Lisa Gets PolitikGood morning.
Apologies for the vivid imagery this early in the morning, but I figured we could all use a pick me up.
What a world that this is, indeed, good news.

#GargleMyBalls * Hashtag suggested by @Brad_Rosenheim
Dr Neenah Estrella-Luna@lisagetspolitik This is almost 5 years old but definitely still a pick me up. Thank you.
anlomedadGee, thank you! It really is from January 2020 that #Greyhound announced to stop letting ICE agents on their buses.
But maybe, this decision still holds, no?

@anlomedad @starluna Thanks for the date! Just goes to show we've been avoiding a real solution on immigration for far too long.
Jay 🇺🇦@lisagetspolitik Yes, the imagery of an ICE agent is indeed disturbing.
@lisagetspolitik (the imagery of an ICE agent gargling a bus driver's balls is pretty OK though)
Michael Porter@lisagetspolitik Adding this to my vocabulary 😄
Rachel Greenham@lisagetspolitik @lisamelton the Gray Lady may have abandoned reason for madness, but the Grey Hound remains faithful…
Lady Errant@lisagetspolitik #seattle bus drivers are the best

No matter how bad things get, it's the small endless defiance which destroys tyranny
@Fontasia It's interesting, you could interpret it as a command to gargle your *own* balls, or alternatively, gargle the bus driver's balls.
Ah, languange.
@lisagetspolitik Do we know anything about the bus driver's balls? And whether or not the ICE agent accepted the offer?
Wulfy—Speaker to the machinesEvery human can be a castle against the fascists.
Brad Rosenheim@lisagetspolitik For some of the kids on the bus, if English was a second language they were learning, I hope "Gargle my balls!" becomes a common greeting when they meet ICE agents.
Might as well ensure that there is a hashtag for it too.
Zeba S. Saraf@lisagetspolitik Haha! This reminds me why I adore average blue collar Americans, compared to the greedy people who run your country.

Mirishuli@lisagetspolitik I so needed this laugh! Thank you for bringing it here!
@MiriShuli Yes, we need more laughter, I am doing my best to share humor when I can. Here is another one, from a Reddit thread about Trump's threat to annex Greenland.

LukefromDC@lisagetspolitik @Brad_Rosenheim I probably would have told him to gargle my PISS.
