Found an additional graphic that gets even more of these quotes together.

I've kept "I hate myself, I hate clover, and I hate bees" pinned above my desk since I first started studying evolutionary biology as an undergraduate. So relatable to get extremely frustrated with your study system.

I don’t really know what I expect in posting this, but maybe some people see it and can learn from it.

I’ll call it “lessons from an unwilling immigration attorney.”

What? No you don’t.
Markwayne Mullin defends "show me your papers": "If you're here legally, there's nothing to hide. Most people already are walking around with a government-issued ID, meaning your Real ID or your driver's license. If you go board a train here, you gotta show your ID."

Nice of him to confirm that he didn’t traffic his own children, I guess, but I don’t think that anyone thought that until he very weirdly brought it up?
VAN HOLLEN: Did you in fact make the visit to Epstein's private island?

LUTNICK: I did have lunch w/ him as I was on a boat going across on a family vacation. My wife was with me as were my 4 children and nannies. We had lunch on the island. That's true. For an hour. We left with all of my children

It is VERY important to get your electeds to publish state "abolish" as it moves the needle of what will be a midterm platform point. If you want Dems to abolish when they have legislative levers, it has to be publicly acceptable discourse RIGHT NOW.

The phrase "luxury surveillance" just sent a chill down my spine
With Ring, American consumers built the surveillance dragnet. Ring's Super Bowl ad, which highlighted a feature to find lost dogs, showed Ring is still, again, and always will be in the business of leveraging its network of luxury surveillance consumers www.404media.co/with-ring-am...
With Ring, American Consumers Built a Surveillance Dragnet
Ring's 'Search Party' is dystopian surveillance accelerationism.

The thing is, it’s not impossible that Britt felt a genuine pang over what happened to Liam. It’s just that that means absolutely fuck-all if it’s not followed by meaningful action, or promoting legislation that demonstrates that she understands why what happened was wrong.
I'm sorry but this story is bullsh*t. Katie Britt was so worried about Liam Ramos that she did ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO HELP HIM? Come on. This section right here shows Britt's true self.

By the way, for those of you not in MN: Homan’s strategy was to withdraw some agents, so it felt like we were in the denouement of the crisis, and then escalate hard against observers. They’re being incredibly aggressive with observers now. National media may not want to check out just yet
