"Fiery." Only someone who thinks mayonnaise is spicy would characterize that hearing as fiery. It was petulant. It was factually inept. It was stupid and embarrassing. It was not "fiery."

That's assault. One wonders where the Chicago Police are and why they're sitting on their hands (one does not wonder that they are cops and they aren't interested in enforcing the law when the perpetrators are cops).

Like nearly everything this White House does, it will be challenged in court and Trump will lose because he's a losing loser who loses. A lot.

But the point is to put furloughed federal employees through the pain, so they should all get to punch Russ Vought in the dick on top of their backpay, imo.

This photo from a couple of weeks ago keeps making the rounds, but I never say anyone attribute it. I think it's important to know who took the shot, because she's probably going to win some awards for this.

The Rev. David Black of First Presbyterian Church recoils as a U.S. Customs and Border agents deploy tear gas and pepper balls Friday at the Broadview ICE facility outside Chicago. Ashlee Rezin, the Chicago Sun-Times Photo Desk editor, took this shot on September 22, 2025.

The dude in the frog costume made a point to say the pepper spray wasn't shit because he's Mexican and eats hotter things for breakfast. That's got to make a mediocre white boi sad.

'Cause slavery was abolished, unless you are in prison

Involuntary servitude and slavery it prohibits

1,000+ people currently imprisoned in Louisiana were convicted by split juries — ruled unconstitutional in 2020.

Yet the state Supreme Court has declined to grant new trials, and lawmakers have repeatedly denied a reexamination of their cases.
