“Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.” Dalai Lama
There is always time to be compassionate and kind.
Even on the days that feel a bit stretched. Even when we may be juggling more than we would choose.

Ben Smith: I don’t know if Stephen Miller resigns before the midterms, resigns after the midterms, or sticks around. But this feels like that moment when a president puts a lot of confidence in one adviser to steer national policy in a direction that turns out to be politically disastrous.

Holy shit.
A lot of people have suggested this, but I don’t think Lieu would make the allegation unless he had seen some evidence.

DARVO is used to manipulate the narrative.
DHS, ICE, Noem, Miller, Trump, the GOP, and Fox News uses DARVO to deny and attack murder victims Renee Good and Alex Pretti and turn them into the offenders while turning the offending ICE agents into the victims.

Important to note that the guy who famously advised his party to "Accuse your opponent of exactly that of which you yourself are guilty" was Karl Rove, who is today platformed on Fox "news" as a "reasonable" Republican who is not afraid to gently correct Fearless Leader.

Donald Trump is seeking billions in taxpayer dollars in a lawsuit against the IRS. “The question of whether he can sue his own agency is perhaps less important than whether he should,” Will Gottsegen argues in The Atlantic Daily:
Trump Is Suing His Own Government
The president is seeking billions in taxpayer dollars from his own IRS. Whether he can do this is perhaps less important than whether he should.

Trump is suing the DOJ for investigating him, while locking people up in detention centers who are here legally and haven't done anything wrong. He doesn't just think he is above the law, he thinks he is the law.

Today we mourn the passing of Rev. Jesse Jackson, a giant of the civil rights movement who never stopped demanding that America live up to its promise.
He marched, he ran, he organized and he preached justice without apology. May we honor him not just in words, but in struggle.

I received a report today from a community member who spotted approximately 24 new unmarked SUVs. outside the ICE facility in Tukwila, WA, just south of Seattle.
It’s hard to say for certain what this means, but it could indicate a greater deployment of personnel in the region in the near future.
