Whistleblowers just shared a memo showing DHS instructing ICE to force their way into peoples' houses without a proper warrant. Why is this not on all the networks right now? This is a criminal conspiracy to violate rights under color of law.

Debunking the Myth of the ‘Migrant Crime Wave’ Data does not support claims that the United States is experiencing a surge in crime caused by immigrants.

Politicians & some media outlets have latched onto a narrative that recent immigrants, especially undocumented, are causing spikes in crime.

Research does not support the view. In fact, immigrants might have less law enforcement contact compared to native-born Americans.

New tariff just dropped.

Americans set to pay an additional 10% tax on all goods from Germany, the UK, France, the Netherlands, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, and Finland.

It starts in two weeks, rising to 25% by June.

Simon Rosenberg on Trump’s no good, very bad year "It’s grotesque. He’s become a grotesque figure."

"He’s not even really pretending any longer to give a shit about working people in America. It’s why he’s been so widely rejected, because it’s clear his politics is really about enriching himself & his friends and screwing over everybody else. People have figured that out." — @simonwdc.bsky.social
