As a teacher of English, the anger that the Super Bowl halftime show was mostly in Spanish is bitterly funny, in that the current mad king *cannot speak any sort of educated, grownup, comprehensible English*.
Respect YOUR native language, asshole, before you insult someone who clearly loves his

Fun fact about odious swine Tricia McLaughlin!
In Irish, "McLaughlin" means "son of the stranger," meaning not Irish but a descendent of violent foreign Norse invaders.
Make of that what you will.

all those people complaining about a protest in church are going to rise up over this too right?
A community is devastated after ICE raids an LA church and arrests a congregant during a church event.

Ah. I heard of this. It's apparently called "states' rights"
Trump: “To all complaining Local Governments, let us know when you are ready, & we will be there — But, before we do so, you must use the word, “PLEASE.” Remember I stated to BEWARE — ICE, Border Patrol or, if necessary, our Military, will be extremely tough in protection of our Federal Property.“

Did Liam Ramos get privacy rights? You know, for the protection of his family
Tillis says he opposes ICE being barred from wearing masks: "I've seen people dox me. I've seen people take pictures and identify law enforcement officers and then put their families at risk. So, I think that's a step too far."

Can I get a payment for promising to never watch CBS again until the dipshit in charge gets fired?
Below is the buyout offer all CBS Evening News staff received today.
"We hope you are excited about this vision, but we understand that some of you may not be, and we want to provide support. As such, we are offering an extraordinary chance to leave CBS News with an enhanced separation payment."

Same as the "ceasefire" in Gaza
ICE activity has not noticeably tapered off yet here and in fact this week they seem to be focused on terrorizing kids at bus stops and schools.
yes, there are no real signs of any big change in DHS activity here yet. In Chicago there really was after Bovino left and they basically ended "Midway Blitz" not so here so far.

So I see that there is a "de-escalation" in Minnesota exactly like there is a "cease fire" in Gaza. Same shit song, makes the pundits dance.

Dems coalescing around 5 restrictions on ICE, I'm told:
DHS required to cooperate with state probes (big)
CBP stays at border
warrants for arrests
IDs, bodycams
ICE out of churches, schools
"That package unites a lot of Dems," Sen Chris Murphy tells me on the pod:
