ICE observers in Minnesota are skeptical about the White House's claims of a federal drawdown.
But they have noticed in recent weeks a shift from aggressive street sweeps in Minneapolis to instead target people in the suburbs or quietly waiting in unmarked vehicles of residential areas.

One of the things I noticed listening to Andy Serkis reading The Fellowship of the Ring is the differentiation in social class between Sam and Frodo (and Merry and Pippin). Traces of it remain in the movies, but to a much lesser degree.

Ghislaine Maxwell lied on her US citizenship application. She checked the no box when asked if she had ever procured anyone for prostitution.
She had been trafficking since 1994. This could get another 25 years added to her sentence.

Love isn’t measured by what you receive, but by what you share.
Never miss a moment to say “I love you” Especially to yourself

Yesterday, the Trump nominee for a high-level State position (Jeremy Carl) went in front of Congress. Some might know that he wrote a book-length expression of white grievance politics ("Unprotected Class"). I finally took the book off my shelf, so you can see exactly what the regime is promoting. 🧵

Lot of folks (understandably) got hung up on the snorting coke off the toilet part of that RFK clip, but equally important is that when the head of HHS says, "I'm not scared of germs" it's because he is on the record as literally not believing in the germ theory of how infectious disease works 🫠
