Sure sounds like somebody at DOGE took the Social Security numbers and personal information of every American on record, and put it on a thumb drive to bring home to Elon Musk’s AI company.

Holy shit - this would be very, very bad:
"The databases, called β€œNumident” and the β€œMaster Death File,” include records for more than 500 million living and dead Americans, including Social Security numbers, places and dates of birth, citizenship, race and ethnicity, and parents’ names."

Pope Leo XIV’s Vatican newspaper is the only publication in the Western world to run the photograph of 150 Iranian girls' graves β€” killed in President Trump's military strikes β€” on its front page.

Will Ogles be censured for his comments?

Because it's quite hard to read this as anything but a call for the expulsion (or worse) of 4.5 million people on the basis of their religion.

REVEALED: What did Andy Ogles do with nearly $25,000 meant for child burial garden? He won't say Now, NewsChannel 5 Investigates has uncovered more questions that the freshman Republican won't answer.

Since Rep. Andy Ogles is back in the news for the typically bigoted, boneheaded reasons, it's another opportunity to point out that he once raised $25K to open a cemetery for miscarried babies. He then ditched the idea and can't explain what happened to the money.

Tua is still getting his full salary* from the Dolphins. Atlanta only needed to give him the veteran minimum because of that.

* Miami's obligation is reduced by the amount Atlanta is paying him, which is a small fraction of the original amount

Jerry Rice's age 36-41 seasons are basically untouched by anyone else, right? Is anybody even in the same area code in terms of production at that age?

If he retires does he forfeit some or all of the guaranteed money? Or does he at least have to go through the motions of "trying" to find another spot somewhere?

Cory Doctorow did a really good treatment of how an alien superhero gets othered in his novella "Model Minority". Hell, just pick up the "Radicalized" collection which contains it. "Unauthorized Bread" is amazing.
