This is scary as shit !
We are underreacting to this‼️
We have no explanation on SCOTUS decisions affecting our lives.
The emergency docket, aka “shadow docket,” is the quiet backdoor of the Supreme Court. Decisions drop fast, with little explanation, and Trump is hammering it harder than anyone in modern history.

As awful as this, the focus on whether the woman was complying obscures the more important issue: in a democracy, there should not be armed agents demanding to see papers of every passing person.
“Traumatized, humiliated, degraded.”
The nurse, a US citizen, 4’11”, 85 lbs, says she was following orders when she was dragged out of her car by masked immigration agents in Florida.
It was the 3rd time she had been stopped and told to produce ID.

In other words: I was making money shoveling conspiracy bullshit without having any facts and conning my audience to make a buck. After I leave the FBI, I will get back to that.

Democrats wanted to force big airlines to pay you if they delayed your flight for hours and hours. Then Trump came into office and cancelled the entire plan.
Why? Because he only cares about helping out his billionaire buddies, not you.

Parts of the federal gov't that most people never think about -- research orgs, safety regs, low-income programs, etc. -- are being degraded & destroyed, with no one to notice or mourn them. But every bit of it erodes the foundations of US power & prosperity, carefully laid over decades.

Amazon’s “cheap” shipping relies on:
• public subsidies (USPS)
• aggressive labor practices
• undercutting competitors until they collapse
• sheer scale
Once USPS is weakened and competitors shrink, Amazon can raise prices quietly.
This is the exact same move Walmart pulled in the 90s.
