Bad decisions make great stories and I’ve got a lot of great stories.
It’s no surprise that ICE did a high profile raid in Georgia. Trump hates Kemp and what better way to target Kemp and Georgia than chilling any interest in business growth in Georgia?

After being hired to promote Georgia’s Medicaid work requirement program, Deloitte Consulting priced reports about its own marketing performance at $300,000 a month.
A final report, which was due in February, could cost the state nearly half a million.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.
The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.
Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.
The list goes on and on.
Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

Stop calling it deporting, so MAYBE more Americans will get it. "Deporting" is sending someone back, after due process, to the country they came from, where they arrive a free person. This is human trafficking to a foreign torture prison for the rest of their lives. GET THE LANGUAGE RIGHT.

Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

My thoughts on the skilled vs unskilled labor talk. I don’t have as many characters here, so had to post screenshots from the sunken place. But I said what I said, and feel how I feel about it…

Trying to use a robot vacuum to clean a particular pile of debris, of the Christmas tree variety, is its own peculiar level of hell. Watching it ramble from place to place but never where I need it is tearing my nerves up.

fascism is stopped when enough people say one of two things:
1) "nah, I'm not doing that"
2) "nah, you're not doing that"
a lot of people want to imagine how they'll say the second thing, but you should *really* start practicing the first one
