Be forewarned, I am deeply unserious about a great many things.

YES! LET THEM KNOW THEY’RE GONNA PAY FOR THIS
Rep. Thanedar asks Lyons and Scott if they think Trump will pardon them and Noem.

Scott: "I don't need a pardon from anybody."

Thanedar: "You better hope so because you will be held accountable for the absolute disregard of the law your agencies have shown over the past year."

Meet Eloise. She was found as a stray with a broken jaw, infected neck wound, and dental disease. Thanks to you, we covered the surgery and treatment she needed to heal. During recovery, she joined her foster's Pilates classes and became so beloved the instructor adopted her ❤️‍🩹

Forget watching the living standards of the next generation fall, I am watching my basic standard of living fall in real time
Here's the thing - the price increase for one good, health insurance, entirely cancelled out my entire raise for this year, so every other bit of inflation cuts into my real wages. And I'm fine, right, but this is worth complaining about
I really don’t want to do another round of inflation discourse, particularly as a practicing economist, but like, this was $54. And, like, i’m not exactly splurging here. Store brand cheese and pickles? Crackers? Lunch meat? A pound of chicken?

Right now Rikers Island, the physically largest jail in the entire United States, is holding under 7,000 people.

ICE's warehouse plans include detention camps which will hold between 8,500-10,000 people in buildings not designed for human habitation.

There are a growing number of reports of agents impersonating construction workers, delivery drivers & anti-ICE activists, heightening fears in the state.

That's deceptive & unconstitutional, because they use trickery to get around warrant & consent protections.

Cmon now guys. If any Dem says anything besides shut down until this is all gone then there's no need for federal government at all. These are concentration camps. If you're too scared to say so then you're part of the problem.
In the last month ICE has bought warehouses in:

- Hagerstown, MD: $102 million
- Surprise, AZ: $70 million
- Hamburg, PA: $87 million
- Tremont, PA: $120 million
- San Antonio, TX: $82 million
- El Paso, TX: $123 million
- Social Circle, GA: price unknown

This is unprecedented.
