Never forget that this what The Washington Post said when Noem was nominated.
ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. She’s married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.
They’ve already sent her to Louisiana.
It implies that we are visitors in someone else’s country.
I continue to be gobsmacked at 1) how common this formulation is 2) how antisemitic and generally bigoted it is 3) and how for all the talk of anti-semitism this is never cited as an example even though it’s quite literally the original incarnation.
Yes meaning, yes they should have to declare war and have a congressional authorization.
What’s fascinating is that for so long alcohol interests fought weed legalization because they feared it was a substitute good and they were right! Alcohol consumption has plummeted as weed consumption has grown and seems pretty clear from public health perspective probably a net win.
Does she get to keep the costumes?
Gonna be very funny when the team gets worse after he comes back.
SCOOP: In a January letter to Rep. Delia Ramirez (D-IL), DHS says 270 DACA recipients have been arrested from January to September 2025. In addition, 174 DACA applicants have been deported, according to ICE records.
Those numbers differ from what was shared with Sen. Dick Durbin in February.
Exactly! I’ve worn out that clip the last few days
among other things, it's very very funny to imagine Trump having granular knowledge and strong opinions about various obscure Iranian regime figures possibly in the running.
Like Alex Pretti and Renee Good.
relatedly, Talarico is unlikely to win texas because being a republican is an important aspect of too many people's identity here, even if they disagree with the far right lunatics in the legislature on specific issues bsky.app/profile/yair...
Steve King 9 @SteveKinglA + Follow Wilders understands that culture and demographics are our destiny. We can't restore our civilization with somebody else's babies. ESTERN ILIZATION Voice of Europe @V_of_Europe Hundreds of Islamists shouting "Allahu Akbar" in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. Wilders is right for over 10 years. #turkijerel RETWEETS LIKES 516 688 10:40 AM - 12 Mar 2017 from lowa, USA
I'm teaching about early 20th century eugenics today and was reminded that 9 years ago Republican Representative Steve King was stripped of his committee assignments by his GOP colleagues for this post that simply states what is now bog standard GOP policy/rhetoric on immigration and "civilization."
NEW: Clemency for Tina Peters would be unprecedented, based on my analysis of Gov Polis' 25 commutations. Peters hasn't shown remorse, taken accountability, or sought to restore harm. No Polis commutation was for a harsh sentence alone and Peters' would be the shortest by 30+ yrs
Really 80’s guitar player
Really 80’s singer
Really 80’s bass guy
Trent Reznor looking like Trent Reznor from age 18-60
Deeply fascinated by the new wave band Trent Reznor used to play with in the 1980’s and how everyone looks so incredibly 80’s except for Trent Reznor who looks exactly the same as he always has to the point where he might as well have time traveled
They’re still lying to us.

The very obvious problem with this implementation of popularism, as a purely political matter, is that you are *constantly* raising the salience of your worst issues!
James Talarico speaks for the first time since clinching the Democratic nomination for his Senate race in Texas. “One thing is clear today: we’re about to take back Texas,” says Talarico.
“At the end of the day, she didn’t sound any better than some of these ultra-conservative people who were demeaning Black and Brown folk on a regular basis,” said Rev. Rodney Sadler, a Bible scholar and longtime community activist in Charlotte. “It felt like a betrayal of the utmost.” Cunningham’s comments proved so problematic for Sadler that he said he realized that she was “no longer worthy of being our representative” and he had to run against her. “It drove me to a point of saying, ‘She needs to go, and she needs to go now,’” the 58-year-old pastor, who works at Charlotte’s Union Presbyterian Seminary, told Bolts.
this guy challenged a sitting Democratic lawmaker in yesterday's primary, angered by her pro-ICE vote, and he ousted her 70% to 22%.

I remember back when everyone agree about neoliberal global trade consensus, there was a very small number of economists you could talk to who objected, they were almost by definition eccentric/quirky (peter navarro!) but in restropsect they got a lot right!
Camp East Montana was supposed to be the Trump administration's model for a new breed of large-scale, makeshift immigrant detention centers. Eight tumultuous months, 60 violations and three deaths later, ICE is preparing to close it. New from me: t.co/jOIIRAMJCo
One does not answer the question the way Noem did if the answer is "no".
One woman who called the State Department helpline looking for help said they told her to "stop ranting and raving" and hung up on her.
Another woman said they asked her how to spell Oman.

I spoke with two ICE watchers who lost their Global Entry after brushes with federal agents. Now an internal memo shows Customs and Border Protection is evaluating cases where people's Global Entry could be revoked based on "encounters" with its officers.

Horrifying. Jesus Lord in heaven.
BREAKING on MS NOW:
The House Oversight Committee just voted to subpoena Pam Bondi as part of the panel's Epstein investigation.
The vote was 24-19. 5 Republicans voted in favor.
Quite literally “we have always been at war with Iran.”
i wind up tweeting this basically every time there's an article like this, but the fundamental thing to me: ask yourself whether you earnestly believe there's more social pressure to be trans, or more social pressure to be cis. it's actually a super easy one!
Would’ve been amazing if he pointed to him and said “That guy’s gonna be a Texas congressman some day”
