Much hotter-than-expected US PPI inflation:
Monthly PPI inflation for December jumped to 0.5%, significantly above the consensus forecast of 0.2%.
Core PPI was even more startling, coming in at 0.7% monthly and pushing the annual core measure to 3.3% (well above the anticipated 2.9%).

Inside a Minnesota immigration court, few ‘worst of the worst’
Over two hours, four cases revealed late paperwork, expired visas and bureaucratic tangles — not the violent criminals officials regularly cite.

America has never tolerated a masked, armed, secret police.

We need to get rid of all players that created one in ICE: Miller, Noem, Homan, Bovino & Blanche (who also slow walked the Epstein files).

Blaming Bovino alone doesn’t cut it. Miller on down need to go.

I know all eyes are on Minneapolis, but there's a fast-approaching nightmare in Springfield, Ohio.

Trump is revoking protected status for tens of thousands of Haitians living there on Feb. 3.

Reportedly, on Feb. 4, 1000 ICE agents are arriving to remove this population. Ethnic cleansing.

So many international students struggling mentally.

Teaching and tutoring for peanuts, couldn't go home last summer, couldn't go home over Christmas.

Some spend hours with US students that might not finish without them.

Terrified they might be grabbed by ICE. Some have been.

Pray for them!

If Democrats haven't announced their proposal for the Donald Trump No Guns in Public bill by the end of the day, they're missing an easy shot
Trump: "With that being said, you can't have guns. You can't walk in with guns. You just can't. You can't walk in with guns. You can't do that. But it's just a very unfortunate incident."

MURDER.
Here comes the video analysis:
- Pretti was shot 10 times after they took his gun
- He never "brandished" the gun, assaulted an agent
- They repeatedly pepper sprayed him at point blank range and beat him when he was down
- He was attempting to help a woman who an agent threw to the ground (battery)

Saw article. Don't do X.

ICE agents need to know that AI can remove their masks and glasses - especially those fearing repercussions

Result is better than a "police sketch" though not exact

Is admissible in court

Publicly available video sufficient for prosecutions

Predatory delay on climate action is a central engine driving the fascism we see around us today.

When given the choice of accepting the evidence and shifting to a low-carbon economy, or undermining democracy itself, the Carbon Lobby went all in on Trump.

GOOD NEWS!

Never need to listen to Trump.

He was borderline incoherent in 1st term.

Really enjoyed not thinking about him during Biden years.

But he's POTUS, so now have to listen to him.

EXCEPT WE DON'T!

He is incoherent. JUST WAIT FOR THE TRANSLATION.

WH or GOP does so almost immediately!

WE HAVE DEVELOPED SOLUTIONS!

Extensions of the ACA to UHC that saves up to $150B annually.

Read here:

But we're not ready for them

Restoring ACA subsidies is really the only option in our current political environment.
