Defund ICE (UPDATED 1/22) - SENATE VOTE THIS WEEK β­‘ 5 Calls Updates January 22, 2026: By a 220-207 vote, the House has passed H.R. 7147, the standalone DHS appropriations bill. Republican Rep. Massie (KY) voted …

Nothing I can say will ever impart my spineless Ohio senators with the slightest whiff of compassion or principle. I call them anyway, in the hopes it makes them nervous. 5calls.org/issue/dhs-bu...

I don’t know if a flood of calls at this moment asking for dissolution of DHS and abolishment, investigation, etc., of ICE and Noem will matter, but I made the calls - it’s easy to do, and it can’t be a flood without us.

Self-promotion feels weird given what the US is doing right now, but my health insurance premium *quintupled* in cost this year, so...

39. Ranch Supreme, the one dressing to end them all

...and that's it! Roughly $787 raised for World Central Kitchen(!) An auspicious start for the new year? Perhaps. Will I spend today reflecting on how lucky I am that I didn't have to share ranches 41-50, which started to get weird? Definitely.

33. Craft ranch - not to be confused with Kraft Ranch, this ultra sticky dressing is perfect when you need a mayo-based glue substitute

28. Do you ever wish there was a ranch that could talk to you, gently making you question your preconceived notions? Good luck with that. This ranch only makes a wordless guttural scream.
