Elon Musk is furious that people who were not born in America are able to cast a vote in American elections.
I wonder what his attitude is about people who were not born in America but spend billions of dollars influencing American elections.

Not just a failure of ethics, it’s an existential collapse of institutional legitimacy. Legal systems exist to uphold justice, media exists to inform truthfully, and academia exists to pursue and disseminate knowledge. Capitulating to authoritarian payfor favor demands destroys all three.

The deeply unprofessional masked goons are now going to subcontract their bounties to completely unprofessional armed goons. Awesome.
“Under the plan, bounty hunters may receive “monetary bonuses” depending on how successfully they track down their targets — and how many immigrants they then report to ICE.”
Or ICE could just fund the Klan directly.

Companies hired by ICE would be given bundles of information on 10,000 immigrants at a time to locate — and paid cash bonuses for performance.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...
