BREAKING: 21-year-old protester, Kaden Rummler, was shot point-blank in the face by ICE. he just spoke about how he’s blind for life and almost died:
“I will be blind for life. I have fractures in my skull that they can't fix. They pulled a piece of plastic the size of a nickel out of my eye. I had shards of metal, glass, and plastic behind my eye and in my skull. They said it was a miracle I survived.”
What the hell is wrong with these people?
GoFundMe for Kaden Rummler, the young trans man blinded by ICE agents this week.

to give a fuller, more honest response here, i do really think that for many people (myself included) 2016 felt like the last time the world seemed relatively "normal." to explain with a personal example, as a 31 year old in january 2026, i have voted in a total of four us presidential elections. of those four, three of them have had donald trump running as the republican nominee. and for many fully grown adults now, donald trump has been a dominating presence throughout their entire adult political life. if you are currently 30 years old or just turned 31, there has never been a presidential ballot without his name on it since you were able to start voting.
i think we sometimes forget now how unbelievably ridiculous and far-fetched it seemed pre-2016 that donald trump would get anywhere near political power, much less win two terms as president and bend the entire GOP (and frankly all of american politics) to his will. the idea that someone like him, as crude, vulgar, and unhinged as he is, could be taken seriously as US president was inconceivable. i think 2016 was a real "through the looking glass" moment for a lot of people and now, 10 years on, it's hard not to look back and see what a complete fucking trainwreck this has all led to.
