BREAKING: Deaths in ICE detention are causing international strife, with the Mexican government calling for an investigation into deaths in detention.

I have adored this show from the beginning. But the first episode of this season left me feeling a little. . .tired. Tom C. seems like he's lost his mojo.

@colorado.gov no clemency for those who commit crimes against our elections.

This reminds me of "Pet Patrol," a morning feature on the local country station in Laramie in the late 70s. The DJs made the lost pet notices a must-listen. There was a four-block area where it seemed like a lot of pets went missing, which they referred to as "Laramie's Bermuda Triangle."

What, I wonder, is an elegant exit? Perhaps @dieworkwear.bsky.social has thoughts.

Unfortunately, in 2019 the SDNY told the NM AG to hand over all investigative materials and stop investigating. Then the feds shut the whole thing down. That's another fact to be investigated.

Really hard to believe Oz cares about people's health.

I have an idea. Let's get stickers with replicas of the plaque, take a tour of the Capitol and post them everywhere.

WATCH β€” @jamestalarico.bsky.social : β€œEvery dollar we spend bombing people in the Middle East is one we’re not spending here at home. We’re always told we don’t have enough money for schools or healthcare or for veterans, but there’s always enough to bomb people on the other side of the world.”

Maybe we all need to visit Congress and bring our own plaques.

Just out @propublica.org: How did the Pentagon make the horrible mistake that left more than 150 school children dead? Perhaps because it cancelled an effort to limit such harm in favor of Hegseth’s lust for β€œlethality.”
