“We’re broken and we’re being poached by ICE...
People are leaving in droves"

Corrections officers are jumping ship for more lucrative jobs at ICE, which offers $50,000 starting bonuses, tuition reimbursement & better pay than the prison system

As Federal Prisons Run Low on Food and Toilet Paper, Corrections Officers Leave in Droves for ICE
Many of the problems the agency is facing now are not new, but staff and prisoners fear an exodus of officers could make life behind bars even worse.

Having my annual Seasons Greetings viewing. I love Ayckbourn so but it’s depressing the whole world is Uncle Harvey now.

Amtrak's restored service between New Orleans and Mobile has far exceeded initial ridership projections since launch in August, just like what happened when the Borealis service was established between Chicago and St. Paul last year.

Amtrak is currently expecting to double the first-year estimates.
Gulf Coast train line is among the most successful in Amtrak’s history. See ridership totals.
The route’s early success has raised hope for some advocates of regional train travel. See how many people have taken the train since its launch in August.

Which is also what we desperately needed in 2021
Early 2029 will be like a post-conflict society starting a campaign of de-Trumpification.
Could not be more contrary to American traditions. A gold-bedecked White House with a massive gilded ballroom and a government-created personality cult around the president complete with giant banners of his face on government buildings and official celebrations of his birthday.

feds launched multiple gas canisters as they made their exit from elgin, leaving community members scrambling and choking.

unclear if they abducted their target.

this is the first time feds have used gas since the dismissal of a federal lawsuit which had sought to constrain agents’ use of force.

Talk about fraud: what an evil menace. “For some, the calls are unrelenting, rendering their phones almost unusable.”

The FTC and the Better Business Bureau get thousands of reports but apparently nothing can be done about it?

see the thing about them all being the worst people in the world is that even when one of them gets killed they can't create a proper cult of martyrdom around him because the others get jealous he's getting all the attention.
I'm not quite sure where to start

i think to understand the meaning of the birthright citizenship clause to the framers of the 14th amendment, you have to understand significance of dred scott to the civil war republican party. dred scott wasn't just a bad ruling, it was understood as a rejection of the declaration itself.
