Canadian deputy mayor nails Trump as the cause for $4.5 billion loss in US tourism

Donald Trump ran for President saying he would lower costs “on day one.”
What's happened since he took office a year ago? Costs are up, up, up.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social Sir, the sane voters of the United States want ICE abolished. There is no “clean up the agency,” that can fix what has happened. They murdered people, abused and assaulted immigrants and citizens. It’s too late to fix. It must be abolished.

41 DUI arrests by a Tennessee trooper. All dismissed. 22 drivers were completely sober.
He “resigned”. No explanation. No accountability. No apology. His personnel file doesn’t even mention the cases.
Police departments shouldn’t be in the business of shielding corrupt officers.

Republicans want to force births.
With what we now know of the GOP protecting pedos with impunity, one can only assume that they want more babies to later rape, abuse & torture. Of course, this is my own opinion, but what other conclusion can be drawn?

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.
