You come from survivors.

In ’95 I was a high school sophomore, and the Oasis album “What’s the Story Morning Glory?” was pretty much in everyone’s constant rotation. Still one of my favorite albums.

Sue, no deadline, right now. This is just for our ongoing essay pub. We've been focused largely on the poetry project the past year, but are looking to add some more regular or semi-regular writers over on the essay/op-ed side! Please submit something, if you feel like it!

Thank you, Bobson. Appreciate you!

Former FBI Field Office Chief David Sundberg on Kash Patel: I’m embarrassed for the FBI. The FBI I was in operated under a golden rule of not embarrassing the agency.

Denver authorizes police to protect anti-ICE protesters The Denver mayor signed an executive order instructing local police to take deescalating action if ICE uses excessive force.

“Federal agents are expected to follow local laws and public safety regulations. All law enforcement officers have a statutory obligation to intervene if they witness illegal or excessive force being used by any law enforcement officer, to include federal agents.”
- Denver Police Chief Ron Thomas

What I take from the State of the Union Almost two hours into tonight’s State of the Union, there’s nothing to give one hope or confidence in the future of our country.

“The one thing I can take from this spectacle, the only thing, is the urgency of the moment for all of us who believe in America. Every minute of this address reinforces the fact that we must act now if we hope to save the country from this petty would-be dictator.”

A Nashville comedian created a fake ICE deportation tip line. Neighbors, coworkers and even a kindergarten teacher called in—trying to get families deported.

Drew Harwell sits down with Sam Stein to discuss how a viral stunt became a window into America’s darkest impulses.

Thank you, Thomas.

More Rant Than Poem I used to laugh at their fixation on pedophilia Thought it was just a distraction instead of projection We hit rock bottom five years ago Asked the Democrats to clean up the messagain One year ago …

Great poem/rant, @bartbarkerpoet.bsky.social

Thank you, Ankarah. And yeah, probably a good policy you have there, re asking certain family members about politics…
