Fire Cuffari

This Trump guy should be gone

A nearly two-year investigation into allegations of misconduct by the Department of Homeland Security Inspector General Joseph Cuffari expanded this week to include his role in missing Secret Service text messages from the insurrection.https://t.co/unSW9USQSc

This thread contains a searing critique of DHS IG Cuffari’s approach to overseeing deaths and inadequate medical care of people under ICE and CBP custody https://t.co/zos1UI2Mow

Cuffari's Office of Counsel – under Jim Read – is among the key parts of the watchdog office that esp. fear reprisal & believe top leaders do not have maintain high levels of integrity & honesty. It's been hemorrhaging attorneys, reported @cgrisales https://t.co/fDpvgBWm1r

.@DHSOIG Cuffari and top aides are suing @cigiegov in federal court for “harassing” them by investigating them. Dozens of complaints of misconduct have come in to investigators. @POTUS won’t act until presented with a report https://t.co/zjN2GAWO1f
— Lisa Rein (@Reinlwapo) April 6, 2023

IG Cuffari – who just yesterday sued the @cigiegov for allegedly using unconstitutional and unlawful power to harass him and his staff with investigations into complaints against him – found no systemic issues in the ICE detention system that caused deaths.

He didn’t look. pic.twitter.com/3m8MnfDJmJ

Great tweet comparing owning Nazi items to porn

This tweet on buying porn reminded me of this great scene from Bananas (1971).

".001% of their collection" like it's a copy of Hustler you bought with 10 other magazines, so the clerk doesn't think you just wanted the porn.

How much other shit do you need to own to dilute having ADOLF HITLER'S MONOGRAMMED TEA SET ???

AI pictures of the pope

Pope Francis wearing a puffer jacket inspired by Balenciaga. Turning the tables in a nightclub. Sharing a beer at Burning Man.

Many public figures have popped up in AI-generated pictures recently, but images with the pontiff have made the biggest splash. https://t.co/j9HGMscVVW

The media gave Trump free publicity (as usual)

Was it necessary for the media to give Trump free publicity for the t-shirt he is selling after the arraignment? I sarcastically replied to several tweets and asked if they were going to give comparable publicity to Democratic Party merchandise.

Are you going to give free publicity to Democratic Party merchandise too?

Are you going to show merchandise available from the Democratic Party too? I’m tired of the media giving Trump free publicity!

Tweet with link to MLB’s Minor League Ballpark Guide

Have you seen minor league baseball? If not, I recommend it. The level of play isn’t as good as the majors but you will see players that will play in the majors. The games aren’t crowded and tickets are inexpensive.

Of the current parks, I have been to Wilmington, Lehigh Valley, Reading, Scranton Wilkes-Barre and Aberdeen.

We did it! (A thread)

After nearly two years, involving the work of dozens of people, the Minor League Ballpark Guide project is complete!

An interactive road trip planning tool featuring searchable maps and in-depth write-ups of every MiLB park:

Film: In This Our Life

In This Our Life (1942) is not nearly as well known as it should be. It has never been on Blu-ray and was on DVD in a Bette Davis box set. It’s an excellent film and Davis is great in it.

Happy birthday to Bette Davis, shown here IN THIS OUR LIFE (John Huston, 1942). Here's a 2009 tribute to the film—and Davis's superb, fearless work in it—by the late Stanley Crouch: https://t.co/QqVU28geYN pic.twitter.com/NBcLQzh7PG

In This Our Life is an underrated gem. It was much admired by James Baldwin as well. Definitely one of the best films about race from the classic Hollywood era, and it features one of Bette's strongest, most uncompromisingly honest performances. https://t.co/KrkaHgdcPP

Tweets on Peeps

A proposed bill in the California Legislature would ban five chemicals found in some of the most popular U.S. candies: Skittles, Starburst and an Easter favorite — Peeps. https://t.co/Li1gZKN5bS

The Peeps factory is a true Willy Wonka experience. Complete with marshmallow cooks and sugarcoated conveyor belts, the Pennsylvania facility makes 5.5 million Peeps on an average day. Here's a look inside. https://t.co/1LioG0Ki3c pic.twitter.com/LPnytUkCBV
