Damn, I got no traction for my chant "Newt is a Nazi for the Nineties" during the Battle in Seattle WTO protests, while standing outside of Newt Gingrich's hotel. But I did get teargassed, so there is always that... I got to say that the Code Pink protest was in all ways a huge success. Congrats!

"ICE protests are nothing like 2020. So why is Trump floating a Portland crackdown?" asks the Oregonian.
It's simple. Trump is stupid. He saw a picture of the 2020 protests and thinks it's what's happening now. Put down a 2020 protest in 2025? Maybe he can also stop WWII.

Well now, to understand this quote, we need to read the rest of it. "The they, which supplies the answer to the who of everyday Da-sein, is the nobody to whom every Da-sein has always already surrendered itself, in its being-among-one-another.” Got it? I don't, but my mother does...I mean my other.
Everyone is the other and no one is themself.

In other news, Trump announced that the U.S. is sending a manned mission to land on the sun. In response to questions about if this was a safe thing to do, Trump replied, "Nothing to worry about. The landing will be at night."
Burgum: "When the sun goes down, you have a catastrophic failure called sunset and there's no solar energy produced, and yet we're subsidizing these things that are intermittent, unreliable, and expensive. We've gotta get back to base load."
