I feel like I don’t talk about my Latino identity a lot, but Bad Bunny’s halftime performance literally means so much to me
I know Bad Bunny is playing at the Super Bowl, but I could not tell you what teams are to save my life

Mamdani: "I speak of Renee Good, whose final words to the man who murdered her were, 'I'm not mad at you.' I speak of Alex Pretti who died as he lived, caring for the stranger. ICE shot him bc he did something they could never fathom ... let us offer a new path: one of defiance through compassion."

NEW: Abigail Spanberger this afternoon ordered that all state agencies leave ICE's 287(g) program.
This means that the state police (and some other agencies) will no longer be empowered to detain and arrest people for ICE.
Big, big move by the governor within weeks of coming into office.

Virginia’s New Governor Ends ICE Program. Local Contracts Remain, For Now. - Bolts
Abigail Spanberger left the 287(g) program, which empowered state law enforcement to detain immigrants. Will Democrats also bar local police and sheriffs from the program?

ICE demanded Maine sheriff’s employment records following his criticism of arrest
The subpoena came a day after Cumberland County Sheriff Kevin Joyce blasted immigration agents for arresting one of his guards.

Well well well. Looks like they were correct. They just lied about who it was.

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.
Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

This is the equivalent of being in healthcare and saying healthcare isn't political. I am always fascinated by how dumb and unaware someone saying that must be. Truly the most airhead statement of all time.
Cosmopolitan asks Sydney Sweeney if she ever intends to publicly state her political beliefs:
“No. I’m not a political person. I’m in the arts. I’m not here to speak on politics. That’s not an area I’ve ever even imagined getting into… but I don’t believe in hate in any form.”

The ChicoCA subReddit moderator posted today that supporting ICE is a bannable offense for that forum. It was always kinda leftist but people appear to be getting radicalized. Also, two anti-ICE protests are happening this weekend in Chico, from two different groups. That's definitely an escalation.
