actually I remember that a lot of us felt very, very alarmed by the choice of the word “homeland” and all its sinister implications
DHS was originally conceived in the interest of unity and harmony — and the phrase "homeland security" was originally meant to be reassuring. n.pr/4nOx8KP
'Homeland Security' has spawned political insecurity since DHS was born

Much like "social media victims" of today, distraught parents across the country repeatedly declared novels were the root cause of children taking their own lives.
Here in one clip from 1897 the cause of suicide was declared as reading "sentimental novels." The title: Novel Reading Causes Suicide

Hey @schumer.senate.gov you can't fix this with training you fucking moron. Get out of leadership and let somone with a clue and a spine lead. @warren.senate.gov step the fuck up already.
In a 5-minute phone call to dispatchers, a federal immigration officer requests police backup last October to help with a kid tailing him on a motorized bicycle. "I need someone here now, or else I'm going to have to shoot this kid," the officer said on a recording of the call obtained by OPB.
Armed ICE officer in Portland called 911 during confrontation: ‘I’m going to have to shoot this kid.’
Dispatch records and a police report obtained by OPB describe the previously unreported incident last fall.

The #Mariners' Josh Naylor provided a nice moment Tuesday by greeting history-making umpire Jen Pawol before stepping into the box.

More than 200,000 women are reported missing in the us each year. So why is CBS devoting so much airtime to Guthrie’s mother’s story?

For no reason at all I'm thinking of the MAGA guy in my town who wanted to change our zoning by-laws to "preserve the town's demographics."

Car dependency is expensive, yes, but living in a walkable/bikeable area well served by public transit is *also* really expensive. In order to free people from the financial stranglehold of car dependency, we need to make the alternative more affordable.

I know that intersection well. There’s a library a block away.
Coincidentally, I have another meeting this week about finally creating a bike/pedestrian committee in town. And the crosswalk where my wife nearly got hit is right outside our town hall. It's a horrendous intersection. She was crossing at the bottom of the screen where there is a right turn lane.

Went to Aldi today for the first time. Somewhat underwhelming experience. Shopping cart BS was expected, but no one could get the quarter to unlock carriage without insane amount of jiggling. Also, why don’t they put a change machine in the lobby in case someone didn’t have quarters?

Folks, this is why slow moving storms near Haiti and the DR can be so very dangerous. The mountains force air to rise rapidly and squeeze out copious moisture. The runoff often inundates villages. If this track verifies, it’s extremely dangerous. #Melissa

Would never expect the USTA to acknowledge any protest but them going and asking broadcasters to censor it is a new low.
I’ve heard multiple reports of the USOPC telling NGBs to be scared of this administration to get them in line, and this seems to fit that pattern.
