They are "public" officials after all. They are paid by us. This is not a private army.
Naming someone is not doxxing. They aren’t undercover. They aren’t intelligence agents overseas. This is outrageous - we are supposed to be a free Republic and these people want an authoritarian police state. Lawsuits should be filed & ranking Dems in Congress should act.

Vance's stance is, almost literally, "Well, she shouldn't have mouthed off like that. She asked for it."
When Vance insists, contra the videos, that Good threatened the ICE agent and "had it coming", what he means is that he, like Ross, feels threatened by any woman who has the audacity to use her voice in the public sphere.
This deeply misogynist worldview is core to MAGA.

The top 10% of richest Americans own 87% of stocks.
The top 1% alone own roughly half of all stocks.
It's worth pointing out once again that the stock market is not the economy.

The ‘one chatbot per child’ model for AI in classrooms conflicts with what research shows: Learning is a social process
AI tutors are often held up as an ideal, but prioritizing individualized teaching can detract from the benefits of learning in social environments.

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard.
We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions.
We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

It’s interesting that protests all across America were peaceful and violence free. It wasn’t just protests in ‘blue’ states. It was all states. I’m in deep red Florida. No violence here. No violence anywhere. Guess we’re not the crazy people they tried to convince people we are.
