- Reposted by TheNumbersTzarDemocrats should demand every sitting Republican decry this attack and explicitly denounce it, and then censure all of them when they don’t do it. Act like normal decent humans defending your colleague.
- Reposted by TheNumbersTzarIt's also further demoralizing to the ICE/CBP terror cops because it shows them that the top guys will not have their back if they go hardcore enough, which I'm sure they understood to be the whole project here
- it is both true that firing bovino doesn’t change a whole lot in terms of policy and also true that they have put a lot of money, time and effort into trying to make him the “never back down, fuck you, we own this place” face of the operation, and unceremoniously kicking him to the curb is a retreat
- Reposted by TheNumbersTzarRT if you like fat asses and want to see ICE destroyed.
- Clear indication that opposition strategies are working.
- BREAKING Greg Bovino has been removed as Border Patrol "commander at large" and will return to El Centro Calif, where he is expected to retire soon. A stunning turnaround after Pretti killing. Bovino's traveling blue city crackdown is over www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

- This series brings me so much joy. Every single time I see a new one I say out loud, “Oh, them Trump boys are at it again…”
- Reposted by TheNumbersTzarI am not being snarky. I need my colleagues who wrote on covid school lockdowns to engage with this. To be as loud as they have been about prior "learning loss." Hell, you can cite Tom & Mark's AERJ paper so you feel better that there's some econ somewhere in your argument.

- NEW: @kylebazgo.bsky.social and @tristanl.ee have identified the leader of neo-Nazi group Heartland Active Club as 32-year-old Jacob Daniel Jones from Olathe, KS. Under the alias “Prairie Nationalist”, Jones has praised neo-Nazi mass shooter Anders Breivik and is “training for a war”.
- Slightly different interpretation, CEOs can be replaced by AI, but actual workers can’t.
- The disconnect between management and employee on AI usage is big. At the same time, CEOs are reporting they aren't seeing any revenue growth from AI. 🤷 www.wsj.com/lifestyle/wo...
- I think we need to have a continuous stream of rumors that it’s happened. Force him to make regular tv appearances to prove that it hasn’t. Wear him down. Make it happen.

- Her work in mathematics and GPS is astounding, but she also completed a PHD at age 70?!? She retired, then two years later decided, “Nah, I’m not done”.
- The Nurgling has a new obsession. Soup. What does he cook in his play kitchen? Soup. Stacking toys? “This my soup.” Dropped a stack of toys? “Oh no, my soup!” Last night going to bed: “We shouldn’t have soup in bed. “ “No! I NEED my soup.”

- Never argue with someone that John Brown would have shot.
- Felons should be allowed to vote and some people are too dangerous to be allowed to run for public office. Both things can be true at the same time.
- I suspect a lot of wealthy people with kids in private schools don’t grasp that regular US citizens with kids in public schools are constantly terrorized by gun violence. Every day. School shootings in the news. Intruder drills. We don’t have to live like this.
- This is how I found out that Scott Adams had died.

- Reposted by TheNumbersTzarI keep seeing people asking why the police aren't arresting ICE or protecting people from ICE and I desperately need you to understand that the police aren't protecting you from ICE because protecting YOU is not and never has been their function and that's why we need to defund them.
- Slightly Diminish a Game: World of Fistfights
- I don’t think this headline is going to have the intended effect. I’ll give it to the end of the week before my retirement age mother has purchased ‘wine mom gang’ merch off of Etsy.
- The world is shit, but my toddler has peed in the toilet at daycare two days in a row. There’s at least a little hope left in me.
