Truly amazing physicality. The stick up the butt, the facial tics, the voice….

Would be cool if anyone with a megaphone made it. Alas…

These ICE abductions feel kind of like the bad old Abu Ghraib/extraordinary rendition days. Except even worse cause we can all see if on our phones.

To quote Omar El Akkad, One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This

I've said it dozens of times. City government should put up live cams around the ICE facilities, the downtown area, and have them broadcast live feed, 24/7, on the city's website so people can go look for themselves whenever they wish.

Do not underestimate how quickly frogs can reproduce

Don't tempt me with a good time

Thune: "If the Democrats had won the majority, they probably would've tried to nuke the filibuster. And then you'd have four new senators from Puerto Rico and DC, you'd have a packed Supreme Court, you'd have abortion on demand ... "

Will be hilarious if Comey gets his indictment tossed because Halligan isn’t really the USA and kills the James indictment at the same time

Tell me you've never managed a large org before without saying so.

I don't know how many employees there are at CBS News, but even if there are only 1,000, a half-hour meeting with each would take a quarter if that's all you did every day, 8 hours/day, 5 days/wk.

Fun to see someone use disburse when they meant disperse. I always see the opposite

Darth I don’t know if red pandas fly, but if they do and you find yourself in T4 of JFK at the Capital One Lounge they have a cheese monger experience that is free. You must have 45 minutes though.

This is what happens when all you do is give locker room interviews

I mean, at least they’re more useful than synthetic CDOs

Thanks! Will do. So much better. I have contemplated engaging on the NextDoor sewer but can’t bring myself to

Agree with Anil. Textural details that are super obvious and/or boring to you will likely be fascinating to them

Just unconscionably bad

This Program Rescued Army Recruiting

This is some extremely dystopian shit www.nytimes.com/2025/10/04/u...

It needs to be an absolute requirement for Dem presidential candidates to commit to disbanding ICE, CBP, and HSI, firing every single employee, and prosecuting those who broke the law.

They can create new agencies for protecting the border and enforcing immigration law. But these ones have to go

Given the traditional spelling of Hizzoner and Mssr. Mamdani’s first name, there has to be some clever combo of the two. Where’s the NY Post punner when you need them?

More like Kavanaugh Kidnappings

This is obviously a last ditch effort to sink Mamdani, but it’s obviously gonna help him

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuccccckkkkkk!

this is the third time Donald Trump has shut down the government while his party controls both houses of Congress

I mean, maybe it’s simply self-selection bias. They have demonstrated, by saying no, that they DO have a line.

So agree. A related thought I keep having though I can’t fully form it is that there are a bunch of right wingers who didn’t go MAGA who can see things much more clearly. I don’t think that’s coincidental, but I can’t quite put my finger on why it would be.

Superb post. Worthy of a full read

I thought racism was usually directed at orangies like @jortsthecat.bsky.social ?
