Even before this we had a construction labor shortage. Estimates put around 25% of the construction industry is undocumented. And not only are they incredibly skilled but they often get fucked over by employers. I wrote about it earlier this year.

"Trump is an outright racist and he appeals to 10s of millions of US citizens who are also outright racists" is both fundamentally, obviously true ... and something that mainstream journalism has decided is impermissible to say.

Got to start talking about "court reform" now. "Republicans in robes", "corruption". Not "packing" or "expanding".

Spotify has laid off thousands in recent years, while reportedly paying artists $0.003 per stream.
Spotify profits rose 28% in Q3. Its CEO is worth $9.8 billion. It's making money off ICE recruitment ads.
Don't you think it's time put a wrap on corporate greed and exploitation?

Olivia . . . you didn't have to put this anecdote in your memoir. You could have just taken that L and kept it moving. You already have more than enough Ls to fill up one volume.

In lieu of elaborate means-tested standards or onerous top-down management, my proposal is simple: no one who is more famous than Druski is allowed to be in TV commercials. Druski's fine, I have no quarrel with him. Puddy from Seinfeld is probably below Druski now, he can stay. Chris Pratt must go.

I'm also surprised that Roger went with a Hong Kong factory (I called the factory today to confirm). If MAGA is about making America great again through reindustrialization, why not use a US factory? Over at O'Connell's, you can find MiUSA tailoring for half of Roger's prices

The problem with ICE is not that it's targeting people who aren't criminals. The problem with ICE is that it's an unaccountable secret deportation police. It cannot be reformed under a better president. It can be made less terrible, but the instrument of repression remains for the next tyrant.
