I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work.

I don’t let bullies win.

Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

as if the interviewer viewed a man who could not deal with having to kill people on a regular basis and small and cowardly. I find it appalling. 2/2

Maybe it's just me, but the journalist seems to view the poor man with contempt. Describing him as a "queer, timid little elfin man" speaking with a "pathetic, almost pleading note" in his voice 1/2

We were pleasantly surprised. Holly Hunter's captain is so great, the kids are great, the Commander Thok is the most badass of Jem'Hadar-Klingon hybrids to ever badass. But I hope it slows down a little--it's hard keeping track of all everyone.

Thanks for sharing this. I haven't really enjoyed Trek since DS9, although Strange New Worlds has its moments. This looks really fun though.

It's the 3rd of January 1939, your name is professor James Smith and you are staring at a drawing of a fish. It's not a regular fish. It is a completely impossible fish.

Could be oatmeal? It's a different color. But then, why white rice and not brown rice? I thought we were supposed to eat whole grains? And why kidney beans when black beans are the best beans?

If you look very, very closely, next to the lone peanut is a giant bowl of rice with a tiny amount of kidney beans on top.

My public safety team is working to gather information on an ICE related shooting this morning.

We will share information as we learn more. In the meantime, I ask folks to remain calm.

The entire executive branch needs to be in prison. Congress let the president get away with actual murder. How many world leaders will they let him kidnap before acting?

At least they were studying it. These days MAHA would tell us that our humours are unbalanced and we should get more sunlight

Throwback to the Xmas when I spoofed mobile game ads too accurately, and no one clicked on the video.

My husband always does this, and I just look at him until him he sighs and says, "I know." It works for Congress, the Constitution, the Supreme Court . . .

Immigration Agents Have Often Grabbed and Mistreated Citizens, Congressional Investigators Find Prompted by ProPublica’s reporting, an investigation by Senate Democrats documented the experiences of nearly two dozen citizens wrongly detained by immigration agents, contradicting the Trump adminis...

One citizen said that federal agents in Idaho pointed guns at her children, ages 6 and 8, and dragged her 14-year-old daughter out of a truck and zip-tied her.

The mother told investigators that an agent threatened to β€œfucking blow your head off.”
