New — The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) was told this week by DOJ that they'd lose their funding if the org didn't remove any mentions of LGBTQIA+ issues from their public materials, I've learned.

Steady yourself. Accept that it’s going to be a really rough ride. I mean that in the most genuine and authentic manner I can muster. The “suck” factor is likely going to be high.

The Missouri GOP is proposing SB 72, which includes a "certified bounty hunter program" to pay private citizens to track down undocumented immigrants.

It also mandates involuntary DNA collection and the creation of anonymous tiplines with paid rewards per arrest.
