There appears to be a lack of "very fine people" who want to join ICE.
About the ICE agent who fatally shot a man on New Year’s Eve while off-duty:

A court document "says the ICE agent allegedly whipped his sons with a belt, made homophobic slurs and racist remarks about Black and Latino people and brought a gun to a youth sports game."

I spoke with Imara Jones, the founder and CEO of TransLash, to discuss Trump’s use of “fight like hell” while discussing trans athletes at a Republican retreat this morning.

She says it’s no coincidence that he mentions trans people frequently. It’s foundational.

If you're writing 1800 words about how we failed to account for January 6 and DON'T mention SCOTUS (particularly if you're comparing with Brazil) or impeachment, you're simply doing propaganda for the GOP.

Big: Wyoming supreme court just struck down abortion ban.

And get this: The reason is a constitutional amendment codifying a right to make health care decisions... passed in 2012 by conservatives who thought it'd screw Obamacare!

Quite the backfire. We explained this lawsuit a few years back:

This “journalist” and loser of the Pulitzer prize thinks it’s great that the poor, working poor families, single parents and grandma and grandpa just suck it up and pay extra to file their taxes. Files under “Free is for suckers”.
This was one of the best things government has done in a while:
The I.R.S. is shutting down its free online system for filing tax returns, a program that the Biden administration introduced last year and that users gave high marks.

Why, because you can afford to file through your accountant? This disproportionately affects low income households, single family households, seniors and young people, but you know that and as long as you get by why not take away the ladder for the rest of your countrymen. The losers. Pathetic.

I teach my students a concept called Group Threat Theory, outlining how members of a larger group feel threatened when a smaller group in their number grows in power. This explains that unfortunate NYTimes story better than anything. But this comes close: https://loom.ly/UZ_eOdM
