Everyone always wants to know “Who is the American gestapo?” but no one ever stops to ask “How is the American gestapo?”
Just thinking... we give so much attention (as we should!) to the victims of state violence, ie, people sent to CECOT.

“We heroically defeated an attempt to make ourselves ethical, please rush us $3”
Confirmed: House Democratic leaders have decided to use a stock trading ban bill as a campaign issue rather than actually pass something that had the GOP support to advance.
Jeffries' team is actively discouraging participation in the bipartisan bill and warning outside groups too.

While work-life balance may give you a sense of happiness and fulfillment, it isn’t always realistic, says Walmart executive vice president and chief people officer Donna Morris.
Walmart exec: ‘I’ve never believed in the term work-life balance’—this is the mantra that made her highly successful instead
Many professionals see work-life balance as a non-negotiable. Walmart CPO Donna Morris says people should practice work-life integration instead. Here's why.
