Carolina with 7 fouls in the entire game and only 1 in the second half even though Duke has dominated in the paint and only the boards. 🤔

ICE told nurses this Minneapolis man “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.”

What actually happened is that they pulled him from a car, beat him so viciously with a steel baton that he had 8 skull fractures, 5 life-threatening brain hemorrhages, and couldn’t remember he had a daughter.

part of me still can't believe the East Wing was completely destroyed and there have been no negative consequences or reports on whether items inside were properly archived or not

Ted Cruz lost all his self-respect during the 2016 presidential primary. He will never regain it.
I keep thinking about Ted Cruz, who fervently backed Texas Republicans' partisan gerrymandering scheme, crying online about how mean it is that Virginia Democrats pulled off a partisan gerrymandering scheme.

I know he has no principles, but Jesus Christ, man, have some self-respect and dignity.

“Late Friday night, the Fifth Circuit adopted the extreme minority view—that the government can indefinitely detain without bond millions of non-citizens who have been here for generations; who have never committed a crime; and who pose neither a risk of flight nor any threat to public safety.”
208. The Fifth Circuit Jumps the Immigration Detention Shark
Late Friday, two of the nation's most right-wing circuit judges adopted an odious legal claim that district court judges from across the country (and ideological spectrum) have overwhelmingly rejected

Love that the Rams did not fall for jacking up threes against Dayton’s zone, are attacking, and getting to the line. Jennings with at least 4 steals already. 42-22 Rams. 3:45. #LetsGoVCU

Mamdani: "I speak of Renee Good, whose final words to the man who murdered her were, 'I'm not mad at you.' I speak of Alex Pretti who died as he lived, caring for the stranger. ICE shot him bc he did something they could never fathom ... let us offer a new path: one of defiance through compassion."

Too many Virginians face food insecurity, and the recent SNAP cuts will exacerbate this issue and put more pressure on food banks. I'm proud to have secured federal funding for Feed More and Foodbank of Southeastern Virginia and the Eastern Shore to expand capacity and serve more Virginians.

I think it should probably be a bigger story that the president of the United States is a raving lunatic
Trump at the National Prayer Breakfast: "We hit 'em. And we want to hit 'em right, sir, and we want to hit them from the top! East, west, north, south. Sir, they won't know what the hell! And we'll knock them out. We did it politically correct. Five years."

Any funding for ICE is going to result in more Kavanaugh-stop assaults on and injuries to US citizens. You gentlemen and your Senate colleagues need to do everything you can to stop it by throttling funding for this rogue internal security police force.
U.S. citizen running errands ends up in hospital instead after ICE stop.

Agents smashed her window and pulled her out of car.

They threw her to ground and emptied her purse.

When they saw her passport, they just left, leaving her in need of medical attention.

The Minnesota Lawyer Backlog Arises from ICE Kidnappings - emptywheel
The reason -- at least one reason -- ICE is having such a difficult time following judicial instructions in Minnesota is because ICE is snatching so many people illegally.

ICE acting in contempt of court orders. Anyone surprised? Lawlessness is intended.
‘One officer told me that I "had no chance of returning to Minnesota" and that "the best thing for (me] is self-deportation." …
She offered me $2600 to self-deport.
I refused.
I wanted to talk to my attorney.
They didn't tell me the judge had already ordered my release and return to Minnesota.’
