Today we observed six shackled detainees being loaded onto the ICE Air flight at MSP. They're heading to El Paso, where conditions are so horrific, staff gamble on who the next prisoner to commit suicide will be.
The man walking from right to left at the beginning of the clip is dragging shackles.
So let me get this straight ...
1. US bombs Iran
2. Oil price goes up a bit, benefitting Russia's petrostate
3. Russia gives Iran targeting info
4. Oil price shoots WAY up
5. US unsanctions Russian oil
She didn't get fired.
She got "promoted" to the new envoy.
New on MS NOW:
The war with Iran is costing the U.S. an estimated $1 billion a day, according to two congressional sources with knowledge of the matter.
Based on that estimate, the U.S. has spent at least $5 billion on the war since it began on Feb. 28.
Like Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

The fallout from U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran has disrupted air travel and prompted the State Department to issue a worldwide caution for Americans in addition to warnings against visiting several countries in the Middle East.

All these people walked into a bar, and the bartender said, "Hello, Donald."
When you think about it for more than 5 seconds, it really is both insane and outrageous that *HILLARY CLINTON* - a woman who apparently has never met with nor corresponded with Jeffrey Epstein was one of the first people deposed.
They dropped off Nurul Amin Shah Alam, a blind refugee who didn't speak English, at a CLOSED Tim Hortons.
5 miles away from his home.
He never made it.

People are making fun of this, but it's serious. In addition to the cop, I'm hearing that a tall man carrying a stack of wrapped parcels had his comically large top hat knocked off by an errant snowball, after which his monocle fell to the ground and cound not be immediately recovered.
It's a concentration camp for kids. That's what we have now.
Because of the National driver register, since their licenses are suspended, trans folks cannot move to another state and get a new license until they remove the suspension on their existing Kansas license.
They can't even escape this by moving to another state.
It seems all Kansas-issued trans drivers' licenses are invalid, effective tomorrow
It is now illegal for trans people to drive a car until they surrender their license at a DMV (that most will need to drive to) and have it reissued with the wrong gender marker
This was never about woman's sports
They will keep the fire department but.... eliminate the sanitation department.
This is putting lives in jeopardy.
