"Always, always, always concentration camps are an end run around the existing legal system. These people that are getting rounded up because whoeverโs in power wants to do something that they canโt do using the letter of the law..."

How sad is this? The CDC closed its FOIA office, so this story could only be published because a Danish journalist provided Rolling Stone with the documents, after obtaining them through a freedom of information request to the University of Southern Denmark

#Minnesota #ICE
BREAKING: ICE agents in Minneapolis violently detained and arrested a U.S. citizen for one reason only: he refused to prove his citizenship.
No crime. No warrant. No probable cause.
โUruguay did what most nations still call impossible: it built a power grid that runs almost entirely on renewablesโat half the cost of fossil fuels. The physicist who led that transformation says the same playbook could work anywhereโif governments have the courage to change the rules.โ
These 10 companies stand to rake in $1 billion by 2027 by helping ICE track down and round up immigrants.
Cashing in on cruelty.
Exactly.
"I doubt Senator Kelly will see this blog, and if he does see it, I imagine he will not be pleased with it. Heโll probably find it embarrassing. His humility likely makes him bristle at stuff like this. Well, thatโs just too damn bad, Senator."

Amazing!! Women Help Women (womenhelp.org) is manufacturing their own abortion pills in order to make abortion safer, simpler and more accessible across borders. They designed an eco-friendly combi-pack that's easier to mail discreetly and centred around womenโs experiences and needs.

A federal judge didnโt โstealโ the Commander-in-Chiefโs powersโshe ruled that DoD exceeded the limits Congress set. That is the rule of law working as designed. What threatens the Republic isnโt judicial review, but officials who insist theyโre above it.
The EPA is greenlighting pesticides made with PFAS, actual forever chemicals, as active ingredients on foods like lettuce, broccoli, & potatoes. Theyโre also planning to weaken drinking water rules & relax PFAS reporting. This is a public health disaster being signed into policy
Are those "MANY GREAT LEGAL SCHOLARS" in the room with you right now, Piggy?
