ICE just got caught in another lie.
ICE cut over 40% of its training program, slashed half of all firearms instruction, and eliminated ALL evaluation of agents’ grasp of skills specific to immigration enforcement and deportation operations.

I have spent an unfortunate amount of time in the past year screaming "Signal is not a SCIF!!"
Don't be afraid to call terrorists terrorists.
Everyone understands which country is doing this.
We are aware of recent reports regarding targeted phishing attacks that have resulted in account takeovers of some Signal users, including government officials and journalists. We take this very seriously. 1/7
Time Magazine: Should Americans be worried about Iran striking the U.S. at home?
Trump: I guess, we plan for it. But yeah, you know, we expect some things. Like I said, some people will die.

The stupidity of this administration is truly mind-boggling.
Screenshot of four different jobs from the NY Mag feature about what people make in NYC: "Home Health Aide $23,000 I've been a home health aide for ten years. My main patient last year was in Brooklyn. I spent most of my time taking care of her. I worked two days a week, and I was being paid for 13 hours of work each day - my agency, Loyal Home Care, budgets eight hours of sleep and three hours for mealtimes into our wages. But I was basically working 24 hours a day. She was active, and I was worried she would fall, so I would watch her all day and night. This is a pretty common experience for health aides. The agency can deny our overtime, but you can't deny a patient. When they say, "Oh, I need a drink of water; I need to use the bathroom," how could you possibly say "no" to them? Bronx Day-Care Worker $31,000 $16,600 from day-care profits $14,400 from trainings and consulting Last year, I lost a lot of kids. I live in the Bronx, and a bunch of families in my neighborhood lost their child-care vouchers. We're talking about people who make as much as I do; most of the moms I work with are home health aides. They can't afford full-time child care. If I have 16 kids, I can pay myself for 40 hours of work. But last year, I didn't, and obviously I'm still doing the same amount of work. I've been running the day care out of my home for more than seven years. It's a profession I entered out of necessity and have stayed in out of passion. I pay for everything - food, cleaning supplies, toys - and we have to meet the same requirements as a large company in terms of paying for liability insurance, which can feel pointless in this industry. I mean, if something happens to one of my children, I lose my license. End of story."
It's all so clear
True - but I even think Obama would admit he was partially to blame.
1 - He should have moved to take $ out of federal elections
1A - There should have been REAL financial system reform and JAIL time for the perps of the 2007/2008 banking fraud
2 - allowing public buy-in to Medicare
bookmark this and every other MAGA comment promising the Iran WAR is just a blip that'll be over before we know it...
Literally everything the Heritage Foundation suggests is nauseating
“The state’s proposed “trigger laws,” …are direct challenges to Plyler v. Doe, a narrowly decided 1982 Supreme Court case that enshrined the right to a free K–12 public education regardless of immigration status.”

It turns out a mishchievous Kiwanian named Lester Ottenheimer conceived the whole thing as a prank. The enraged town fathers demand he be arrested, and he does in fact spend two hours in jail before officials realize there is no law on the books to ban such hoaxes. 2/2

March 9, 1926: The Kiwanis Club advertises that its meeting in East Chicago, Ind., will be broadcast live on WGN radio, drawing dignitaries including the mayor to give speeches boosting the town’s virtues. All goes well until someone notices the microphone isn’t plugged in. 1/2
If Trump has "totally crippled" Iran's military, why can't tankers move through the Straight of Hormuz?
Is it too much to hope and pray that the U.S. and Israel limit their targets to military and leave the water alone? I’m sure we have the power to prevail against Iran, but destroying the desalination plants is existentially devastating to millions of innocent people. We aren’t savages…are we?

We don’t talk enough about how morally depraved the tech industry turned out to be. Every single ounce of their self-regarding statements of values was an outright lie.
Jimmy Kimmel tonight: The reason Trump hasn't testified yet about the Epstein files is you can't put him under oath. If he swears to tell the truth, he's already committed perjury.

Democracy has never been one of Trump's priorities. In fact, he's really not fond of it, and sees it as an adversary or something to try to get around.
