Abolish ICE!
REVEALED: we identified the operator of an overtly racist X account, "GlomarResponder," as ICE Assistant Chief Counsel James Rodden, based on an overwhelming number of biographical details matched through publicly available documents, other social media activity, and courtroom observation.

Took some time away from doom-scrolling for the sake of my mental health. I've been enjoying the Tour de France, and getting out on the bike(s). Bought my first proper road bike in years. Still dialing in the fit. Revisiting some old haunts.

That chyron tells you everything you need to know about Fox "News." Giving one of the most capable members of Congress a dismissive nickname. The casual misogyny, racism, etc. is the bonus cherry on top of a shite sundae!

I don't use the word "hate" very often, but God damn, I HATE these people!
We shouldn't need a Black Women’s Equal Pay Day, but here we are. Still underpaid. Still undervalued.

66 cents on the dollar means we lose thousands every year, for doing the same job.

Over a lifetime? That’s hundreds of thousands gone.

Pay Black women. Period.

An important message for all you out there fighting for democracy in the US and worldwide! From the entrance to the sculpture garden that abuts the most used local bike trail. You all truly are enough! Don't forget that! 💙💛

Yesterday's ride. Lowest HR relative to speed of the season so far. The butterfly weed has just started blooming. Still have yet to see any Monarch butterflies.😢
The sign is at the entrance to the sculpture garden that abuts the trail.

This is because every single phone number that Trump ever had in the 20+ years that he ran with Epstein is in that book.

This dude is controlled opposition. Anyone with a brain knows that it was chemtrails! /s
Fresh off the lie that China has no wind turbines (they have the most), Rep Tim Burchett blames Cloud Seeding for the Texas tragedy.

The common theme: running interference for the fossil fuel industry as a climate crisis he denies worsens and more people die. #BumblinBurchett

"Heck of a job, Brownie" 2.0!
I mean it is weird that not only is the director of FEMA seemingly MIA (or at least ducking the press) but also there seems to be no stories asking where he is, right?

The Venn diagram of masked ICE agents and COVID anti-maskers is a perfect circle.

This is kind of random, but being a teacher of applied entomology sounds like a very cool job.

Maybe the Government could create an emergency manage agency, perhaps on the federal level??? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I think it's a near 100% certainty that the vast majority of the well-off who fetishize manual labor, have never done manual labor.
I've worked as a roofer, carpenter's assistant, summer relief in a can manufacturing facility, etc. The sense of accomplishment was gratifying, but I don't miss it.
the other thing is that no one who fetishizes manual labor actually cares to improve life for people who are in those circumstances! no support for unionization or a generous welfare state! no interest in policies that make life easier for people who work their hands or afford them more autonomy!

I know that there a lot of great cities and natural areas to visit in Texas, but no thank you! I say this as a resident of an area that experiences tornados, severe thunderstorms, and blizzards...

Trump lies like normal people breath. I just assume Trump's lying until I hear differently. Assuming that I even bother to check!
#ImpeachTrump #25thAmendment
Trump has been lying, which we all knew, but now there’s hard evidence. For the first time, El Salvador has confirmed that the United States is responsible for more than 130 Venezuelan migrants who’ve been imprisoned for months in its notorious megaprison.

Yet another entry in the "no shit" files!
This is a headline at CNN today.

My first thought was to wonder who ever doubted this.

Plainly put, my consistent evaluation for the entirety of my life has been that women are far tougher than men—which is probably also why men and not women spend so much time peacocking about how tough they are.

Cruz says he returned to Texas as quickly as he could after news of devastating floods broke. Flight data tells a different story.

Some segment of the population has always been like this. Trump's ascent to the National stage and the rise of MAGA have given these people the permission structure to be open about their disdain for empathy.
I want to know how the people around me lost the ability to care about the suffering of others, and worse, how that ability became a character flaw.

Yesterday's ride on County Trunks and farm access roads. Went out after the worst heat of the day had passed. I'm blessed that I can be in the country within 5-15 minutes. Mostly took it easy, aside from mashing it up some of the hills.

Wrong! Today is exactly the day to discuss the DOGE/GOP destruction of our Government. You share responsibility for these deaths, and all the future deaths resulting from your actions Marsha.

There's more that one path to most goals. Also, please stop criticizing people for posting about fun things they're doing, post about their art, music or hobbies, birds flowers, workouts bike ride, etc.
Spending 24/7 being outraged isn't healthy! Mental and physical health are vital!

Prayers are useless to the dead and the living for that matter. Maybe don't cut vital government employees from the NWS and FEMA? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
