Thanks for your coverage and analysis. And, re: ICE buying warehouses---when people are being warehoused, they are warehoused in Concentration Camps. Period. And the majority of those people will be Black and Brown. I'm glad to hear that some communities pushing back and banning them.
Excellent post as always. Thank you for your hard work and for your fortitude, that you must have, to provide coverage and analysis of all the huge amounts horrible news you digest make your posts.
It's all worthy of comment, but I'm just going to put my 2 cents in on Tucker Carlson. I was happy to see your warning about being sucked in by him. He is the same as ever, no matter whether he dumps on Trump about certain issues or not. He and his brother, Buckley (even worse than Tucker if you can imagine that), are not changed from being the racists, misogynists, and white supremacists they have always been.
And yeah, I should’ve addressed the Tucker part too.
You’re exactly right. Listen, Tucker breaking with Trump on Iran doesn’t mean he’s changed. It means one part of the machine is fighting another part. A wolf can apologize for leading you into one forest and still be a wolf.
You're very welcome. I don't consume as much news as you must do, but it's still stressful to me. So, I do little things now and then to lighten up my spirits. Like thinking about a juvenile prank to play on Trump and his thugs. For instance, a televised group pantsing of Trump, Steven Miller, Hegseth, Vance, Lutnick, Bessent, Patel, and Todd Blanche. Of course, that might be as nauseating as it is funny.

Exactly Dian. “Warehouse” is the sanitized word. Concentration camp is the moral word.
This was a lot to cover.
Thanks for doing this work.

Thank you. That means a lot, because the hard part is exactly that: taking in all this horror and still trying to make it legible without going numb.
I’m so grateful you see the labor behind it Stephany.
