“Scientist.” Right.
CBS obtained video of the DHS killing of an unarmed man in Texas that DHS concealed for nearly a year, which clearly contradicts claims that he violently rammed anyone. He is shot with his brake lights on, car not moving or barely moving. Another DHS crime.

Why Stan Smiths? He was a mensch. Arthur Ashe’s best friend. Anti-Apartheid activist. Champion.
Plus, the shoes feel and look great.
Confession: In my advanced age I’ve developed a habit of collecting unusual versions of Adidas Stan Smith shoes.
I now have 20 pairs.
I might have a problem.
There’s a growing cottage industry where wealthy criminals pay insiders to lobby President Trump to pardon them. While some call it a perversion of the Constitution, it’s a refreshing source of job creation in an otherwise unsteady economy.
It has been over two years since Markwayne Mullin challenged someone to a cage match in the middle of a US Senate hearing. Why won’t the Democrat Party acknowledge this?

“I will do it tomorrow,” said Toad. “Today I will take life easy.”
1/ Anyway, this reminds me of a story I read about James Mattis in Trump's first term.
During a meeting in the Situation Room, Trump angrily ordered the military to assassinate the entire government of Syria.

During a White House event on college football, Trump mocked and shut down a question about Russia allegedly helping Iran target U.S. assets. “What a stupid question that is to be asking at this time. We’re talking about something else,” said Trump.
OMG
Iran destroyed a key $300 million radar system crucial to directing US missile defense batteries in the Gulf that risks further straining the region’s ability to counter future attacks.

Oh I hate that move. Along with “What I hear you saying is …” as if so don’t spend my entire life choosing my words carefully. Tressie is far better with words than I am.

Nashville Noticias staffer Estefany Rodríguez was detained by ICE in South Nashville on Wednesday morning. There was no warrant for her arrest. Her attorneys have filed an emergency petition in federal court seeking a writ of habeas corpus, or an immediate review of whether or not her detention is legal. Rodríguez, who was in the car with her husband — a U.S. citizen — has been following all the legal steps to citizenship. In her job, Rodríguez has reported several stories that hold ICE accountable, and it’s unclear whether her detention was retaliation. As of Thursday afternoon, she was in Alabama en route to an ICE processing center in Louisiana.
Something I don’t think can be emphasized enough is how fast ICE is shipping the people they detain off to another state. “Move fast and break things” but for people in potentially life or death situations. nashvillebanner.com/2026/03/05/j...

In the 1960s, you would have seen Republicans at the memorial service of a major civil rights leader. Jackie Robinson was a Republican. Nelson Rockefeller helped pay for Dr. King's funeral. The absence of Republicans at Rev. Jackson's memorial service speaks volumes about today's Republican Party.
Prosecutors are losing key witnesses in criminal cases because they are getting deported by this administration.
The lawlessness of ICE and CBP makes us all less safe.
