Ansari: I think ICE is completely out of control, and there should be no more funding given to ICE. The funding that's already has been given to them through the big ugly bill should be stripped entirely

December 2025 was the 5th warmest December on record globally. This month was about 1.42°C above the 1850-1900 pre-industrial average. Note the sharp temperature anomaly contrast across North America!

"The last attack with Israel that went against Iran had Danish aircraft with it, I believe it had German aircraft with it, and it had French aircraft with it. These are the three allies that we're now insulting."

Rep. @AOC: I understand that Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, and I do not. That is a fundamental difference between Vance and I. I do not believe that the American people should be assassinated in the street.

“For his tireless work promoting the cause of children’s diseases, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is being inducted into the Virus Hall of Fame,” @petridishes.bsky.social writes. She imagines the ceremony:
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to Be Declared Honorary Virus
The ceremony will feature roadkill hors d’oeuvres, goblets of beef tallow, and a sewage plunge.

Samuel Alito flew two flags used by insurrectionists.

Clarence Thomas' wife plotted to overturn the 2020 election.

Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the January 6th plot.

It's a stain on our nation that this has effectively been forgotten.
