Oscar watch commencing
My house rules are that for a full watch I have to see all the movies in all categories before the beginning of the Oscar ceremonies, so if the only nomination is for best song I have to watch the whole thing
This year that means 50 movies and I’ve only seen 1

The testing ground for Bovino’s Operation At Large was Los Angeles. A California judge initially prohibited ICE/CBP’s most flagrant constitutional violations. SCOTUS overruled her 6–3, handing Bovino a blank check to inflict unspeakable brutality on Chicago and Minneapolis. The 6 bear so much blame.
BREAKING Greg Bovino has been removed as Border Patrol "commander at large" and will return to El Centro Calif, where he is expected to retire soon. A stunning turnaround after Pretti killing. Bovino's traveling blue city crackdown is over www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

I love this spectacular Ruffed Grouse Pennsylvania resistance bird by Jen Rand ( @jenrand.bsky.social ). The star is a nod to the Quaker tenet of nonviolence, and the style harks back to PA Dutch folk art.

Also, more broadly, it’s good to watch them panic and shift blame and backpedal. They will still do so much more harm, but they are visibly flailing, and that’s something worth holding onto and using to keep pushing instead of giving in to “Trump has God-like powers” doomerism.

It’s really satisfying to watch Bovino eat shit. I think it’s fine to enjoy seeing bad people get sacked, while also acknowledging that it’s barely a fucking start.

The more I think about it, the more I’m convinced the Democrats have to push their hand immediately. The parallels with the delays and subsequent failures after January 6th are blaring warning signs about what will happen if they don’t go after the issues with ICE and CBP at the root RIGHT NOW.

I know there are a lot of people who felt viscerally uncomfortable hearing Palestinians talk about victims of bombings as martyrs, who instantly understood why Renee Good and Alex Pretti are martyrs. I’m not saying that to shame anyone; it’s just worth thinking about.

None of these Republicans and most of these Democrats are not all of a sudden “seeing the light on ICE.” They simply understand the worm turning on public opinion and saving face. They will ALL go back to voting for minority brutalization as soon as they can. You can’t keep falling for this.
