Make no mistake: It's a very short leap from "Medical care is expensive, so we're not going to provide it." to "Housing and feeding people is expensive, so we're just going to kill them."
I’ve been writing Popular Information for 8 years, and this is one of the most important stories I’ve ever published. This is a humanitarian crisis that has gone unreported.
ICE has stopped paying for detainee medical treatment
ICE halted payments in October, and the situation will persist for at least several more months

Establishment Dems responding to the threatened annexation of Greenland by messaging about cost of living issues really don’t understand that to Europeans it looks like they either don’t see this as a crisis or are tacitly in favor of it. 1/x

The entire Alaskan delegation needs to be asked how they feel about the prospect of soldiers potentially being sent from JBER to Minneapolis.
Also, Mary Peltola better have a strong statement on how she feels about it as well.

Fully agree. But, I suspect Russia will continue to have influence operations run through local cutouts.

Révélant ainsi l'ingérence iranienne.

I honestly don’t think these are scams anymore. I think these are ways to bypass certain laws around gifts.

I'm so happy Adams isn't the mayor any more. Mostly for all New Yorkers, but also b/c Adams can finally pursue his true passion (doing scams) without all that pesky time-wasting activity getting in the way (being the mayor)
Eric Adams, former NYC mayor, launched a memecoin (cryptocurrency) today. He marketed it as an “NYC Token” and used media appearances and his social media to promote it.
Within hours, Adams then drained its liquidity, apparently having scammed investors out of $3.4 million—a move called a rug pull.

This is the way and every single Democrat should be on board.
It won't get anywhere before the midterms, but it will make the midterms easier for Democrats to win and easier to take action on these promises once they do.
Be the party of accountability. Own that space, starting now.

FOX: Where’s the protest against the regime that's killing people in the street right now?
Trent: They are doing those today. It’s called the ICE protests
FOX: Are they talking about Iran at the ICE protests?
Trent: No, I think they are talking about the regime that is shooting people in the face

If you know a small bit about it, the Jones Act causes all kinds of logistical bullshit for Americans under the guise of protecting jobs. One of the bigger is shipbuilding. Reflagging the ships doesn’t cut it.
