A child born in 2026 could conceivably have as many as 10-20 COVID infections by the time they reach adulthood (assuming a conservative rate of one infection every 1-2 years, mostly through school exposure). They will have received repeated insults to their immune/nervous/circulatory systems.
You are probably getting brain damage from all those COVID infections.

AOC: An agency that is attacking U.S. citizens, kidnapping five-year-olds and using them as bait, and privately circulating the idea that they can violate the rights of Americans by busting down their doors—they deserve to be defunded, and I’ll take any step in that direction.

“That was a low point for me, spiritually,” the soldier said. It wasn’t that trash pickup was beneath him: In the Army, he’s gladly cleaned bathrooms & mopped floors. Instead, he took issue with feeling condescended to by his superiors, who “never addressed how ridiculous” this whole mission was.”

This is the obvious answer. NOTHING IS STOPPING YOU from doing it too. Go feed people. Go meet your neighbors. You and your friends all go buy guns & medical kits & tourniquets and learn how to use them, take de-escalation classes. It sounds like these people are too chicken to do anything risky.

The wristband closely matches those worn by members of the Omega Fire Ministries, a Christian evangelical church started by Nigerian televangelist Johnson Suleman, which read:
"If you monitor me you die" and "My blood is untouchable"

This photo by Mostafa Bassim shows an ICE agent scanning someone's face with a mobile app, quite possibly Mobile Fortify as first reported by @404media.co. This is the first image I've seen of the app's UI in action.
If you look closely, you can also see an interesting wristband on the agent.

I still can't get over how they started to throw the ICE agent under the bus, but then Trump wanted to increase the violence and give them blanket immunity instead.
This seems significant: not a FORMER DHS official, but a SENIOR (current) one saying the officer who fired acted counter to training.
This is not an admin that admits mistakes. And they are hanging this guy out to dry on Day One.
I think they know this is bad. Really bad.
