My jams are reading, bookkeeping, spreadsheets and democracy. The best friend you will ever have if your hair is on fire. Not the person to call if you want to go shopping. Not giving in and going down fighting

Anyone currently involved in federal immigration enforcement, every officer, every bureaucrat, every lawyer, every judge, is a member of the most evil group of people this country has seen since Reconstruction. Darkness personified, every one. Doing this to children is beyond depraved.

Only reason anyone cares about who comes to live in the US is racism.Anyone w/ no significant criminal history,job and/or sponsor should be able to come. Give everyone residency cards so we can move on to something important. Too much cultural diversity/illegal people is a manufactured problem imo

ICE plans to build mega warehouses for immigration detention spark growing concern Sources at two government contractors told NBC News they were worried that new warehouses β€” and the large numbers of immigrants who would be housed in them β€” would present safety problems.

This should concern us all. You cannot speak of freedom and liberty and then support this regime’s actions.

All of the 2nd group knows the words of the 1st. It is why they are losing their minds. They are not going the be the majority demographic soon and are afraid they will be treated the way they have treated others

How TrumpRx drug prices compare to generic alternatives Patients could save more buying non-branded copycat drugs, even if they don't have insurance.

More than half the drugs on the TrumpRx siteΒ have a cheaper generic version on the market.

Pristiq, an antidepressant, is available with a TrumpRx coupon for ~$200 for a 30-day supply.

A generic version is on GoodRxΒ for less than $30 and Mark Cuban's CostPlusDrugsΒ for $16.65.

Reporter: Do any of you have a favorite animal?

Child: My favorite one is a gold snake that can move. It has gold eyes, and it has a super-duper tail…

Reporter: Mr. Mamdani, the second question for you.

Mamdani: Yes. It’s also the golden snake.

Tear Gas Is Way More Dangerous Than Police Let On In the middle of a respiratory pandemic, law enforcement agencies have used tear gas in especially dangerous ways. The chemical agent also seeps into homes, contaminates food, furniture, skin and surf...

Tear gas is banned in international warfare, yet classified as a β€œriot control agent” that law enforcement can use for crowd control.

β€œIt just doesn’t work well, and it hits the weakest people the most, and causes the most complications in them,” an anesthesiology professor at Duke University said.

🚨TONIGHT’S PROTEST IN MINNEAPOLIS IS INSANE:

CNN is STUNNED. Share this widely!

β€œI've covered many protests… I've not seen a crowd like this before.” It’s 8 degrees. β€œIt is freezing, but nothing, nothing is stopping these people.”

This isn’t a rally. It’s a movement. @calltoactivism.bsky.social

Here’s How Many ICE and CBP Agents Allegedly Preyed on Children Apparently the institutions are riddled with accused sex criminals.

ICE & U.S. Customs & Border Protection employed at least 30 people with sexual & violent criminal histories in recent years.

At least 20 agents committed offenses with underage victims. The bulk of abuse happened within the last two years.

This article includes names of the agents.

I've been sent video from the end of the ICE raid at the Zipps on 32nd and Shea.

It shows protesters -- on the sidewalk, impeding no one -- getting drive-by maced by an ICE agent from a truck as it rolls away down the road.

Hard to see how such tactics are justifiable.
