Kind of a Schrödinger’s president situation we have tonight. Feels like the eye of the hurricane.

Q: “What can you tell us about the 75 year old Cuban man who died in ICE custody?”
HOMAN: “I wasn’t aware of that. People die.” 🤷🏼♂️

🚨🚨The White House is pissed off about this ad so you know what to do, share it everywhere! ICE is disappearing people just because of the color of their skin! No Warrant! No Due Process! This is not who we are as Americans! #MAGAKidnappers want an all white America, fuck that‼️

This weekend I wasted at least 5 hours because I was hyperfocusing on creating a playlist of pop or rock songs featuring the saxophone.

The muskrat and the taco are fighting. Ye wants to mediate. Lutnick thinks we can manufacture bananas. A 22 year old grocery store clerk is heading the terrorism protection department of DHS. Are we in an SNL skit?

I am going to suggest this: whatever music streaming system you use—Apple, Spotify, YouTube, etc.—stream as much Bruce Springsteen as you can this week. Let’s make a statement by putting him at the top of the charts.

If someone hates you for seemingly no reason, but then you find out they believe a narrative about you that isn’t actually true, do you try to defend yourself by explaining or just let it go.

DOGE keeps cutting agencies and funding and personnel, but no one I know has saved a dime on taxes.
It’s almost like they are stripping the public good of resources to send that money to the oligarchs in tax cuts…

If you don’t like sending people to die in concentration camps, it is time to speak up. Don’t like making waves? You’re afraid to annoy people with politics? You’re worried being loud will make you a target? You just want to get along with everyone? Then you are locking the doors to their cells.

Reminder: the First Amendment protects everyone who resides in our country. It doesn't matter if you have a green card or a visa or if you're undocumented. The Supreme Court has repeatedly affirmed that any person residing in the United States, regardless of status, is entitled to 1A protections.

They are just disappearing people off the street. Having a hard time thinking about literally anything else.
Not sure if this has been shared here yet, but this is video of Rumeysa Ozturk's arrest posted by WCVB. It's terrifying.

This is what happens when you have an entire cabinet full of folks who would NEVER pass a regular security clearance.
Led by a president who would never be able to pass one either.

Just had the most frightening dream. I’ll leave out the gory details except the part where I woke up by crying out “we’re all dying!” Hope it’s that I’ve been consuming too much news rather than me becoming some macabre prophet. Anyway, no more sleeping tonight!
