The toad beneath the harrow knows
 Where every separate tooth-point goes 
The butterfly upon the road
 Preaches contentment to that toad

Don't worry, y'all. If Kash Patel and the FBI are up to no good in Atlanta, Kash Patel and the FBI will get to the bottom of it and take Kash Patel and the FBI down. Look out, Kash Patel and the FBI. You are coming for you!

🚨WHOA. The El Paso Medical Examiner says it will rule the death of a 55-year-old Cuban man at ICE's "Camp East Montana" tent camp as a homicide. He was allegedly choked to death by a guard during a "struggle" after he refused to enter a housing unit without his medications.

Pritzker: The Insurrection Act is designed for circumstances where your rights can’t be protected by local authorities This is exactly the opposite. Your civil rights are being infringed upon by CBP and ICE, and then they want to call in troops claiming that they’re protecting CBP and ICE.

At least Obama's hypothetical Death Panels would have decided who deserved to die based on a rubric more complicated than "did they just piss off a high school dropout armed by the state"

My husband was on the 2 train and a guy started braying about how Renee Good deserved to die and her "lesbian lover" did too. My husband got pissed and said, "You're absolutely disgusting." "Fuck you!" the guy said. "Fuck YOU!" my husband said. The guy left. See? We just need to talk to each other.

Every couple of weeks we get a different description of the apparently awful stench coming off our necrotic president and I think it's high time the media nail down exactly what kind of rotten meat covered in women's perfume he actually smells like.

This is Porter. He became paralyzed after a spinal stroke. After weeks of physical therapy, this was the moment he realized he can feel his legs again. 14/10 we're so happy for him (IG: emmagraceferguson_)

#ColorfulMonday This is "Posh Penelope" by Cindy McGerry. She saw this design at a quilt show and purchased a Quick Curve Ruller ASAP. Then Cindy was on her own learning curve! Not only is this gorgeous, but she used scraps from her stash! I'd like to pick through her stash.

One thing we can say that we know for certain, no matter what abuses of power or corruption Trump engages in, Republicans in Congress will do and say nothing. Except that Susan Collins will continue to be concerned.

DAVE MATTHEWS: “I don’t want my taxes to pay for masked thugs to roam our streets & terrorize our communities... She was trying to get away. He shot her 3x in the head. Murdered in cold blood. They’re trying to tell us not to believe what we see. FUCK ICE.” (H/T @marcofoster.bsky.social )

People from other countries where their cops don't carry guns telling us to fight our cops with guns. People in countries with healthcare and a livable minimum wage telling us to risk it all. So many Amerucans are two paychecks from homelessness.

When Renee Good said "I'm not mad at you" what the ICE goon heard was "I'm not scared of you." That's what enraged him. The populace wasn't fully terrorized and cowed into submission yet, so he acted to make that happen.

Unless & until some local jurisdiction fully investigates one of these rogue, murderous ICE agents, this will continue. Criminals like these will keep killing people until there's a price to pay for doing so. And they'll have to do it alone. They won't get help from the FBI or any other fed agency.

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.

Is your dumb ass really asking why someone would try to drive away from a platoon of masked, Full Metal Jacket lookin' wockaflockas, stompin' into neighborhoods, breaking down doors and windows, draggin' men, women and children away with "absolute immunity"?

After hearing such terrible news about a lovely person who was just doing what any Mother would do for her children. It seems somehow just not fitting to post anything else today. My heart goes out to Renne Good's family. It is all so terribly sad, and ought never to have happened!
