No, his about-face to release the files is most likely his latest con.

Ask him why so many air traffic controllers are retiring at once. Ask him if it has anything to do with Reagan firing 11K union strikers in 1981 and having to replace them all at once. Ask him how the mass firings this year will impact us the same way 40 years from now. Ask him, Jake.

Very informative piece on the SNAP program from the Handbasket.
“…a more useful conversation about SNAP, the one that tends to be missed, is about persistently low wages for American workers, income inequality, and our threadbare social safety net.”

I am thankful there are U.S. senators like Slotkin speaking the plain truth to the public. Resistance is not futile.
I believe that Trump is ready to bring the full weight of the government against Americans he perceives as enemies. Why? Because he has one goal: making sure he and his ilk never have to give up power.

The depth of the shame of a country this wealthy and abundant allowing its people to go hungry is impossible to measure. The fact that a handful of people could fix this by paying their fair share of taxes while still remaining obscenely wealthy makes it even worse.

The transnational crime syndicate has control of our government. And thereby it has control of things like the treasury and nuclear arsenal. The former can be mitigated by states withholding federal taxes for lack of representation, and overt corruption.

Just STOP deploying AI. If this one was “validated”, it was clearly not evaluated under the conditions it’s being used. (I use quotes bc I’m not an expert, and I’m not even sure one can effectively validate an AI for this use case.)

Don’t answer their questions. It’s an unlawful stop if they demand this information in a compulsory manner. The simple refrain is
1. “Am I being detained?”
2. If not, “Am I free to go?”
Hope they can take this before a judge without added cost.
