Did you know:
ICE agents are cowards? They are untrained & weak? They are sniveling little Nazis who kill when they feel belittled & frustrated, & when made to feel ACTUAL fear they will abandon their Righteous Cause in moments?

After ICE agents shot people in Minneapolis tonight, a crowd faced them down and eventually chased them away, despite federal mercenaries and police shooting a tremendous amount of tear gas.
ICE agents abandoned vehicles in the area, containing IDs, paperwork, license plates, and operational plans.

If there's one empirical insight I'd want everyone to understand about American politics, it's this:
America's problems are solved problems. Just not here.
What would change if the US simply matched the average of 31 peer democracies? Not Denmark or Norway. Just the middle of the pack. 🧵

Just learned that David Harbour named the apartment where he has sex "The Dojo" and tbh even if I was really into someone, the instant they call their home "The Dojo" I'm out.
That said it they take me back to an actual dojo for sex? I'm in.
