I mean at this point ICE constitutes a serious threat to public health so this seems entirely logical
The Senate may choose to vote together on the DHS and LHHS bills. Thus, a filibuster on DHS may mean no funding for NIH. What my colleagues are saying:

“Shut it down, public health will understand. I’ll work without pay again.”

We tend to think of things happening in the present as the endpoint of stuff that's been percolating for decades, but it's also the beginning of new things: These are formative events that nobody living through them will forget, and we have no idea what seeds are being sown for the future.
I keep thinking about how Frances Perkins, maybe the most transformational cabinet secretary in modern history, witnessed the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire in her youth, and the things the people on the ground in Minneapolis may live to do.

ICE agents only do this because they are extremely well-trained and experienced with the situations they are creating
ICE agents fled from the crowd and left behind their CONOPS battle plan for Minneapolis, including agent's names, hotel rooms, phone numbers, boxes of license plates, and tac radio frequencies.

i can't stop thinking about how the US's stance is that the US can prosecute foreign Presidents for crimes allegedly committed in the US, but that the ICC and UN cannot do so, and also that the US cannot prosecute *its own President* for crimes committed in the US

Visited the Sunken Treasures exhibit at the Fernbank Museum in Atlanta it included a number of incredible artifacts from the ancient Mediterranean, including the ram of a ship lost during the first Punic war. The dedicatory inscription was even still legible!

There is a deep read in the NYT today on how Epstein exploited greed to amass $Billions. The stock markets are corrupt, rigged shitholes, now being joined by crypto. The tax system is an immoral cheat theatre. It's time for class warfare...but this time not by the Reaganites and Trumpers.
