ICE is not only chasing down every random brown person in Chicago, they have a cameraman following them to film this for social media. Cruelty and inhumanity as content.

If you are a woman having complications from pregnancy you are turned away because they doctor and hospital are more worried about prison time than the health of woman.

So boo fucking hoo if the federal government has to reimburse someone. Women get kicked out to die.

Mike Johnson: "If you're a young, pregnant American citizen women who shows up in an ER and you get treated and they pay the hospital less for treating you than some illegal rabble rouser who came in from some South American country to do us harm, that is wrong."

For the second year in a row under Gov. Jeff Landry, the Louisiana Department of Health won't hold flu vaccine events.

Flu vaccine drives were held for several years under previous governors, both Democratic and Republican.

For the second year in a row, Louisiana won’t promote the flu vaccine • Louisiana Illuminator

It’s a departure from practice for Louisiana’s health agency, which held mass flu vaccine events for several years under previous governors.

Remember how we use to post lyrics as captions perfect shuffle song this morning from A Day To Remember “I will never falter, I'll stand my ground
You're a fake, a worthless coward
Your life won't mean anything”

Governor JB Pritzker @govpritzker.illinois.gov · 6h

I will not back down.

Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power.

What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?

It's so many untold stories of Black people who've had similar circumstances and ultimately the same fate as Kyren Lacy. Racism is heavy. Racism is fatal.

RAJU: You swore in 2 GOP members during pro forma session. Why not swear in Grijalva? Does it have to do w/her signature on Epstein petition?

JOHNSON: It has nothing to do with that. We'll swear her in when everybody is back

R: Why not now?

J: Uh - we'll schedule it, I guess, as soon as she wants

Whenever they ask how we'd pay for universal health care or housing for the homeless or forgiving student loan debt or feeding the hungry or... Just remember they all signed off on paying for this.

What could 10,000 ICE jackboots each cost to recruit, Michael? $3,000,000? Wait, that cannot possibly be right *checks math*

"The [ad] campaign... is part of ICE’s $30 billion initiative to hire 10,000 more deportation officers by the end of the year."

"Axios reported that senior administration officials were developing guidance that furloughed federal workers are not entitled to back pay. White House officials said it would take a novel interpretation of the back pay law and argue it applied only to 2019."

OMB deletes reference to law guaranteeing backpay to furloughed feds from shutdown guidance

An Office of Management and Budget FAQ document now states that only excepted employees forced to work without pay are guaranteed backpay at the conclusion of a lapse in appropriations.

The thing about ICE agents is that they literally get off on causing pain. If they didn’t work for ICE, they’d be bouncers, cops who keep getting fired for brutality or straight up criminal thugs.They love hurting people, making children cry. They are broken people with badges. Dangerous as hell.
