I will not call posts here 'skeets.' Never mind that where I come from, that word would typically refer to a blood-sucking, disease-carrying flying insect, there is a simply better portmanteau to be used.
Bleet, a homonym for the sounds sheep and goats make, is perfect for posting to social media.

Incredible. First Secretary Mullin claimed that DHS had identified 15,903 noncitizens on Nevada’s voter roll.
Then DHS officials told a skeptical Nevada, no no no, that’s just people we flagged. Here are the names of 185 people we KNOW aren’t citizens.
All 185 were citizens. DHS got 100% wrong.

How I’d Fix Atlanta was a free monthly essay series for four years. It’s been a couple of print zines and a performance on a stage a few times. Quite often, it’s stickers.

If executive branch creates a system so that people under government control can be located and then just stops listing some people in that system — despite their still being under government control — that should be a five-alarm fire for the other branches, the states, and the public.
NEW: @apnews.com confirms that ICE has begun electronically "disappearing" people in the agency's custody who have final orders of removal.
As of last week, anyone jailed by ICE with a final order of removal will NOT appear in the ICE Online Detainee Locator System, making them effectively vanish.

More importantly, why the fuck would you TELL the public where you’re storing “sniper ammo”
Why do we need to build a massive triumphal arch for sniper ammo and drones? We don’t have any place else that those can be stored?

Symbols matter. White House isn't a palace. Kennedy Center is for the general public to enjoy. We don't have a triumphal arch in DC because that's imperial. We don't put the president's face on money because it's monarchical. It's about tearing down everything that says we're a democratic republic.
I know there’s a savvy take that being attached to the east wing or the kennedy center is a sort of west wing lame-o attachment to the symbols of power and on the other hand

The judge asked the govt if the Kennedy Center is going bankrupt. You should've seen them backpedal
Why so fast? If it's broke, a court puts someone else in charge & they lose control of it

The US already got a do over. A mulligan. A second chance.
Much of the world, especially US allies, were ready to write off Trump’s first term as a fluke.
The American people’s choice to put him back in power—as a convicted felon, after an openly bigoted, anti-democracy campaign—showed it was not.

This is the part many Americans -- including the Bezosites at the Washington Post -- don't understand. Canadians don't see this just as a Trump thing. It's that America elected him twice, and the second time with an even bigger mandate.
The problem we're addressing is America, not Trump.

Not only did I meet Robert Kraft, I worked for him.
His kid Jonathan asked me to “remove the black music” from my gameday playlist in ‘94 & I refused so they fired me. I was the cheerleader director at the time. 
I sued them for wrongful termination and won.
So yes, I know that motherfucker.

Once again, this was how the Economist characterized the American economy on Election Day in 2024.
We had a country on the brink of stunning success, but the Republicans knee-capped it with trade wars and real wars of their own choosing.
