Good grief. ICE detained a Native American actress from “Northern Exposure” and other shows. She is a member of the Umatillo Tribe near where I grew up.

‘Northern Exposure’ actor gave ICE agents in Redmond her tribal ID. They called it ‘fake,’ she says

The paper that brought down Nixon is such a shell of its former self now that it’s owned by a red-pilled billionaire that it is publishing Laura Loomer gossip as legitimate news
This is nuts!

Why is WAPO writing up anyone’s speculation about who the suspect might be?

I get that Laura’s statements and actions are at times newsworthy given her influence on Trump, but no one’s speculation — outside of a government official’s — should be written up this way.

Someone needs to explain to me someday on how Christian McCaffrey does it. But he does.

I always like to start off Mondays with delicious Pacific Northwest food. Tonight it’s fresh caught salmon from a local river on the Traeger pellet grill and roasted broccoli & brussel sprouts in olive oil, garlic, sea salt, pepper, and a touch of cayenne and balsamic vinegar.

ICE deported one of my neighbors. He was 53, here for over 30 yrs w/no criminal record. He was a contractor and built a retaining wall and paver patio for me.

ICE lied to him about his due process rights & deported him within a week without so much as a hearing.

The WaPo opinion page is a complete disgrace, and their editorial board is as bad as the WSJ’s

Cranberries belong in a cocktail, not slathered on turkey
Tell me your Thanksgiving Dinner Hot Takes.

I’ll start:
— Sweet Potato Pie is VASTLY superior to Pumpkin Pie

— The best turkey in the world is not as good as an average roast chicken.

— Stuffing should not actually be stuffed inside the bird for several reasons but mostly: Ew

She's laughin' inside
'Cause they can't refuse

She's so beautiful now
She doesn't wear her shoes

She never likes to choose

She got wonderful eyes
And a risqué mouth
And when I asked her before
She said she's holdin' out

She's a frozen fire
She's my one desire

One hour after Texas asked SCOTUS to block lower court decision to throw out racially gerrymandered new voting districts ordered by Trump, Justice Alito does exactly that.

Supreme Court blocks order that found Texas congressional map is likely racially biased
The U.S. Supreme Court has temporarily blocked a lower court ruling that found Texas' 2026 congressional redistricting plan pushed by President Trump likely discriminates on the basis of race.

The next Dem Administration is going to have to completely flush our federal intel and law enforcement agencies and start from scratch.
WHOA. The FBI was/is spying on a Signal chat for a New York immigration court watch group, claiming they were “anarchist violent extremist actors.”

Your reminder that the government is watching and don’t say anything in a big group chat you wouldn’t say on TV.

ICE kidnapped a 45 year old neighbor who has lived in my neighborhood for over 15 years. A pillar of the community and a licensed contractor who helped many of us, including me.

I am sick.
