ICE agents in Queens, New York break down a bedroom door and point guns at a mother & her four US citizen children
They dragged the mother out by her hair while yelling at the kids to “put your hands up, stupid!”
This is tyranny
These kids are traumatized
It was warrantless and no ID was shown.

I really loved the Star Trek: Khan audio drama; just about to finish my second time through it. Does anyone have other fully produced, well written audio dramas to recommend? Not into mysteries, don't want reality, especially don't want true crime. Looking for a great story. Thanks for the help!

Fun fact: Jerry's daughter is Melora Hardin... Jan on The Office!
Happy birthday to Jerry Hardin, who played three roles on #StarTrek: He was Samuel Clemens ("Time's Arrow") and Radue ("When the Bough Breaks") on #StarTrekTNG and Neria on #StarTrekVoyager ("Emanations").He inspired the twin Twains!

Yeah! Calling a person "piggy" is VERY respectful! How dare you think otherwise?
Q: What did the president mean when he called a reporter "piggy"?
LEAVITT: Look, the president is very frank & honest with everyone in this room. You'll all seen it yourself. You've all experienced it yourselves. And I think it's one of the many reasons the American people reelected this president

MAGA Christianity:
1. Calling Zohran Mamdani a "terrorist" bc he's Muslim.
2. Cheer when Trump buries his face in the laps of actual Muslim terrorists.

Honestly, it doesn't even sound like he believes the bullshit he's saying anymore.
Mike Johnson: "Democrats are trying to use the Epstein matter as a political weapon to distract from their own party's failures. In a desperate attempt, they're trying to somehow tie President Trump to the scandal. President Trump has nothing to do with it. He said himself he has nothing to hide."

But don’t say “happy holidays” because that’s anti-Christian.
"Agencies within the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, including ICE, ERO, and CBP intend to implement a comprehensive plan to target Spanish-speaking churches across the country during the upcoming holiday season between Thanksgiving, Nov. 27, and Christmas, Dec. 25."
Exclusive: Trump DHS Plans Immigration Raids on Churches Over Holidays
The Trump Dept. of Homeland Security is briefing federal agencies on plans for immigration enforcement operations inside churches over holidays.

I’m going to be honest with you: The headline is appalling, but the piece, which indeed has an absolutely bizarre tone of nostalgia, is worse.
