, hardly anybody outside NYC knew Mamdani's name and the Daily News said he "has been viewed by many as a longshot bid for mayor due to his far-left positioning."

I feel like we’re living in a dystopian novel so dystopian that even if Huxley, Orwell and Bradbury had collaborated on a book, the three of them together couldn’t have dreamt this shit up.

being a conservative grifter like this is crazy because how do you completely flip on one of your most central supposed beliefs like this. like this is absurd. does this not embarrassing them at all

📢 Power to the People: We Did Not Consent to This War on American Soil Americans did not consent to war on our own soil. A people-powered call to reject authoritarian violence, defend democracy, and demand accountability.

NBA game in London. Someone screams “Leave Greenland alone!” during US national anthem. The crowd reacts in support.

This is a moderate position and every single democrat including and especially @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and @schumer.senate.gov should be shouting it from the rooftops.

The good news? We’re winning universal childcare faster than anyone expected. The bad news? Ms. Rachel and I have to find some new song inspiration…

EXACTLY. Wake the fuck up already.

Why is nobody talking about how the Epstein files are now 30 days past due?

Release the Epstein files.
