directed by John Kelly and narrated by Domhnall Gleeson but hard not to draw comparisons to Chris Wareโ€™s oeuvre of spare and melancholy comics of drab flab White men riddled with arthritis and regrets.

A cautionary tale.

Team USAโ€™s problems are an interesting look at what the culture of America without immigration is like. Americaโ€™s a cool place because we allow people to come here and make their culture part of ours, and without that weโ€™re getting out asses kicked by everyone in the having a good time department.

BUTTERFLY

by Florence Miailhe, employing her oil-on-glass painting technique.

The original image is transformed in the process, a depiction of memory & perseverance for Alfred Nakache, a Jewish French swimmer who survived Auschwitz to compete in the 1948 Olympics.

I just had virtually the same conversation with my nephew (humanities edition) - heโ€™s graduating college in May and had wanted to go into academia but says itโ€™s totally infeasible with so many departments not taking grad students and funding drying up.

Weโ€™re losing an entire generation of scholars.

ICE agents reveal daily arrest quotas and surveillance app in rare court testimony Under oath, officers said they were told to make eight arrests a day and given special tech to help choose โ€˜targetsโ€™

When a federal judge (finally) put ICE officers under oath, they admitted that they are given daily detention quotas and rely heavily on a Palantir-supplied AI tool to select targets, without warrants and without enough evidence to obtain one. They simply go into neighborhoods and round people up.

Judge blocks ICE warehouse construction in Md. Project Salt Box's co-founder Michael Wriston discusses the victory for opponents of ICE's vision to build Amazon "Prime, but with human beings."

I strongly recommend listening to this account of how citizens of Maryland have successfully battled a planned concentration camp.

Shockingly the plans were grotesquely inadequate and would have screwed locals as well as the inmates.

I read the โ€œSave America Act,โ€ so you donโ€™t have to. Most of the media apparently *hasnโ€™t* read it because, if they had, they would be sounding the alarm about the provision in Point 1, below, which almost none of them have even mentioned. I hope this summary helps raise awareness. 1/

I firmly believe that this is the job of the news. To not only report whatโ€™s โ€œnewโ€ or how, for example, repeat how Trump softens his language on immigration during the Midterms, but to remind people how reckless and abusive ICE was just months prior.

Hegseth: "We will keep pushing, keep advancing. No quarter, no mercy for our enemies."

No quarter is the refusal to take prisoners and instead just execute everyone. It's been considered a war crime for over a century.

This story is 100% FAKE NEWS.
CNN decided to run this garbage based on three anonymous "sources familiar with discussions."
This is despite the fact that myself, the Secretary of War, the Secretary of State, and multiple lawmakers (who were actually present for the recent classified briefing) have directly disputed this false reporting.
THE TRUTH: The Pentagon has been planning for Iran's desperate and reckless closure of the Strait of Hormuz for DECADES, and it has been part of the Trump Administration's planning well before Operation Epic Fury was ever launched.

In the 1920s, there was an enormous Klan-aligned caucus in the House of Representatives that passed an immigration restriction bill designed to keep out Catholics and Jews because they supposedly posed an existential threat to American civilization. 100 years later, here we are.

The killing of schoolchildren should shock our conscience and cause us to recoil in horror.

A nation whose leaders can so easily shrug off the death of children, no matter the cause, is in need of moral repair. 

There must be accountability and lessons learned from this tragedy. And we must never forget that Iranian children, too, are children of God.

I long warned fellow members of the Muslim community that at some point the GOP would return to demonizing Muslims. The GOP simply rotates their hate depending on need. Their hatred towards Latinos is costing them votes so now it's Muslims. Soon they will be back to LGBTQ, Blacks, women and repeat.

Ms Rachel has shifted from advocating for children killed by bombs that our taxes pay for, to advocating for children that our government is imprisoning without cause, which our taxes also pay for.
