Unemployed do-gooder, helper of refugees. Colorado. Multipotentialite--or is that the ADHD? I'm in my third act, or maybe it's my fourth. Maybe it's the epilogue. I don't have a job.

It's also in a bunch of essays I wrote. It got me thrown off TV for a time after I said it on air in early 2019.
I'm fine with folks quoting it! I don't like it when they attribute it to another author or when it's plagiarized, which happens often in the AI era.

This is something the Nazis used to do to Jewish children in the camps. It happened to a man I knew when he was a child in Auschwitz. The camp guards thought it was funny as hell.
On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.

The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.

But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

We can dream, right?
When Ds are back in charge, they have to change everything. No moderate half-measures. Just relentless razing of the corrupt institutions that enriched the worst people in the world and propped up fascism.

A few suggestions...

Democrats should promise, today, that Melania Trump, Elon Musk and Peter Thiel will be stripped of citizenship and deported if the administration advances this effort

It will very much be worth your time to read this.
I don’t really know what I expect in posting this, but maybe some people see it and can learn from it.

I’ll call it “lessons from an unwilling immigration attorney.”

Henry Cuellar should never hold elected office again. Anyway in the meantime, make your Senators scared of you.

Honestly even Republicans can be moved if they get enough calls. So make sure to do so. Especially make Democrats terrified of their voters if they don't vote no with a bullet on this one
NEW: House passes SAVE America Act

218-213; Rs + 1 Dem (Cuellar) vote yes.

Revised Trump-backed bill requires showing proof of citizenship "in person" to register and slaps photo ID rules to vote.

Now it goes to the Senate. No path to 60. THUNE promises a vote.

House passes SAVE America Act, sending Trump-backed election bill to the Senate
The legislation would overhaul federal election laws in all 50 states by imposing new voter ID and proof-of-citizenship requirements. But it faces a daunting path in the Senate.

I and millions of Americans believe exactly the same thing Kasparov does.

Too many troops, too many new prisons, too much money not under Congressional supervision.

We're not just witnessing a mass deportation scheme anymore.

This is something significantly bigger and scarier.

Exercise mostly just makes me hostile. My body has never once produced an exercise induced endorphin. I've tried it all from A-Z or aerobics to Zumba, and there is no enjoyable exercise. I still do it, but not because it's pleasant.

I’ve watched a lot of congressional hearings over the last 40 years. This performance by Bondi is the single most unprofessional, non-responsive, reprehensible and obnoxious I have ever seen from any witness who has testified before any committee of either chamber.

"Experts and witnesses attributed this phenomenon to Israel’s systematic use of internationally prohibited thermal and thermobaric weapons, often referred to as vacuum or aerosol bombs, capable of generating temperatures exceeding 3,500 degrees Celsius [6,332 degrees Fahrenheit]."

It’s heartbreaking to see these terrifying photos and videos of the individual at Guthrie’s house. What is equally disturbing is how it looks like just about every ICE agent and officer on the streets. The same ones you are supposed to allegedly take orders from and have your rights taken away from.
