Every Democrat running for office needs to promise investigations and full prosecutions from top to bottom, remove its funding bloat then break up the agency and distribute its core remaining useful functions across other agencies.
ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries.
Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves.
"Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks.
"No, guess he should've complied," agent says.

Ok how much did the military lose. The USPS is not a business
The USPS faces a tight squeeze. With fewer people using the mail, it’s lost more and more money: $9 billion in the 12 months ending in September alone.

Yes, to be clear: with measles, there's a heterogeneous range of combinations of outcomes — but the idea that you can sustain an illness, recover, then have it kill you years later more or less without warning is fairly astonishing considering very powerful people are calling for "natural immunity"
One thing I have to stress here that folks also don't get.
Diseases like the ones we vaccinate against? That shit isn't just "oh, you recover or you die." It's just "you don't die." For a lot of them, you just plain never recover. Ever. There's always lingering scars that are debilitating.

It's very clear people don't realize how terrifying measles is, or this would be front page news. Measles is absolutely brutal. Earlier this year a child died in years after recovering from the virus. Others experience vision and hearing loss, or have seizures.
