I really haven't had a good soul-cleansing cry since this all began- and I didn't today either- I just got tears in my eyes. It just felt really good.

This afternoon after my patrol shift at my kid's elementary school, the mood was light: kids were playing on the playground, people milled about the front of the building chatting and laughing.

Oh dang, I missed the awooo party.

And they didn't refer a single case of feds breaking the law to the county attorney.

This is why defunding the police is so important.

By the way, Democrats have now flipped 27 legislative seats in Trump 2.0.

Republicans are still stuck at zero.

Even in 2017-18, the GOP managed to flip a few. This time, just a goose egg, despite several good chances.

Emmanuel Damas, 56, died in ICE custody on Monday.

Damas came to the U.S. from Haiti seeking asylum. After six months in ICE custody—the last four at CoreCivic's Florence Correctional Center—he died from complications from a tooth infection.

A tooth infection.

abolish ICE is *literally* the moderate position

Absolutely not, not when HCMC is on the verge of closing.

Graves.

165 graves.

Each for a little girl killed by the Israeli-American strike that targeted a school on the first day of the Iran War.

Oh, Ken. WWWD?

We desperately need this statewide. I emailed my Rep.

This is great, how do we take this statewide?

This is why leaders have to lead and also you can’t just hope voters can figure things out. You have to tell them in clear unambiguous terms. Unfortunately the right is very good at this and the left is currently atrocious.

So happy to see this beautiful contrast from last week, he is radiating joy now. Go get that Oscar now!

Fuck you, Pete Hegseth. Don't ever show up in Minnesota again. War criminals aren't welcome here.

I've made them with cranberry cream cheese and green onion - delightful!

I've never finished a book and then immediately read it again until this one. Such a captivating story, with lush imagery. I would love to see this made into a movie.

if anyone has friends with huge followings who might be willing to flog this one, that would be amazing. it's going to take a lot to keep these kids in their homes.

Amazing 😍

Still can't get over we're playing soccer in February though.

I do not like this "ten toes down" saying. I get what it means but it just makes me think of toes and then I'm grossed out.

I believe it's this love that will ultimately save us.

I have to try and forcibly remind myself that it's two things at once - that we hate Trump and his cronies not just because it's fun to dunk on the mad king for clicks, but because we love the people he is hurting and our anger is on behalf of the vulnerable, which makes it sacred and honorable
