You did an entire country proud and, frankly, scared the bejeesus out of your opponents at every stage of the playoffs.

And as we say in Next Year Country: next season.

Fox reported this last night. I posted it on social media last night. It is a major purge of senior ICE officials resulting from conflict with Border Patrol. But the Speaker once again doesn’t know anything about it. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Q: What's your reaction to yesterday's purge of senior ICE officials? When is it time for Congress to do some oversight?

MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know any of the details of that yet. I just heard about that, literally I was walking in.

Also, none of the über eager know their history because if they did they’d know that even the most loyal and closest to power are fair game when the regime decides it’s done with them.

"Can't miss the boat"
"Embrace it or be left behind"
"You'll be replaced by someone using AI"

These are all marketing slogans that prey on FOMO rather than value propositions. Anyone making decisions based on this kind of shaky logic is just another layer in the pyramid scheme.

“When someone says we can’t miss the boat, I ask: where is the boat going? What exactly will this technology improve? That’s rarely discussed. Since when did we become Big Tech's free PR department?”

It never ceases to amaze me how certain people cannot seem to understand this:

Language is telling.

They’re telling on themselves.

Underage girls = “ripe” and “fertile” to them.

That’s how they see them.

For those who are here, it’s felt clear that the administration is using Chicago as testing ground for how immigration removal tactics could be applied across the nation. And now, this is even clearer. If you’ve not followed closely, it’s time to catch up.

The Trump administration could tap the $5 billion in contingency funds available for SNAP.

The Senate could waive the filibuster on the issue,

but there’s something else going on:

The depth of the shame of a country this wealthy and abundant allowing its people to go hungry is impossible to measure. The fact that a handful of people could fix this by paying their fair share of taxes while still remaining obscenely wealthy makes it even worse.

Oh, I have soooo many thought on this but they’ll have to wait as I need to go to sleep.

I’m currently in a bit of a spat with a friend on this topic and have finally found a great analogy to explain how these folks aren’t just not Catholic, they’re not even Xtians.

People across the country are fighting for their lives and also to protect their neighbors. They are doing so in the 100s of thousands every single day. You can choose to join the fight or you can pretend that "no one is doing anything."
