I feel like it’s after someone I loved died. I would briefly forget- and then remember everything is terrible and final.

I never thought I would be disgusted by my country.

This is a fantastic piece of rigorous, in-depth reporting. It will make you want to pass out with rage. But definitely read it.

The men disappeared to El Salvador because of their tattoos

The Trump administration sent Venezuelans to El Salvador’s most infamous prison. Their families are looking for answers.

Not if I and millions of other like minded Americans have anything to say about it.

I am old and lazy and still hitting the street on April 5, this shit will not stand if we stop it

Meta raked in $8B thanks to Trump’s first tax cuts. It donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration.

Comcast got $6.6B. It donated $1M to his inauguration.

Bank of America got $24B in tax subsidies, and you guessed it, donated to Trump’s inauguration.

This is who Trump governs for.

I strongly suspect this recent piece from Prof. David Knoll is about to be come extremely relevant and widely read.

"Even a rogue marshal’s service, in other words, is not an insurmountable obstacle to courts enforcing the rule of law. If courts have the courage, the legal tools are there."

If the Marshals Go Rogue, Courts Have Other Ways to Enforce their Orders

Opinion | Even a rogue marshal’s service is not an insurmountable obstacle to courts enforcing the rule of law.

CFPB to Employees: When We Said Stop Work, We Didn’t Mean Stop Work!

The illegal plan to dismantle the consumer agency is failing. So Russ Vought and his charges are engaging in some CYA.

How is it going?

I have thought about how I could save Estelle if there was a fire❤️

I am stumped by the tension lever. The knee lift works, the lever does not. A pro (who also has a 1200) looked and was stumped, too. Which was better than him fixing it in 5 mins after a year but 🙁

Do you think it’s worn out?

Check out this story from Detroit Free Press:

Yes, yes yes!

"...we desperately need maturity. Republican, Democrat, independent, liberal, conservative, moderate — we the people and our elected leaders need to start acting like mature adults."

If you meet someone who's running for office, writes contributing columnist John Lindstrom, ask one question: Are you a grown up?

The more I think about it there are similarities between Tucson and Lansing. I think the youths call it a “vibe”
