What worries me with ice is that the public has no way of knowing if they are really ice. They have unmarked vehicles, wear masks, show no warrants or legal paperwork, no identification, and appear very unprofessional and violent. Anyone could be impersonating ice to terrorize our communities.

Pew Research Institute (2023):

• Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants

• Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants

• Blue State Minnesota has 130,000.

And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration."

It's *not* about immigration.

"Imagine people in the 80's finding out we were run by..."

Dude, one of the most popular songs from the 80's had a music video that portrayed Ronald Reagan as a senile dipshit who accidentally nukes the planet. And this was for a song by PHIL COLLINS.

Your Cherokee words for today.
The top word is English followed by how it is written in the Cherokee language followed by how it is spelled in English then how to pronounce it phonetically.

A massive "Hands off Greenland" protest is happening right now in Copenhagen to demonstrate against Trump's threats.

"The aim is to send a clear and unified message of respect for Greenland's democracy," organisers said.

“Respect for Greenland, respect for Greenlanders, respect for Denmark.”

Just downloaded Bitchat. It uses Bluetooth to send messages between phones so you’re not reliant on cellphone carriers or the internet in case those networks are shut off. It’s new, so we’ll see how it works, but we need tech outside their control.

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

This is Maybelline. She was found as a stray, struggling to breathe. Born with an elongated soft palate and abnormal sinuses that cause severe swelling, she has never been able to take a full breath. Surgery will give her that chance. You can help her below ❤️‍🩹

One of the most hilarious unintended side effects of the administration’s lies about “organized groups” is that the people I know who aren’t quite as plugged in are all like “wait, there are organized people out there! Awesome! Where do I join?”

Indeed someone's impersonating me in email, likely for a marketing scam. Folks, I'm unlikely to ever send you email, but if I do, it will be from my own domain, not from anywhere else.

That said, this author's book looks cool and you might check it out:
