Florence ICE detainee dead after untreated tooth infection, official says
An ICE detainee, who had been at a Florence detention center for four months, died Monday following an untreated tooth infection.
Last year, at least 32 people died in ICE custody — the most in 2 decades. Reports show at least 9 have died already this year. How many more before Republicans act?
Trump & Republicans cut Medicaid & SNAP to give this lawless agency an extra $75 BILLION.
Not one more dime.

Periodic reminder that ICE does not just track and watch immigrants. They are collecting and storing information on us all.

Whatever happens, even miraculous Venezuela-like stability in Iran and/or Cuba, the end of US diplomacy as we knew it weakens the US. Diplomacy is a tool of power, we had the best, and we blew it up deliberately. These waters are plenty charted, and they are full of icebergs. 15/15

This bears repeating.
Dr. Casey Means is not eligible for the position as Surgeon General. The position requires experience in public health programs & entry into regular corps. She has done neither.
You can take action by sending a letter to your senator.

BREAKING: DC Circuit, on a 2-1 vote, keeps in place a lower court order blocking DHS Sec. Noem’s effort to end Haiti temporary protected status designation.

If allying yourself with an anti-vax lunatic and helping him gut public health in America while children die of vaccine-preventable diseases doesn’t get you expelled from academia, then the whole system is utterly broken.

I lack the words to capture it, but ... it's just endlessly remarkable to me that so many people in our society have chosen trans kis -- TRANS KIDS, the smallest, least significant, most vulnerable demographic slice you could possibly pick -- as a repository for all their fears & insecurities.

(Or they become some kind of Anabaptisty Hauerwasian.)
But you’ll never have an influential jurist upholding the evangelical intellectual tradition & evangelical political philosophy because there isn’t any such thing to uphold.

An unopened action figure package. Inside is Jean Luc Picard, but dressed in a gardeners outfit, tan hat and overalls with a blue undershirt, that he wore for a portion of one episode.
It comes with a gardening tool, scanner, and carrying case the figurine can hold.
My sister got me this for Christmas because she couldn’t believe they made an action figure of “Dirt Farmer Picard”
