Remember on The Simpsons, one of the instructional films that you might know Troy McClure from was "Paint Chips: Delicious But Deadly." Now under RFK Jr, it's just been changed to "Paint Chips: Delicious."

The Smart People said "Abolish ICE" was too radical. Then ICE kidnapped students, sent innocent people to a mega prison, broke into a car to take a mom from her daughter, and tried questioning elementary kids while lying that they had parents permission. Ask yourself: which part is more "radical"?

Back in 2006-7 the consensus was that especially on the heels of 9/11 there was no way the country could elect someone with a “middle eastern” name let alone a black person. He won 29 states, 365 electoral votes and by 7 percentage points. AOC28

In the mid-1970s, US network drama was basically cop shows, doctor shows, and The Waltons--and Upstairs, Downstairs would trounce them at the Emmys year after year. It was such a big deal: Pre-VCR stay-home-on-Sunday-night appointment TV. RIP Jean Marsh, a trailblazer. deadline.com/2025/04/jean...

This is terrifying in America. ICE agents are showing up masked—these abductions must stop. If you’re going to detain someone, show your face, present a warrant, and proper ID. Disappearing people from their families without evidence or accountability isn’t law enforcement—it’s state-sponsored fear.

Tourism is a big, profitable sector of the economy involving multiple industries. When tourists visit and spend money, it reduces the trade deficit (or adds to a trade surplus). Any economic benefits to the US from tariffs will be swamped by losses in tourism alone, not to mention everything else.
