The Department of Homeland Security is murdering American citizens. Congress cannot allow that to continue, we must act.

We need a full, independent investigation into these killings. 1/

The horrific shooting of Alex Pretti has only sharpened the position I announced last Friday—the House-passed bill funding Homeland Security is a non-starter because it lacks sufficient safeguards against abuse and accountability for those who have used their power to brutalize our communities.
My statement on the House-passed government funding bills:

I've been looking at this scene since yesterday, loving the fact that no one has created footprints in the snow. Excited to explore the neighborhood, I stepped out this afternoon.
Yeah, that's solid ice.
I went out the garage instead.

The girlfriend was interested in doing a snow day happy hour at Liberty Tavern this afternoon after work. As a good boyfriend, I trekked out at lunch to see conditions.
I think we're staying in.

Virginians: Your voice matters to me. We’re understandably hearing from a lot of folks right now. My team is doing its best to answer every call, but if you don’t want to wait on hold, you can always send a message through my website – every single one gets read.

Hey @rumdood.com - Is this even made anymore? Nam found a drink recipe called "Mosquito Coast" calling for it and I found this unopened bottle in my collection.

The rest of the world should boycott both the World Cup and the Olympics. We have masked and unaccountable paramilitary death squads executing people in broad daylight in the streets right now. It's not a safe place for visitors.

As we anticipated the storm yesterday we made beef stew. I learned the basics from my mom. It was hearty and delicious.

We are preparing for the storm.

Julie @arlbrew.bsky.social was right, this Denizen Revved Up West Coast IPA is delicious! Glad I'm drinking my crowler now so I can get another one here in a bit.

Whole Foods Clarendon was a madhouse by 7:15 AM. Fortunately we were on the way out by that time.

There is *no* functioning Dem leadership at this point. Jeffries and Schumer need to go NOW if our nation is to have any chance.

Anyone need two GE MWF compatible water filters for a GE fridge? We got a new fridge today that uses a different kind.

I love the fact that a recent update to my Pixel - I believe ostensibly to "protect my privacy" on a device that rarely leaves my possession and is never used by anyone else - means I no longer see important notifications from email, texts, or Slack.

It is fucking *amazing* how little Johnson sees or hears.
Surprise! Mike Johnson says he hasn't seen any of Trump's (bonkers) speech in Davos

James Baldwin wrote that the real tragedy of our lives is this: fear of our own morality leads us to do all sorts of (and this is my paraphrase) destructive stupid shit. We’re witnessing this truth every day: an old man with all the power in the world destructively acting out his fear of death

This is the behavior of a mad king or a toddler, not a U.S. President.

Trump’s bizarre and erratic behavior is making us less safe and it’s long past time for Republicans in Congress to stand up to him.

This dangerous stupidity has to stop.

I kind of flashed to _Once Upon a Time in Mexico_ when Johnny Depp's character shot the chef but goddamn this is real fucking life.
The more I think about this, the angrier I get. It takes a particularly virulent strain of sociopathy to sit and let hard-working people serve you a meal knowing that you plan to arrest them and send them off for deportation once they're off of work.

Really depraved shit.
A few days ago, Fox News was whining about ICE agents getting heckled at a Mexican restaurant in Minneapolis.

Meanwhile, in the town of Willmar, ICE agents had lunch at a Mexican restaurant, waited until it closed, then confronted and arrested three workers as they left.

The Virginia legislature today passed four constitutional amendments, all by day 3 of 2026 session:

—protect abortion rights
—repeal the same-sex marriage ban
—allow mid-decade redistricting
—greatly expand voting rights restoration.

These will all go to 2026 referendums.

I can't emphasize enough how great it feels, as a Virginian, to be rid of Youngkin and Miyares.
I am honored to serve as the 75th Governor of Virginia.

It is with a profound sense of duty to all Virginians that I assume the Governorship and pledge myself to work tirelessly on behalf of our Commonwealth — our home.
