Well, another year where our Island soccer team did not get chosen to play in FIFA. On the bright side, we didn’t have to attend or flap our wings for the participation trophies given out. Time to prepare for Eurovision selection.

And by "outrage," they mean they found CJ Doyle of the Catholic Action League sputtering outside the church, St. Susanna.

if i worked in a White House with an elderly and ailing president who had a hard time staying awake, i would simply recommend against having 3 hour cabinet meetings that are boring af and pointless and best remembered for the fact said president is sleeping on camera

I feel nuts every day that the Trump administration has decided "It's not a war crime if you do it to a boat!" and so far there have been no consequences for that decision.

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

40 men Trump sent to CECOT tell the NYT they were beaten, tortured, and sexually assaulted. The details are worse than you can imagine.

We can’t let them get away with this. Miller and the other architects of this sadism need to go to prison.

Props @wbez.org for pointing that out in a delightfully deadpan fashion during one of the news reports today.

For those that don't know, an undocumented person drove drunk and killed someone in a crash, and dear leader likes to talk about that incident as the reason they're here abducting people.
