A rotisserie chicken is maybe $10 and can be the base for like five meals, what the fuck are you talking about, man?

If you didn’t live through the 90s you don’t understand that this kind of thing would have been the #1 story in America for weeks. The only major story in politics for like 2 years was one BJ.
This Nancy Guthrie story is a 90s news story happening in the middle of the downfall of the Republic. Like if OJ was happening during Vietnam.

“I’ve mentioned before that concentration camp regimes in their early stages often make use of large open infrastructure to convert into detention spaces. Dachau was converted from a shuttered factory into a concentration camp in 1933.”
When I got the contract to write a history of concentration camps in 2014, I hoped to keep the US from ending up here. That didn't work out! But now it's critical to understand how much is already in process and the enormity of what's coming. The sooner we act to stop it, the more people we'll save.

Why the fuck would anyone risk this shit? Aside from the obvious ICE bullshit, you'd have to think this also will depress tourism and seriously slash what the host communities were likely expecting to be an economic boost.

I think collectively, we at least partially wanted the child at the Super Bowl to be Liam because the little boy on stage looked happy and healthy and our hearts want so badly to think these children can somehow magically recover from the evils our government is doing.
Super Bowl viewers Sunday speculated that 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos appeared in the halftime show. In fact, he has been in hiding with his family.
“He can’t sleep well at night. He wakes up three or four times a night screaming, ‘Daddy, Daddy,’” Liam's father Adrian Conejo Arias, said.
