Happy Taco Tuesday everyone. I am finally on the road to recovery pending tests that I underwent yesterday. I am home from the hospital (for the 3rd time, 18 total days) and am getting stronger. It turns out statins are not for everyone, and I had a really bad reaction to them.
Anyway, I am back

Israeli-American billionaires Michael and Gil Dezer’s Gulfstream IV plane flew 10 migrants to the tiny African kingdom of Eswatini, flight data shows. The Dezers made billions on Trump-branded condos. Now they're cleaning up with no-bid contracts to fly prisoners to foreign concentration camps.

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

It was great working with Zeteo’s editors and rigorous fact-checker.

And I’m most grateful they let me say this in the last graf, something I’ve been try to get at with these ICE flights for awhile.

The disparity between the luxurious aircraft and its shackled, vilified passengers must have been quite a sight, but they are not unrelated. Corrupt officials transferring state funds to personal accounts, governments with empty treasuries and desperate citizens, luxury highrises, the criminalization of the unhoused and undocumented, billions spent on political campaign pageantry, aiding genocide from a faraway ballroom and calling it "charity," tax breaks for flying masked agents and nameless prisoners under cover of darkness - all are the spoils of oligarchy.

I don't know, but I think that MAGA leadership and their oligarch backers are waiting until they have secured a dictatorship, and then they will install someone who is better equipped to manage international relationships as well as crush domestic opposition. Trump is mentally unfit and they know it

Always remember, whether you see violence and cruelty from ICE, It is part of the plan. Of course they are violating local law, and common decency.

They’ve long had it out for Portland.

This is a clip from my now-infamous 2020 conversation with the Portland DA

This has always been the goal of the MAGA Death Cult. They may get the power they want using tRump as their figurehead, but once the power is concentrated in the "executive" branch, he becomes disposable. Once they have control, look for a change of leadership

For the record, mockery is a perfectly effective form of resistance against ICE.

They want us to be violent so they can put pictures on Facebook and justify a forceful response with their base. They can't do that with an inflatable unicorn costume.
