-A stay-at-home dad, I volunteer in my community as a bike mechanic, and serve on the board of the local tool library. I like music and books. I’m learning how to fly airplanes.
@decodingfoxnews.bsky.social re: Jesse Watters’ insulting the boomers.

600,000 Venezuelans with TPS just got a little less safe—Trump is revoking Mayorkas’ last-second extension of TPS, restoring previous expiration dates in April and September.

Now Noem has to make a decision on extension or termination for about half that population by Feb 1 instead of spring 2026.
