Most nazis and most concentration camp guards went on to freely and openly live their lives and died peacefully in their beds.
This is essentially what governments did in the late 1900s and early 2000s with respect to Nazis. Whether you were a lowly concentration camp guard or in Hitler's inner circle, if there was evidence you were a Nazi, it was straight to jail with your walker.

It worked.
Maybe instead of identifying specific ICE agents who do particularly heinous things, we could just penalize everyone who was on payroll at the agency starting by a certain date.

David Brooks, who wrote in the NYT last month, "The Epstein Story? Count Me Out" is... in the latest Epstein photo dump published by @oversightdemocrats.house.gov.

He should absolutely be fired by NYT for this. Major conflict of interest that he didn't disclose.

"I'd really like to see them suffer."

The chief goal of the Trump regime's operations murdering people in the Caribbean is to foster bloodlust in their supporters—to turn them into debased monsters like this ghoul.

Why? Consult René Girard on sacrificial violence:

It's infuriating to read a piece that talks about a public health approach, yet never once suggests that fewer cars would also reduce traffic deaths. The answer to safer streets will never involve cars.

This sort of op-ed gives cover to leaders who don't want to make life-saving design changes.
If one feels so strongly that AVs are necessary because driving by people is too unsafe, they should take that idea further and support reducing the need to drive in all or most circumstances. We don’t need AVs to make safety improvements, and we shouldn’t get stuck on tech fixes. Gift link

I feel much safer today knowing that we deported a Babson College student back to a country where she hasn't lived since childhood.

She wasn't even flying internationally. She was flying to Texas.

1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics.

It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT.

It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.

Transgender care saves lives.
Study In The Journal Of Pediatrics Finds Trans Youth Care Lowers Suicidality, Few Detransition
The groundbreaking study found that suicidality dropped for transgender youth receiving hormone therapy by nearly 70%, with only 7 patients of 432 discontinuing treatment.

Guys, there's no evidence ICE is buying guided warheads. The contract in question is for normal distraction devices, the kind they've been using for years.
I'm seeing a lot of people claiming ICE has guided warheads. This seems to be based on a Substack newsletter which as best I can tell was referring to this contract. This contract is for distraction devices (sound grenades), but the PSC is for guided warheads
