Don't listen to or believe any polls.

Vote early.
Get your friends to vote early.

Cause SCOTUS is going to be up to some bullshit.

Photo of a few square inches of tree trunk. Growing on the tree trunk are several grey lichens (growing flat on tree), a lichen that looks like a bunch of tiny egg yolks, and a bright red fungus that looks like a half dozen or so round/oval red blobs.

A few square inches of tree trunk. At least 4 species of lichens (Parmelia, two Physcia species and Caloplaca) plus Red Tree Brain Fungus. #lichen #fungi #fungifriends.

I’ve been asked if I would support Sen. Mullin as Noem’s replacement.

The answer is a resounding NO. The rot in DHS is deep, much deeper than any individual.

It’s a question of policy not personnel. The Senate should not consider any DHS Secretary nominee until DHS and ICE are reined in.

ICE detains reporter Estefany Rodríguez in Nashville - Nashville Banner Reporter Estefany Rodríguez, detained by ICE with no arrest warrant, may face deportation. Her attorneys seek immediate review of the legality of her case.

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.

"The point of being over 40 is to fulfill the desires you've been harboring since you were 7." is my favorite quote from Guillermo del Toro. I don't think there is another director with whom I so identify. Hearing him talk about movies gets me emotional and his movies really speak to me.

This was filmed October 3, 2025.

Noem is finally out. Good.

Now let’s make sure she’s prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

This is not my image, nor was it my camera. My hats off to whoever took this beautiful picture. It shows that life will allow more than one species to benefit from one thing at once. Even Bees and Hummingbirds can share water or nectar.

Kristi Noem has done a stunning amount of damage and it’s good she’s gone.

But this doesn’t change the fact that we need a complete overhaul of DHS, impartial investigations into the killings of two American citizens, and information on children that were taken from Minnesota.

Under the leadership of Secretary Noem, the constitutional rights of people across our state were violated and two Minnesotans were killed. Alex Pretti and Renee Good should be alive today.

DHS Secretary Kristi Noem out, Trump says She will be replaced by Sen. Markwayne Mullin, Trump said Thursday.

Secretary Noem's legacy is one of racial profiling, abuse by ICE and CBP, free speech violations, and more.

While she is leaving DHS, the anti-immigrant policies devised by White House aide Stephen Miller aren't. Congress must remain firm and deny funding to DHS until they truly rein in ICE.

Congress needs to act NOW to rein in Trump’s warmongering.

I fully support @kaine.senate.gov's war powers resolution.

AOC: “That’s one reason he must be removed from office - if the Epstein files have such a hold on Trump & this admin that they are willing to plunge us & risk world war in order to save themselves politically - that is the definition of someone who cant make objective decisions for the American ppl”

maybe it's just obvious common sense to people who aren't me, but one of the most valuable things I've learned about writing over the past 6 years is that there is NO reliable relationship between how good *I* think a story is, whether *editors* like/accept it, and how hard it hits with *readers*

Suddenly, its turns out that it is not smart to arrogantly shit on an ally that has learned how to down 200 Shaheds every single night and then wipe out and oil refinery or a military airfield with a handful of cheap drones.
