  We keep saying "Defund ICE", but the deployment of CPB in Minneapolis (well out of their usual purview) has been an integral part of the problem there.

    Bad idea. ICE is pre-funded by the BBB. Also, CBP is just as bad if not worse and also pre-funded by the BBB. Severing ICE gives away any leverage we have to shut down the rest of DHS. We should be demanding to defund ICE/CBP of its BBB money and shut down ALL of DHS if they don’t agree.

  Not even complaining that some white person deserved a particular prize over her. Just acknowledging her achievement. These people can't feel good about themselves without erasing others, thus proving their inherent mediocrity.

    No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition. Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...
    

    Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology

    She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

  Pandering loses readers/viewers without gaining any new ones, because the MAGA crowd already knows what media they trust. They've been told for years which ones to DIStrust, and a hard pivot in coverage is not going to change that.
