What too many people don't realize about SNAP and ACA govt money, is that it acts the way farm subsidies do.

It brings money into local infrastructures of food distribution (grocery stores) & medical care (drs, clinics, hosp'ls, etc). These businesses need that income to run and keep prices down.

In October, a recently retired American did something unremarkable…or at least it used to be.

He read about an asylum seeker facing deportation and sent a short email to a Department of Homeland Security attorney.

Yup.
I mean, it's not like a foreign power could seize control via a malleable native-born American.

Wow - did someone sew this out of deconstructed maga hats?

If so, that is amazing and I am very impressed. (If it's ai, I'm pissed at the slop waste of a brilliant idea.)

I hope they didn't purchase the hats, but got them from repentant post-magas, or stole them off the fat heads of some.

They aren't newly hired. They're newly enabled. They feel emboldened to behave the way they always wanted to since the regime revels in cruelty.

Bad idea. ICE is pre-funded by the BBB. Also, CBP is just as bad if not worse and also pre-funded by the BBB. Severing ICE gives away any leverage we have to shut down the rest of DHS. We should be demanding to defund ICE/CBP of its BBB money and shut down ALL of DHS if they don’t agree.

Melania is a film directed by a man who’s in the Epstein files about a woman who’s in the Epstein files who’s married to a man in the Epstein files. The gall. 🤬

waiting, troubled agencies simply waiting for an ambitious would-be authoritarian.

ICE is an agency whose recruiting and training standards are so low that other federal law enforcement agents say pejoratively that ICE is “hired by the pound, from the pound.”

I think all these men who benefited financially from proximity to Epstein POST CONVICTION OF PEDOPHILIA should have to pay reparations to his victims, whether they abused women and children or not.

They all knew what was going on, and help legitimize him with their association.

DHS is buying massive warehouses across the country designed to imprison ~100K people.

Documents show they include mass shower facilities, incinerators for medical and death waste, hardened structures, defensive barriers, and eight-foot walls.

What does that sound like to you?

I think it’s time we take weapons of war away from law enforcement.

No more tactical armor, chemical irritants, crowd control weapons, or high capacity guns.

Do it with a night stick and your charm.
