And like always, Trump goes all in with ugly partisanship, divisiveness & hate. Trump uses a political assassination to attack half the country. He quite literally is the divider in chief. Such a shame. He’s such a danger to this country. I so worry about where this is heading.

It is criminal what the US has done to its children through car culture. They go from supervised activity to car to supervised activity to car ... no wayfinding, no autonomy, no agency, no risk, no sense of adventure or surprise. We're raising helpless, emotionally fragile computer kids.

ICE agents in tactical gear chase down and tackle a U.S. citizen in L.A. After realizing he’s American, they just slink away. Their only explanation: “Why were you running?” Probably because two masked men with guns were trying to snatch him.
