I feel like the DHS read Doctorow’s “Little Brother” and said, “yeah, we ARE the baddies.”

I know it's hard to track all the threats to democracy out there right now, but this is at the top of the list.

We’re airing a new campaign ad, starting tomorrow.

Here it is:

WOW on Pretti's denial of medical treatment

"I informed the ICE agents that I am a physician, and I asked to
assess the victim.

At first, the ICE agents wouldn't let me through. ... But none of the ICE agents who were near the victim were performing CPR, ... None of the agents were helping him."

I was taught that the passive voice was a no-no in HIGH SCHOOL newspaper. “An ICE agent shot a protestor dead today during a struggle with federal agents in Minneapolis.” FTFY, @nytimes.com

A Google search of “hos long to die in the sea”

BREAKING: Hegseth’s search history revealed

So it turns out... the US air travel system was incredibly, deeply dependent on federal funding to just run day-to-day all this time, to the benefit of private airline shareholders, when everyone thinks that state-run trains are leeching off the government. Weird!

I remember gawking over the sample new @mbta.com Red Line car at Government Center in 2018. 7 years and a move out of Boston later, I FINALLY got to ride one yesterday and it was AMAZING 🤩 Definitely top ten experiences of the year.

What are you getting dad for Father's Day besides a working fire extinguisher in the kitchen.

“AT&T to acquire Lumen (formerly CenturyLink)”
(formerly Qwest)

Isn’t history fun?

On the roof.

😳 but also 🤩 (for the science)

This feels like it could _easily_ be a Spooky Lakes video.

Hey, so, just thinking:
- USAID was heavily involved in South Africa and helped black S. Africans overcome decades of violent oppression under apartheid
- Afrikaners and others violently subjugated blacks in S. Africa until 1994
- Elon Musk is S. African

Yeah, you’re right; just a coincidence.

Listening to Billy Bragg tonight and this hit really hard.

“Freedom is merely privilege extended unless enjoyed by one and all.”

YAY LIAM!

(And November and Roz)

fml it’s only been 95 days.

Honest question: at what point is a judge going to say “the US government cannot be trusted to respect the rights of those in its custody” and halt ALL deportations until they are validated by a judge? Is that even a possibility? It’s not perfect, but it might be better.

Shopping for EVs in the US is infuriating. It’s a process of finding a super cool option that’s not huge and is significantly cheaper than other options and then finding out they don’t sell it here.

Lawfare has a bot for it! @trumplitigation.bots.law

We decided to watch “School of Rock” last night because it has “Minecraft Steve in it” (I know…It is what it is) and I decided to google a bit and, yall, the little singer girl just got married to the big security guard boy /in real life/. She’s a OBGYN sonographer and he’s a music industry lawyer.

She’s giving 💀

I just imagine GEOFF saying

“soy GEOFF.”

Look, let’s be real. The only reason I’m buying the Oblivion remaster is because I’ve run out of Skyrim remasters to play.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Biblical scholars now believe that if Jesus had covered up his gang tattoos, he might’ve avoided crucifixion.

Direct File is SO GOOD. It is the only tax prep software that - get this - actually explains what the numbers mean and where they came from.
