ICE has spent over $5 million on social media and dark web monitoring software that critics say enables warrantless surveillance.
If there are midterms.
They are the swamp.
I work as an elder and hospice caregiver, which I am oddly passionate about. I can love on them shamelessly and no one complains about my codependence. It's a win-win situation. Many of my caregiving colleagues complain about the repetitive questions and, sometimes reactions, of the elderly, especially when those patients happen to read the newspaper, especially with the current downward spiral of our country β as if these people haven't lived through enough horror... I love my dementia peeps, but sometimes wonder if there's a Guinness Book World Record for how many times an hour a dementia patient can repeat the same question β it's got to be in the hundreds. At least with small children, they ask different questions. Dementia patients will get stuck on one short question and ask it until you can interrupt their train(carousel) of thought and successfully redirect their attention. That carousel is pretty manic sometimes. A couple days ago, I picked up my mail from the post office and drove over to the nursing home to take (let's call her "Miss Daisy") Miss Daisy out for a drive. Before we took off on our road trip, to the end of The Road and back, in our landlocked little town (Juneau, Alaska), I set my copy of The Onion down in front of her. Over our two-hour excursion, tiny Miss Daisy read that front page at least a dozen times and each time she would snicker, giggle, and guffaw, then put it down on the dash board and, a minute later, discover it anew. I think it was the best afternoon of my life. We don't often hear them laugh and when they do, it's the sweetest thing you've ever heard. ... Thank you, thank you, thank you, for the really important work all of you do. You make the world a better place.
I got permission to share this, and I'm extremely grateful for that.
The Onion got this letter from one of our subscribers in Alaska. She works with dementia patients and decided to leave a copy in the car for each one.
This email made my year. Read it and you'll see what I mean. People are good.
This smoking a cigarette, and the text says Jesus, watching the worst people on the planet claim to be his followers
Seriously, they're the worst!
Our European friends can help us the most by boycotting American goods and causing as much economic pain to our oligarchs as possible. All they care about is their money so help us take it away from them. It will hurt our economy, which might hurt us temporarily, but it needs to be done.
The image is a screenshot of a social media post by Tony Michaels (@thetonymichaels ). The post features an image with text that reads: "FIFTY YEARS OF 'TRICKLE-DOWN' HAS TURNED MILLIONAIRES INTO BILLIONAIRES & THE WORKING CLASS INTO THE WORKING POOR." The text is framed by a decorative border with floral patterns in the corners and small diamond shapes in the center of each side.
The only thing that trickled down during Trumpβs administration was Rudyβs hair dye.

One thing Republicans do constantly that I never see from Dems is finding an extremely unlikeable person from the other side and making them the face of the party. Like why don't Dems play this sound bite over and over?
Oklahoma Republicans are moving to change the stateβs Social Studies curriculum to suggest to kids that the 2020 election was rigged.
They want to order teachers to tell students that the ballots are disputed and have βdiscrepancies.β

Greenland only has about 56,000 residents. It looks like a lot of them showed up for this.
Holy crap. The DOJ is arguing that the President can unilaterally deport anyone he wants without ANY statutory authority, just on his inherent authority as President over national security.
That is a terrifying claim to make and not one that has ever been recognized before in US history.
