BlackRock, KKR, Vanguard, State Street, Cerberus, Goldman, Morgan Stanley, CoreCivic, and GEO Group all partnered w/Trump’s #DHS to build an eviction > detention > asset-flipping pipeline—profiteering as #ICE clears buildings, every mass deportation action triggering waves of rental asset turnover.

The Economics of Donald Trump’s Mass Deportations

Donald Trump’s mass deportations will do little to improve the lives of American workers. But he is fueling a deportation-industrial complex that funnels billions of dollars into the hands of private ...

Those labelers (and blocklists) are uniformly flawed. The Blacksky labeler does similar to 100% Black-positive posts. I unsubscribed to all labelers.

IDK a way around it — maybe someone else more savvy might have tips 🤷🏽

Not only did Trump lose, he lost to a (very deserving) Spanish-speaking WOMAN. Gifted article about his shameless campaign:

The 11th-Hour Campaign to Land Trump a Nobel Peace Prize

A bid was mounted to persuade the Nobel committee to make Trump the fifth American president to receive the honor.

Dear oh dear....did Donald "Pol Pot" Trump really think he qualifies for the Nobel Peace Prize?!? Every woman who was a child when he raped them should write to the Nobel Committee to ensure they know who he really is.

US federal courts clearly stated that both President Trump and the Department of Homeland Security’s claims do not meet credibility standards and that their deployment justifications were found unlawful and factually unsupported.

Jon Seidel @jonseidel.bsky.social · 1d

For Judge April Perry, it came down to credibility.

The Trump administration's "perception of events" in Chicago "are simply unreliable," she said. So she blocked Nat Guard deployment in IL, for now.

UPDATED from @chicago.suntimes.com w/ @tinasfon.bsky.social: chicago.suntimes.com/donald-trump...

Federal judge hits Trump administration credibility in siding with city and state against National Guard deployment

Judge's order bars 'federalization and deployment of the National Guard of the United States within Illinois' for at least 14 days.

Faye trip insurance policies also provide reimbursement for trip cancellations, interruptions, travel delays, lost luggage, and replacing lost passports or credit cards.

Priced by the day — both service and claims/reimbursement are so easy.

I wouldn’t travel to the US without something like that.

Because US health insurance doesn’t always cover you out of the country, I’ve bought Faye trip (withfaye.com) comprehensive travel insurance that covers up to $250,000 for emergency medical (illness, injury, some dental), and up to $500,000 for emergency medical evacuation or repatriation.

Faye - Whole-Trip Travel Insurance

Whole-trip travel insurance that goes the distance to cover you at every step of your journey with incredible coverage, 24/7 travel care, instant claims processing and more.

It’s Trump’s bait for a “false flag” — right‑wing or gov actors stage violence so opponents get blamed. He’s said more than once his red line to cry insurrection is if any people die.

And make no mistake: this is on Trump and the GOP. Speakers Mike Johnson and John Thune could stop him—they just won’t. The Republican Party chooses cruelty. Vote for any Republican anywhere, and you’re part of it.

AN AGENT FOR MURDER: This felon is not worthy of a Peace Prize. A man who wages war on his own people, who bribes world leaders for accolades, and who demands the glory of peace while spreading death — is the opposite of what a Nobel stands for.

AN AGENT FOR MURDER

You can’t bribe your way to peace. You earn it through humanity and Trump has none

The President seems unwell. From his physical symptoms to his visible cognitive decline, the American people deserve clear answers about his ability to serve. I’ve formally called on the White House Physician to provide transparency and the truth about President Trump’s health.
