"Do I expect violence to escalate? Absolutely."

Homan: "I begged for the last two months on TV for the rhetoric to stop. I said in March -- if the rhetoric doesn't stop, there is gonna be bloodshed. And there has been. I wish I wasn't right. I don't want to see anybody die."

We’ve sent a metric shit ton of hardware to the Middle East in the last 48 hrs.

The most significant force posture changes aside from the carrier strike group:

- more Growlers (electronic warfare platform)
- Combat Search and Rescue aircraft
- multiple C-17 transport aircraft

In a blistering ruling, a Bush-appointed conservative federal judge said that ICE "has likely violated more court orders in January 2026 than some federal agencies have violated in their entire existence."

Congress must not give one more cent to this rogue agency.

7 Republican Senators (or as Fox News calls them, “defectors”) join all Dems & Independents to block funding package. All are willing to fund everything but DHS, but Majority Leader won’t separate the bills, clearly playing chicken on a potential government shutdown.

From me: Chuck Schumer's legislative demands for DHS funding are so narrow they almost mirror what ICE/CBP have just announced in Minneapolis. Just as Republicans were conceding the need to negotiate, Democrats pre-negotiated themselves into mush.

Trump’s deployment of federal troops has cost taxpayers nearly $500 million so far — and could surpass $1 billion for the rest of the year.

That’s after slashing SNAP and Medicaid, letting ACA subsidies expire, and gutting countless other federal programs.

Priorities.

ICE is upset that ICE isn't welcome in restaurants after ICE ordered food at a restaurant, ate it, then arrested restaurant employees, and ICE believes this is someone else's fault, do I have that right?

As is "normal" now, there's a wide band of fossil fuel-heated Atlantic coast water up to +12.1°F (!!) above historic averages, waiting to turn storms into monsters

And as is "normal" now, our media will not mention the climate crisis at all in its storm coverage (this article does not)
