My understanding is that ICE doesn’t require a warrant to arrest someone in public, although they need one to enter a residence.

Looks like nearly $1000/subscriber rather than nearly $1M, but it’s still ~15 times the annual subscription rate, which seems like a lot.

I don’t fault the candidates themselves raising whatever they can, but I do fault the donors for not spreading the money around to other candidates.

Is it our government’s position that if an American commits a drug crime with a cartel (or they allege that) it can just kill that person without trial even if not an immediate threat? I am genuinely trying to understand what if any lines they believe exist. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/02/u...

Yeah, I suspect that they were labeled an untrustworthy source due to bias and/or quality and the poster didn’t realize that they are left wing. I haven’t looked at their site in a long time either but it doesn’t look like they are conservative-friendly:

friends with large accounts, I'm not going to pester you personally but just generally speaking, I would sure appreciate a signal boost on this thing. We seem to have leveled out, and since this is a one-shot (won't be in bookstores) I'd like to get it out there as much as possible.
