Tut, tut, thou art all ice, thy kindness freezes.

Excruciatingly frustrating to live in this timeline.

I keep seeing people ask about the 25th Amendment.

Guys. His entire Cabinet is walking around in shoes that don’t fit because they’re scared to take them off.

The 25th is never happening.

I need your help finding 3 walls for 10x10ft murals this fall all about the most charismatic bugs in the city.

Each mural must be in a different neighborhood, so we have to cast this net as wide as possible.

Please help us spread the word!

ICYMI: The US is currently holding three times as many people in immigrant detention as were detained in the Nazi concentration camp system in spring 1939 — six years into the Third Reich, and just before the start of World War II.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

White. Hot. Rage.

The Republican position now appears to be that you have a constitutional right to openly carry a gun in public, unless you do so while expressing a view that the government dislikes, in which case the secret police can shoot you to death on the spot.

Just called Senators Chris Coons and Lisa Blunt Rochester. Got teary and shaky but left my message . DEFUND DISBAND ICE.

ICE is now responsible for 66% of the homicides in Minneapolis this year.

No one can be watching this Davos speech and reach any conclusion but that the President of the United States is mentally disturbed and that something is deeply wrong with him. This is both embarrassing and extremely dangerous.

Richard Warnica: I spent the week in Minnesota. The only thing I’m sure of now is that more people are going to die As confrontations between ICE and protestors and activists grow more common, the tension only rises.

"If you want to investigate fraud, bring an accountant,” Stancil, a Democratic activist and education policy adviser told me as we drove around ... The ICE agents in Minnesota don’t look like accountants. They look like soldiers. And you don’t bring soldiers unless you want to fight a war."

Reading this book I was struck by the similarities between ICE and its current violent, dehumanizing aporoach to slave catchers and their activities after the passage of the Fugitive Slave Act.

It’s genuinely wild that the United States spent decades building an elaborate rules-based international order which de facto cemented its permanent status as the dominant global hegemon, sustained by ideology rather than might, and now is just blowing it all up for literally no reason

Ken Starr, immediately after being fired for his role in the coverup of sexual abuse at Baylor: I should reach out to convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein

this happened! this is a thing that happened!

For folks (and journalists) who want to search the Oversight Committee email texts, I made a database for searching the 20k text files:

My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

Like I dunno, maybe the reason it took a lady to break open the story of all the men protecting the dude trafficking underage girls is because the male journos were all emailing him making jokes about it?

Never have I blocked an account so fast

Yes please!
