Three years ago today: Riley, who adored Louie (the little shitzu in the sweater), giving kisses, and Zoey, who also adored Louie, telling Riley “too many kisses, he doesn’t want them right now”

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

Remember, if the Sixers lose tonight, it is entirely because they traded Jared McCain.
If they win tonight, it's because they got lucky that they didn't need Jared McCain.

the fun thing is this guys are objectively bad at using these weapons too. BORTAC is violent as hell but not particularly competent. You can tell when a riot team knows how to maximize the impact of chemical irritants and flashbangs to disrupt a crowd. it's a skill.
NEW: since last year, a pair of "highly trained" feds have been involved in an array of incidents attacking crowds with chemical weapons.
We used public records and open source analysis to identify Edgar Vazquez and Michael Sveum, alongside some other members of their tactical team.

Swear to god, ICE could just announce they're leaving a city but not leave and the media will just stop covering that city completely even though ICE never left.
It's what ICE and the media did with LA and they're doing it with Minneapolis too

Eric please stop
Somebody should write a story about how Tobias Harris is 0 for 329 on 3s in clutch time in his career. (He seems like a nice guy, so I feel kind of bad about that.)

They said “which one is worse?” and rightly decided Melania
Can’t believe they released the Epstein files to cover up for the Melania movie.

I'm skimming through mentions of Trump in the Trump-Epstein Files, and there's one thing that I'm thinking over and over:
All we had to do was believe the women.
There are dozens of stories in here that make me ill. Do you really believe these are all lies?

One of the hardest things to explain to people who aren’t here is the very real feeling that we are in a war against the federal government. Not only are we occupied by unaccountable armed, masked paramilitaries, but we are constantly aware our neighbors might be abducted in the blink of an eye.

Finally got around to a bit of research I'd been meaning to explore, and: There is no documented instance of an ICE officer being identified and assaulted while off duty because he wasn't masked. www.pbump.net/o/ices-excus...
ICE’s excuse for wearing masks has never actually manifested
There have been incidents of harassment and threats. But there are no apparent incidents in which identified ICE officers have been assaulted off-duty.

Just finished Better Call Saul. I enjoyed it, especially the back half. It also did draw me into a Breaking Bad rewatch. Time to refresh myself on the lore.

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.

ICE & CBP have been out kidnapping people in Los Angeles every day since June. The media has moved on and acts like this isn’t still happening. The crises are ongoing. Solidarity with the people fighting back in Minneapolis and everywhere.
please remember that no matter how many “ICE is losing in MN” articles you read today, there is still a very real, urgent, ongoing crisis in Minnesota.
people need food and they need rent money. that has not changed.

Damn, people figured out Tillis’s name and where he works?
Tillis says he opposes ICE being barred from wearing masks: "I've seen people dox me. I've seen people take pictures and identify law enforcement officers and then put their families at risk. So, I think that's a step too far."
