I really encourage everyone to spend some time with the DHS Flickr page, which in one year posted thousands and thousands of glamour shot propaganda photos of Kristi Noem and little else. Our tax dollars! www.flickr.com/photos/dhsgov/

I’m just saying, you could make a sequel to The Nice Guys and hide it in the Ringo movie’s craft services budget

It’s not a direct one-to-one comparison but do you ever think about the movies you’ve liked that never got sequels, and then remember that right now they’re astroturfing a fucking 4-film Beatles biopic cinematic universe??

Saw the R-rated version of Requiem for a Dream, and that was enough. Also, Irreversible.

Every news story is now β€œState Senator Randy Pervert (R-Springfield) was indicted on 8 counts of lewd behavior with a child under 12 and has been put on paid leave from his two jobs as Border Patrol liaison and youth pastor at First Presbyterian (PCA) where parishioners say they were β€˜blindsided.’”

Trump imposed 39 percent 'emergency' tariffs when Switzerland hurt his feelings The story is an exercise in pettiness but also a perfect reason why Congress and the Supreme Court should limit the president's power grab.

Border patrol agents killed Alex Pretti. Why is border patrol in Minneapolis at all? Federal agencies have considerable authority outside their given jurisdiction, even when they don't have the training to match.

As ICE cracks down harder, support for abolishing ICE surges ICE’s aggressive tactics and viral raid footage are fueling a sharp shift in public opinion against the agency.

Less than a decade ago, β€œAbolish ICE” was a fringe position. Now it’s the plurality viewpoint. The reason is clear: The more people see what ICE is and does, the more they don’t like it. New at @reason.com reason.com/2026/01/20/a...

Womp womp, cry all you want. These criminal illegal aliens aren’t getting released.

Like clockwork, violent rioters have arrived at the Broadview ICE facility to demand the release of some of the worst human beings on planet earth.

Get a job you imbecilic morons

Twitter repost of a Truth Social post from Donald J. Trump

Did Thomas Massie, sometimes referred to as Rand Paul Jr., because of the fact that he always votes against the Republican Party, get married already??? Boy, that was quick! No wonder the Polls have him at less than 8% chance of winning the Election. Anyway, have a great life Thomas and (?). His wife will soon find out that she’s stuck with a LOSER!

I think it’s Normal and Good that the government of the most powerful nation on earth is run and entirely staffed by the bullies from a Stephen King novel

Even the FBI thinks masked ICE agents are a bad idea In a bulletin first reported by 'Wired', the bureau warns masked agents are easier for criminals to impersonate.

""Criminals posing as US immigration officers have carried out robberies, kidnappings, and sexual assaults in several states, warns a law enforcement bulletin issued last month by the Federal Bureau of Investigation," 1/3

How the Punisher, a murderous anti-hero, became the mascot for increasingly militarized police forces β€œHe is breaking the very laws…that cops are supposed to uphold.”

Interesting @reason.com article from @joelancaster.com about the interpretations (and misinterpretations) of The Punisher.

Great read for #comics fans and #police non-fans.
