Don't bother arguing about whether ICE is a police force or a military force. It's neither. It behaves as a disorganized, violent mob, cursing, shouting contradictory orders, and attacking unarmed citizens on a whim. It is deployed to create fear and chaos, not to enforce laws or establish order.

"In a statement to CNN on Sunday, a spokesperson for the Smithsonian told CNN that the National Portrait Gallery has begun an update to the “America’s Presidents” exhibition and is looking into a more minimalist approach for new additions."

If Only Tonight We Can Sleep

If only tonight we can sleep
In a bed made of flowers,
If only tonight we can sleep
In a deathless spell -
...........
And the rain would cry:
Don't let it end,
Don't let it end -

Under Pressure

And love dares you to
Care for the people on
The edge of the night -

And love dares you to
Change our way of caring
About ourselves,
This is our last dance
This is our last dance!!
This is ourselves:
Under pressure --

The Titans are interviewing former Browns coach Kevin Stefanski, and he’s in the building today. This is their last interview of the weekend.

He didn't shoot her in the head at point blank range because he felt like he was in danger. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he was furious that she wasn't afraid of him. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he felt emasculated.

Disappearer

The site comes alive and - speaks the mind
It turns to me and - it turns to gold
It turns to see a - the fast lane slow

It's been a way too long
It's been the way I gone
It's a-coasting on
To the west star -------

This feels like a moment where escalation helps no one except those looking for an excuse to crack down. Walz is right peaceful protest keeps the focus on justice, not chaos, and avoids handing anyone a pretext to make things worse.

The National Anthem

Everyone
Everyone is so near
Everyone has got the fear
It's holding on
It's holding on

It's holding on
It's holding on
It's holding on ---
