LOL. The classic way of admitting mistakes were made without actually taking responsibility for them.

Hmmm, If people start treating Miller as if he's the one in charge, Drumpf isn't going to like that at all. Let's see how well the "I was just following orders" defense works this time. Although sounds like it's hearsay in this example.

I read it as "it's okay for me to support a regime that protects pedophiles and persecutes immigrants from certain places, because an ancestor of mine was a Holocaust survivor." Which I'm guessing is part of your point.

For sure.

I'm sure she's very 'concerned.'

And on the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, no less.

I will say, though, that while Maine is mostly white-there are parts of it that do have a fair number of immigrants (such as Portland/Lewiston, the area being targeted). And the cruelty is just as bad as in the larger metro areas. It has the oh so cute title of Operation Catch of the Day. It all needs to stop. Now.

You're exactly right. And I hope that Maine chooses her as a Senator.

And ICE is still in Maine. It's not as high profile, but still notable that people are reaching out to protect their neighbors. If this is because the focus is about to turn to another city, and I've heard talk of it going to Philadelphia and Springfield, OH, then it's not really a win.

Oh

I'm only seeing that it's reported that he has been demoted. Even if true, changing him out for somebody else doesn't mean things will get better in MN. We'll have to wait and see.

Yup, clearly it has nothing to do with the way in which the current regime is doing things. Nope, not at all. (incidentally there have always been people working to help immigrants gain legal status, especially those brought here as children, and many have argued for decades to find ways to find a pathway to citizenship to those who had been contributing to their communities for decades)

She has kept a very low profile for sure... however her husband is laying out plans for post-war Gaza developments, with T's backing.

Buses and the Green Line are often held up by wild turkeys in Boston.

Agree. It's going to take a while to even build up systems that were in place for decades that have suffered from underfunding, deferred maintenance, and a feeling among some that transit is a form of welfare.

Sorry about that! I do like the song, but I have to be in a certain mood. Also thanks to 'contract disputes' FiOS is currently not airing channels like METV that have helped keep me sane during my short term disability. I never thought I'd say this, but I wish Xfinity were available in my building. If nothing else, Xfinity Mobile was half the cost of the supposedly 'discounted' Verizon.

I accidentally clicked on a reel for 'is this the saddest song from the 70s?' I now have the song "Alone Again, Naturally" running through my head.

Unfortunately that has happened often enough that I could see it happening again. And it will take less time than that for 'concerned' MAGA politicians to fall back in line. I really hope I'm wrong this time.

One of my nieces is in the Minnesota Guard, though I think she's currently training in Puerto Rico. I'm proud and scared at the same time.

I wonder how long it will be before he falls back in line? Hopefully never but we've seen this kind of talk before.

According to them you are now a member of "The Far Left."

With politicians such as Graham and Rubio close behind.

I should probably stop watching WWII documentaries for a while.... the parallels between then and now are too much. Even the trench coats worn by Nazis like Himmler are making an appearance.

I'm seeing this picture next to a picture of a Nazi doing the same thing. It's even more powerful.

Gee, big surprise.
