Isn’t it interesting how the Admin said we can’t afford cancer research but all of a sudden there’s enough money to buy Greenland?

Who is going to buy the cars the robots make since American humans won’t have jobs to make money to buy cars……or anything 🤦🏼♀️.

State prosecutions are good and need to happen, but worth flagging there are lots of other things states can do. One of them would be cutting off all state assistance of any kind to federal law enforcement. Not just the limited sanctuary laws. Full cold stop, nothing. Also no data sharing, e.g. DMV.

Magic Johnson was the grand marshal of the Rose Parade today, and as someone who remembers his November 1991 HIV announcement: if you had told anybody that day that he would be alive and healthy 34+ years later, I don't think they would have believed you. Medicine and research—they work.

New year, same reminder: The recipe for economic growth isn’t tax cuts for the rich. It’s investment in our people — in health care, infrastructure and education — to build a strong middle class.
You don't grow the economy through trickle-down nonsense.

THIS IS BULLSHIT‼️
Undocumented immigrants already get almost no federal “tax benefits.” Fox makes it sound like there’s a giant welfare pipeline. Not true.
They’re barred from Social Security, Medicare, SNAP, unemployment, and most federal programs, yet they still pay billions into the system.
