Nurul Amin Shah Alam was a blind refugee, unable to speak English. DHS improperly detained-but finally released him

Instead of bringing him home, they dropped him miles away-without regard to his disability or notifying his family

Unable to find his way, he died on the streets of Buffalo

THE KILLER by John Woo proves less isΒ more Watch The Killer--a classic by John Woo that influences tons of modern directors--and you'll notice that the best parts are the quiet ones. The tension of face-offs between the assassin and the detective, guns pointed, but no triggers pulled. The scenes with Jenny, the singer blinded by the assassin's unintentional shot. And the moments where characters win by being clever instead of shooting things.

Absolutely insane story about a middle-aged woman from Hertfordshire who got arrested, shackled, and detained by ICE and held in a prison for eight weeks.... while on holiday... with a valid tourist visa... as she tried to leave the country.

What problem is Trump's new global 10% tariff meant to solve?

If it's about leverage, ask: How much leverage do you get from a tariff that disappears in 150 days?

If it's onshoring: Who builds new factories based on tariff that disappear before the factory is built?

It's a tax. That's all it is.

Nicely done! NASCAR drivers should be required to have crazy names. If they embraced the inevitable crashes and armored the cars/demolition derbied it up, far more folks would watch.

Happy Friday! This week's quiz is not beatable. If you do better than 7/12, buy two lottery tickets and give them both to somebody you hate. #SLATE #newsquiz

Rep. James Talarico On Confronting Christian Nationalism, And Strange Days In The Texas Legislatu… YouTube video by The Late Show with Stephen Colbert

Colbert posted the interview online. I do wonder if CBS and the FCC are aware of the Streisand effect? The interview has been up for 8 hours and has just over half a million views.

The pace at which US wealth concentration is rising is simply staggering

The concentration of AI wealth into the hands of a few tech barons + plutocratic capture ==> unchartered territory
