Even the walkway of a mostly empty strip mall offers magic for those with the eyes to see it.

already in custody or currently being hunted down? Do you not understand that a protest for a murder that isn't being charged is actually about the injustice of the whole not being charged thing and not the murder? Like, we have an entire criminal justice system build on the after the charges part.

While I know the answer is just that conservatives are stupid subhuman animals it really fucking gets to me that they keep bringing up that there are no protests for random murders? Like bro, those people are going to jail. Why the fuck would anyone need to protest a murder if the murderer is ether

During the Vietnam War, U.S. troops left “death cards” on corpses as a deliberate intimidation tactic. Now ICE is doing it.

ICE is THREATENING DEATH, flaunting the fact that they don't give a shit about due process.

Every real American should be outraged.

Context: this speech is from SIR THOMAS MORE, a history written, as near as scholars can tell, in the early 1600s by 6 or 7 people including Dekker, Heywood, Chettle, Shakespeare, and Munday.

It was never performed, because Jacobean England was a police state and it was banned by the censor.
Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

"Dear" Dr. Oz: If we could get the average American billionaire to start paying taxes, it would generate ten or maybe a hundred times to the US economy. That would more than remove the debt without the general public having to sacrifice more to keep your bogus government in operation.
Dr Oz: "If we could get the average American to start working a year earlier, right out of high school, or a year later -- not retire -- or work better during their lifetime because they're healthy, it would generate about $3 trillion to the US economy. That would more than remove the debt."

I am an adult, #adulting

This morning for breakfast I had lucious melted brie served on pita chips.

10 out of 10, I'd do it again.

She'd worn the badge and a gun on her hip, and like all the other rookies in her academy class she was expected to go out every night in her patrol car to do her job of protecting the public.

What do we know about Judge Fred #Biery? Will his court order be considered invalid/unenforcable because of the date error? Was it an honest error or did it get signed with an invalid (and impossible) date on purpose?

What part of #DefundICE did they not understand?

We said what we wanted but no. Our damned senators gave ICE more money. Screw two weeks more. People can die in two seconds from ICE executions.

Federal legislators might as well prepare for retirement because THEY ALL NEED TO BE REPLACED.

You know, if we can't just fire every person top to bottom, involved with the #EpsteinFiles we should at least go to the top level & get rid of that one.

Let's impeach Bondi, kick her out of office, arrest & convict her, & put her in maximum security prison.

A friend of mine just pointed out that if Trump was somehow successful about winning in 2020, then his election in 2024 would be invalid. The Constitution says no one can be elected more than twice. 1/2

I see the fathers' sons and daughters, I hear the mothers crying...
