2. A supermarket where you leave your list to be picked and packed and go into a back room “speakeasy” spa for full pampering and when you are done and rested you pick up your groceries and go home. Nobody needs to know you weren’t just running errands

Riker sits on the control panel that's used to fire torpedoes and stuff while it's in use.

Riker sits on the control panel that's used to fire torpedoes and stuff while it's in use.

Riker puts his foot up on a panel, or at least on the slope leading up to one; it's hard to say for sure. (Honestly, he's probably not on the panel itself, but he's definitely leaning his body weight against the console.)

How, may I ask you, could one buy a command-level Starfleet officer who's always sitting in unprofessional ways and putting their feet on stuff?

I'm referring, of course, to William T. Riker. Not sure who else I could be referring to.

Here's a problem with TV that the new series #StarfleetAcademy is highlighting for me: If you're going to insist that each season only be ten episodes long, and that even the *best* series never get ten seasons, then the "hundredth episode" milestone is simply going to disappear from television.

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.

Trump fires Kristi Noem as DHS chief, names Sen. Markwayne Mullin to replace her Stepping in as acting secretary is GOP Sen. Markwayne Mullin of Oklahoma who Trump said had "Wisdom and Courage required to Advance our America First Agenda."

This is not accountability, just a reshuffling of the enablers of the Trump/Miller agenda.

The problem isn't just with Sec. Noem, DHS, ICE or CBP. Nothing will change until we until we recognize and hold accountable those who are ultimately responsible for what is playing out before our eyes.

If Trump is serious about ending Noem’s tenure, DHS should immediately reverse her decisions to:

**put ICE in schools, hospitals, and houses of worship

**make it harder for people fleeing autocratic nations to seek asylum

**deprive people of due process

Until then, we will still be in court.

Graphic from JCPA (Jewish Council for Public Affairs) with a blue background and a faint image of civil rights marchers holding protest signs. White text reads:
“While we know Secretary Noem directly oversaw so many of the dangerous policies coming out of DHS, we should be clear: this transition does not actually address the fundamental issues at hand.
The Department has militarized immigration enforcement, rooted in dehumanizing and dangerous conspiracy theories and leading to the killing of innocent civilians and the repeated violation of our laws.
It has held up vital security funding for synagogues and other institutions via the Nonprofit Security Grant Program (NSGP), while politicizing the program through unrelated conditions that force communities to choose between their safety and their values.
The list goes on. No matter who leads DHS, Congress has a fundamental responsibility to use its funding and oversight authorities to ensure real accountability and transparency.”

That’s because this administration doesn’t see anything wrong with killing protesters.
