Not ICE, but CBP.

ICE is terrible, but CBP is orders of magnitude worse. In many ways, abolishing or radically overhauling CBP is of greater urgency than ICE, but likely tougher to do.

One can argue that ~all of ICE's duties can be reallocated. Harder to say that with CBP.

The squint makes her look like someone else, and I think it’s Bette Midler

Bad Bunny condemns ICE during his #GRAMMYsΒ speech for Best MΓΊsica Urbana Album:

β€œBefore I say thanks to god, I’m going to say, ICE out. We’re not savages, we’re not animals, we are humans and we are Americans.”

I spend one day offline to take my kids to the zoo, and when I come back, Liam Ramos is home and everyone is saying Trump shit himself

Democrats in Congress need to immediately appoint an adhoc bicameral working group to organize civil society and the legal community to stop Trump's ongoing desecration of our national monuments and the Capital. This has gone too far. Congress must step up and fight.

read online that someone set-up a premium rate phone number where callers get charged $3.99/ min. then they posted flyers in their neighborhood that said "call this number to report illegal aliens," but the number just puts them on hold with music. so far, they've made $17,000

I joined my friend Greg and other cartoonists to draw something to welcome Liam Ramos home, but ~3800 children remain in ICE custody, including at least three students from Liam's school (and 25 parents). Join us at #Comics4Liam !

"About 500 seniors live at Sinai Residences in Boca Raton, Florida, including many Holocaust survivors. Recently, some of them asked if they could hide the building’s Haitian staff in their apartments."

This broke me.

You can test new tech ideas using the Seinfeld Test

Would the product eliminate the plot of an episode? (Google maps, cell phones, paypal, battery packs)

Good tech.

Would the product inspire new Seinfeld plots? (NFTs, AI chatbots, crypto currency, blindboxes, metaverse land sales)

Bad tech.

Jamelle is probably the most famous bean enthusiast on here, but if you put out a request for easy, healthy bean recipes, so many people will come running with ideas.

my hand holding 5 small whistles in cool color combos: a sweet bisexual, a northern lights, a lemon & lime, a pastel rainbow, and a flame colored one.

Okay, it took me three days to finally do this, BUT!

You can buy whistles from us now!

I stress again that getting the whistles free is the OBVIOUS OPTION but some folks want 1-5 Kit Rocha whistles instead of 100 whistles, or to support us. So. OK!
