- Trump is deporting grad students and strawberry pickers and 4-year-olds with brain cancer, but importing white racists from South Africa and the families of Mexican cartel leaders. Do I have this right?
- MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexico’s security chief confirmed Tuesday that 17 family members of cartel leaders crossed into the U.S. last week as part of a deal between a son of the former head of the Sinaloa Cartel and the Trump administration. apnews.com/article/el-c...
- Right on the money.

- Except, yes, we do.
- Here is a nice mushroom
- Mmmm. Chocolate.
- Sounds like he is not doing well.
- After firing much of its staff, the Office of Personal Management has handed out a no bid contract to cloud-AI-based HR company Workday to help handle the mountain of terminations, retirements and layoffs built up over the first three months of the Trump administration.
- What an airhead.
- Sigh. Can we get through four more years of this shit?
- Gee, anybody see a national security issue in this?

- “I think we essentially have become a kleptocracy that would make Putin blush. I mean, keep in mind that in the first three months, the Trump family has become $3 billion wealthier, so that’s a billion dollars a month.” — Business school professor Scott Galloway,
- “Dr. Hayden was the latest high-ranking Black government official to be axed in the administration’s crusade against D.E.I. — which has become a hallmark of his second term and frequently targeted women and people of color.” 2025 and the NYT finally just says it in a news story, not an op ed piece!
- You are about to watch the whole world respect a chosen name It’s that easy.

- I was thinking of a truck…
- Now this is resistance.
- There’s nothing “blasphemous” about Trump’s post. As a Catholic, I’m not “offended”. The Pope isn’t God, and Catholics make Pope jokes all the time. The problem is an American political system that has collapsed into a “look at me!” carnival that sees trolling as leadership.
- I find it wildly offensive, and I’m neither catholic nor religious. I will miss Francis the way I have missed John XXIII. These were leaders of abundant modesty and good will. They embodied love. They deserved my respect and gratitude. They were every human virtue this piece of shit is not.
- You need something with wheels.
- Finally.

- “These Republicans cannot know a moment of peace. They must understand that we will fight their cruelty with every megaphone and microphone that we have. We must castigate them on the soap box and then punish them at the ballot box.” (Pritzker)

- From someone not even remotely religious. Or “spiritual.” That would be me: It has been hard to lose both Jimmy Carter and Pope Francis within the year.
