Goodbye.
The Buddhist Monks have now completed their Walk for Peace and are heading back to Texas.
They do not carry trophies or plaques. They do not leave with a louder name than the one they brought. They carry only the same saffron robes, now a shade deeper with the grit

Some children in Dilley were so distraught they cut themselves or talked about suicide, parents told ProPublica.
They said kids lost their appetites after finding worms and mold on their food, had trouble sleeping, and were constantly sick.

Talarico hits hard: America’s so divided we can’t even share a Super Bowl—two halftime shows, two realities. What’s driving this? Fear. Pure fear. But Bad Bunny’s stage? Nothing but joy, unity, beats that lift us all. Ditch division. Embrace the vibe. One nation, one show

There are literally more surveillance cameras in Atlanta (124.14 per 1000 people) than people aged 65 and over (123 per 1000 people) according to the 2024 U.S. Census population estimates
Why should you care about the ACPC's financial crisis, even?
1. Atlanta is the most surveilled city in the *world* outside China, with one camera per EIGHT people.
2. "Cop City" protestors were hit with RICO charges for 1st Amendment-protected activities such as handing out flyers and mutual aid.

You can joke about Pam Bondi’s ridiculous unprofessionalism all you want, but I’m deeply shocked by it: She acts as if she fears absolutely no consequences, convinced that there will be no more political power transfers. — This should shake everyone to their core.

Trump tried to corner Canada.
PM Mark Carney didn’t blink. He didn’t fly to Mar-a-Lago to kiss the ring!
Instead he did what no Canadian leader has done in our lifetime.
He told the president of the United States to go to hell!
Now that’s how you handle a bully!

Kasie Hunt: These are notes that the attorney general brought to the hearing today. This shows a list of Democratic congresswoman's search history. The searches that members of Congress are performing are apparently being tracked and then read by the Department of Justice, by the Attorney General.

Please call your Senators at 202-224-3121 and tell them to vote NO on the GOP’s voter suppression bill, the so-called “SAVE Act.” If you do make the call, please reply with a ✅ bc it will encourage others to do the same, & I want to thank you personally. Thanks!
Most Real IDs do *not* prove citizenship. (EDLs, which are available in only 5 states are an exception) The GOP’s “SAVE” Act thus misleads when it says voters can prove citizenship w/ “a form of ID issued consistent with the reqmts of…REAL ID…that indicates the applicant is a citizen of the US…” 1/

They say any half-DECENT prosecutor can indict a ham sandwich. Silver lining in Trump’s DOJ? They don't even have that. After failing to indict 6 Dems for reminding troops to refuse illegal orders—they’re left blustering. Kelly & Slotkin’s response says it all: Speak Truth to power—not backing down.

The government's poorly trained, out-of-control, aggressive, mercenary paramilitary goons are out on our streets executing our neighbors.
You can see the ICE goon driver turn the wheel and ram the victim's car right after one says, "It's time to get aggressive!"
Fires five times into victim's car

Wow. CBO estimates that U.S. consumers bear 95 PERCENT OF THE TRUMP TARIFFS.
Basically, foreign firms bear 5% of them, U.S. companies bear 30% of them but other U.S. companies get to raise prices on consumers from less competition so that nets to zero.
And consumers pay rest.
