Homan responds: <unintelligible garbled lie>
O'Keefe to Homan: "2 agents now on leave bc video evidence shows sworn testimony appears to be untruthful. DHS initially said officer who shot the migrant was being ambushed. Combine that w/ 2 deadly shootings & a Chicago incident where evidence contradicted govt - does this undermine trust in ICE?"

Note the framing here:

It’s “Democrats have refused to fund” DHS and not “Republicans refused to prohibit face masks” or “the two parties could not agree on how to reform the agency.”

On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.

The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.

But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

In terms of what cures are being lost:

- Epstein-Barr virus is perhaps the major trigger for multiple sclerosis
- herpes simplex virus causes cold sores, genital herpes, infections in babies, deadly meningitis
- shingles virus causes an intensely painful disease

Homan's lies aren't worth the cunty lil reading glasses he wears while making them. But there are only so many times you can admit you're a bitch before the looksmaxing base realizes you're a bitch.
Considering the previous "draw down" was purely symbolic, I'm skeptical about what this will functionally mean. That said, for the sake of the people of Minnesota, I pray it's true and that this campaign of terror will soon be over.

If you're gonna run an unconstitutional dragnet to catch a dozen rapists and pedophiles, seems like hitting CPAC or Mar-a-Lago would give you a much better hit rate.

LUTNICK: I did have lunch w/ him as I was on a boat going across on a family vacation. My wife was with me as were my 4 children and nannies. We had lunch on the island. That's true. For an hour. We left with all of my children

If these guys were as good at their job as they claim, they wouldn’t have anything to fear from Central American cartels in America. But somehow their tactics of using 5 year olds as bait and scooping up Hmong elders just isn’t working out. Maybe killing ppl in detention centers will help.
RON JOHNSON: In Central America, if you become a police chief, the drug cartels send you a DVD w/ a video of your family going to church or school...that's what ICE agents are facing

SORKIN: But these people are allowed to protest

As @ifbookspod.bsky.social , it's the One Book / One Grift theory.
To be very clear, that lady in the NYT article is not making any money with her hundreds of AI slop books.

She makes money by *convincing people* she makes money that way and getting them to pay her to teach them how to do it.

It's an evolved MLM, and the NYT is helping market it.
