I literally have an Americanized citizen that was originally from Mexico using threats of deportation to keep anyone from testifying against him and he has wracked up 5 or 6 cases now.
He literally told the cops, after he nearly beat someone to death, why aren't you deporting him? He's a "wetback"

Don't lull. It doesn't matter what random people tell you. Just because you have a deadline doesn't mean you have to wait until the last minute to release. I do not like the relax bullshit. People have been SCREAMING for the files for months. Deliver them now. They should've been ready. You knew it.
If you’re wondering why there’s a lull in the Epstein files discussion, it’s because the law that just passed gave Pamela Jo 30 days to release the files. So we’re all waiting to see how she tries to sabotage it. The discussion will pick back up in earnest on December 20th.

Chickens aren't even my favorite part. I like the pigs! And I also like the bunnies. If you're into animals.
But quilting and the cooking competitions are pretty awesome if you ask me.

The also straight up lied to the faces of all of our Sheriffs in Oregon. 32 of the 36 sheriffs were there and they straight up lied about what was happening in our own communities.
I’ve heard many stories of how ICE is not following the law or honoring due process.
I'm at the Tacoma ICE facility to come see for myself and hold ICE accountable. From my visit, it was abundantly clear that ICE is lying.

I don't know about this phrasing sometimes. If the evidence isn't credible, then it's not evidence. So the statement should be there is no evidence. Period.

For real! Deporting people who represented and defended this country with explicit promises of fast tracked citizen is bullshit.
They defended this country. They raised their hand and they swore to uphold the Constitution, and then they come home and we say, ‘Oh, thanks for your service, get out.’ It’s wrong.”

I haven't had that happen here, but in a county that basically never had people falsely posing as cops, we've had people falsely posing as cops this last year (still just two, but that's up from zero!). Anyway, one was a registered sex offender taking to a 12 and a 13 to girls.

Yeah. This is crazy. But it's literally what happens with publicly owned jails and prisons too. Don't you ever forget that
This is insane!!!
Private prison companies have documented cases of suing states for failing to meet their contractually guaranteed minimum bed occupancy quotas (often 80–100% full), or else the state must pay for the empty beds.

The entire right-wing propaganda machine came after Zohran Mamdani.
The president and his allies came after him.
Democratic leaders, by and large, did not have his back until the last minute.
He still won, turning out historic numbers and inspiring young voters.
His politics can win anywhere.

There was an active federal investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s alleged co-conspirators all the way until September, 2025 — and then it abruptly stopped.
Why did the DOJ spend years building it, only to have it suddenly transferred to DOJ headquarters and halted?
