Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.

It’s clear that the primary interest of the US in “peace negotiations” is to create opportunities for Trump, Witkoff, their family members, business partners and cronies to make billions from business deals with Russia, and Ukraine is just the annoying nuisance in the way.

A sad irony in Washington, D.C., where West Virginia National Guardsmen were shot today. Six days ago, a court ruled their deployment was illegal, but stayed the order pending appeal. My heart goes out to these public servants and their families. oag.dc.gov/sites/defaul...

The new USCIS directive on Afghan refugees was issued on Monday NOT on Wednesday after the shooting of the Natl Guard soldiers in DC.
No idea why an Afghan refugee shot National Guard soldiers within walking distance of the White House, but this new USCIS directive was revealed on Monday. Worth noting.
The folks at @afghanevac.bsky.social have in hand a new USCIS directive which largely targets Afghan refugees who fled the Taliban in the wake of the U.S. withdrawal in 2021.
In case you needed a reminder that the most loathsome people in the world work for DHS.

White lady here. Couldn’t agree with this more. Used to be a trigger for my husband. We would argue, debate, discuss. He would not see it as I did. However, after surviving 45, and now enduring 47; I show him something like this and he says, yep!

LLMs still seem like a calculated insult to morality and civic life, if that's what you're asking.

The Trump Economy has been very successful... At reducing workforce numbers. Just ask ADP for its payroll data.
