ICE’s Assault on a Minnesota School District
Liam Ramos, whose photo became a symbol of Operation Metro Surge, is one of several students in Columbia Heights who are now in federal custody.
“It’s worse since Bovino got kicked out … The number of abductions, the number of agents in our community, has not decreased. If anything, it feels retaliatory now.”

I believe they also lifted his body up, probably looking for the gun.

The Human Fund.
- George Costanza, also right about how easy it is to look like you're doing a good thing.

I thought, briefly, that Jonathan Ross would not have shot Renee Good if her child was in the car. That is clearly not true. My bad.

The only battle in the arctic any American should be concerned about is the one going on in Minneapolis right now.

I wonder if they're hiring people who aren't citizens yet, with the promise of fast-tracking their citizenship, and a pinky swear not to deport their own family members who may be here illegally.

Trump is absolutely calling Machado a loser behind her back.

I think Machado considers it a sacrifice for a greater good. But, paradoxically, because she gave it to him, he will dismiss her as a loser. She needed to string him along until she got what she wanted.

It would be really funny if a rumor started circulating that she substituted the real one for a fake.
It would be funnier if she actually did.

I think Vance believed most of the country, like his online bubble, would side with Ross.
B/c he has no real political skills, Vance lacks the ability to consider the broader electorate, and what his reaction to Renee Good's murder might do to his 2028 chances.

Was she trying to leave or was she about to intentionally hit him? Debate on this point needs to cease.
That's why he shot her: because she was leaving.
