shout out to Dan McQuade, who took me up on an offer to see Hannibal Buress at the Troc, pulled out his phone to record the Bill Cosby joke, and through the butterfly effect of the internet sent Bill Cosby to prison and kickstarted the #MeToo movement. He was one of the kindest guys I’ve ever met.

McQuade personally used the power of the press to get the Jon Bon Jovi Rest Stop to take down the "Acting is like scoring a touchdown" quote erroneously attributed to Ed Harris. What have you ever done?

another demonstration of how poisoned these people’s brains are is they’re posting pics of thugs from DHS cowering in fear next to arrestees who look like fearless dissidents from every revolution ever and they think the DHS weenies will look good in comparison
Scrolling through the photos of Pam Bondi's "Minnesota rioters," it's just hero after hero. Every photo includes a cowardly DHS agent with their back to the camera.
Bondi thinks she's going to win the propaganda war with this shit, but it's never been more clear that they're losing.

More and more Americans are voicing their outrage at the tactics being deployed by federal agents in Minnesota. But it's important to understand the broader implications of what this administration is doing, and the threat it poses to the basic freedoms of every American.

99.999% pure liberal ideology: making sure the children we kidnap and abuse have access to healthcare
Anadith Danay Reyes Álvarez died in government custody.
She had sickle cell and congenital heart disease but couldn’t access timely and adequate medical care.
We need to reform immigration detention.

Very little if anything seems to have changed on the ground. ICE is still out there terrorizing neighborhoods and trying to disappear neighbors. None of us on the ground are buying this bullshit. We will keep organizing and fighting.
The intense fallout from the killing of Alex Pretti has forced President Trump to publicly change course in Minneapolis.
Listen to our White House reporters discuss the changes on today's episode of "The Daily."
