Eric Trump: "We're saving Christianity. We've saving God. We've saving the family unit. We're saving this nation. I mean, DEI is out of the window, Benny. You no longer have Colin Kaepernick kneeling for the national anthem. You no longer have Budweiser going woke as hell. All of this is dead."

He’s back in the water swimming free. We do eat a lot of fish but the smaller ones. I couldn’t kill a fish like the one my son has here.

It's a story of highly trained professionals (EMTs and ambulance drivers) who have clear protocols and an accountability structure coming into conflict with completely untrained agents who have no consistent protocols or accountability.

This story is well reported and worth reading.

Threatening to shoot an ambulance driver. That’s out of control.

Abolish ICE.

Nick Kristof @nickkristof.bsky.social · 1d

In Portland, an ambulance was summoned to the ICE office to treat an injured protester (not clear how he was injured). But when the patient was loaded inside, ICE officers refused to let the ambulance leave and threatened to shoot the ambulance driver: www.wweek.com/news/2025/10...

Documents Allege a Federal Agent at Portland ICE Threatened to Shoot an Ambulance Driver

Feds delayed medics who had come to pick up an injured protester. Then, according to confidential incident reports, the agents became aggressive.

She’s an American of Italian descent but I’ll go with actress Marisa Tomei.
Why?
Because My Cousin Vinny exists.

As fate would have it I just finished reading Confederacy last night.

Everyone says it’s funny but is it? There were certainly some comedic scenes but I found Ignatius to just be pitiable and tragic. The whole thing left me kind of down.

Multiple airports are now announcing they will refuse to play Kristi Noem’s government-funded video blaming “Democrats” for the government shutdown.

“We believe the Hatch Act clearly prohibits use of public assets for political purposes and messaging,” one airport said.

In fact there’s no point in engaging. Blocking and moving on.

This is unhinged, dissociated from all reality nonsense. Might as well join QAnon. Same vibe.

White or wheat bread?
Crust removed or not?
Homemade pimento cheese or store bought?

Nothing against audiobooks - but it is not the same as reading. Claiming it is the same is like saying that flying an airplane is the same as hearing about flying an airplane.
