With this talk of ICE and CBP performing "security" at Club World Cup matches, I see that FIFA has this interesting policy on human rights that would certainly be violed by CBP/ICE performing security www.fifa.com/en/tournamen...

Gov. Cuomo should stop parking illegally ... because it encourages people to run his plate and see what a reckless driver he is. buff.ly/73CiWsf

The military should not carry out immigration enforcement.

Also on this note, why are there so few benches on the DC side of this trail? There's like one bench between Gtown and the border. Once you're in Mont Co it's like a bench every 20 yards.

It is amazing how fast she wants to shove this thing down our throats. I absolutely loathe the mayor. Putting up with both her and Dump's authoritarianism are totally overwhelming.

As seen today on the Capital Crescent Trail in Mont Co. I'm sure no similar signs were posted on the road 20 feet below this. It's a bike path!

"defund the police" was so obviously correct. I really don't care if it doesn't poll well. it's like telling me that I should stop saying I like vaccines if they stopped polling well.

I've run into Gary Williams a few times around DC. Saw him at a GW game in 2010 and asked him to do the fist pump with me in a photo. He wouldn't.

Everything about this accident is so bizarre that we really need the black boxes before we can begin to understand what went wrong. Gear still down, only up to ~500 feet, position of flaps unclear, nose up attitude. This is all very weird. We need more information. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/12/b...

The state of California needs to arrest the DHS "security" forces for assault and every Democrat in the U.S. Senate needs to sign onto a campaign to impeach Kristi Noem. Right fucking now.

LA is home to nearly a million undocumented immigrants. If you live here, you know someone living that reality whether you know it or not. It’s part of what makes this city what it is—and no, we’re not living in fear because of them.

The only difference between WMATA under Randy Clarke and WMATA in 2015 is that Lynn Bowersox isn't running WMATA PR anymore

The sole criteria I will be voting on in the 2028 primary is which candidate credibly promises to put the largest number of Trump officials in prison. I do not care about any of their other policies.

Michael Mann refilming HEAT but this time DeNiro’s crew dresses up as ICE and the LAPD just gives them a police escort away from the bank

I don't know why NPR is airing a 20 minute long interview with a government flak over the invasion of LA with the US military. That should be reserved for actual govt leaders. At least Inskeep is actually trying in this one, unlike in his interview with Portnoy where he rolled over and played dead.

The federal government will: —Deny states and localities funding based on their support for the environment, trans people, and people of color —Invade cities with military agents to arrest innocent people The federal government will not: —Assist you when you get hit randomly by a hurricane

You have no obligation to defend or explain the behavior of random street protesters. We have a lawless government that is flagrantly violating its legal, moral, even philosophical obligations to us. Everything else is secondary

How do you screw this up? Club World Cup, where LA is a host, is next week. The REAL World Cup, in which LA also plays a host, is next year. www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/...
