Jeffries Won’t Whip Vote Against ICE Funding - The American Prospect
While the House Democratic leader announced personal opposition to a funding bill for the Department of Homeland Security, he won’t pressure his colleagues to do the same.

They want this to go away without doing what's required to make this go away, followed by talking about things they can't control. Make it make sense.

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

I am gonna go out on a limb and say that a Jersey dude so horrified that he went to his first protest and is trying not to cry on camera has a pretty good chance of staying radicalized. And that while Bluesky loves to pick apart things like this, this kinda video moves the needle for OTHER dudes.

On the left is the ICE concentration camp near El Paso. On the right is an industrial chicken farm in Maryland. Do you know what happens when bird flu breaks out in the latter complex? Remember that Anne Frank died from typhus in a concentration camp, not poison gas.

"It's a jobs program for the scum of the earth" nails it. Look across our current government and you couldn't find competence with a magnifying glass.
Here’s the thing… a dusty, used-up, gravel-sounding, lying, murderous eugenicist who snorted blow off a toilet seat *is* the best that MAGA can find to do the job. Nobody else is any better than this scumbag. That’s the problem, they’re all this venal. It’s a jobs program for the scum of the earth.

This is a direct quote from the secretary of Health and Human Services. I lack words to describe how unhinged it is to have this person dictating healthcare policy for 350 million people.

Furthermore, I can't see our republic moving forward with presidential control of any domestic law enforcement functions.
We should stop calling them law enforcement and call them Trump’s paramilitary, which is what they are.

The Dems should invent a board game where voters get their donor lists and a list of predators from the Epstein files and see how many matches they can make. Voters can play it on the kitchen table so it's a "kitchen-table issue".
I cannot stress enough this is a totally made up conundrum and you do not actually need to field test if talking about how our entire government is controlled by child rapists is interesting.

Former Washington Post journalists have launched a GoFundMe to help repatriate fired staff members who are effectively stranded in foreign countries.
One of the richest men in the world fired them from the paper and didn’t even pay to ensure they got home.
