I said this before but Americans simply can not comprehend how much wealth there is. We constantly under project how much tax revenue we will raise from taxing the wealthy. The original estimate was $50 million.
Crowd reaction to Prop 1A raising $115 million in it's first year, more than double the initial estimate! @houseourneighbors.bsky.social

Every December brings an end-of-year crush to Washington, D.C.’s pediatric clinics. In addition to the usual culprits — colds, the flu, RSV — that’s also the time when the city school district issues notices reminding parents of children who are behind on required vaccinations to get caught up by December 8, or risk being turned away from school. For Dr. Megan Prior, a pediatrician in the district, the vaccine rush brings an opportunity to catch families up on more than shots. This past December, Prior said, a 12-year-old overdue for her meningitis, tetanus and other vaccines also presented with severe prediabetes that was on the verge of becoming full-blown disease.

ICE has now spent over half a BILLION dollars just on purchasing warehouses around the country to convert into detention camps.
If these mega-camps are utilized to the full capacity ICE intends, they'll be the largest prisons in the country, with little real oversight. www.ajc.com/politics/202...

I can’t stress this enough. The state of 4th Amendment law is that the cops can’t force you to type in a passcode but they can force you to swipe your finger or present your face. Never stop using passcodes/passwords to unlock your devices. And consider additional code to unlock Signal.
The FBI was able to access Washington Post reporter Hannah Natanson's Signal messages because she used Signal on her work laptop. The laptop accepted Touch ID for authentication, meaning the agents were allowed to require her to unlock it. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

That's THREE Democratic lawmakers in Minnesota who have been attacked -- assaulted, shot, killed -- by Trump supporters in the last 7 months (and 60+ more were targeted for violence). That is the actual domestic terrorism.

The officer who shot Alex worked for DHS for 8 years. The officer who shot Renee worked for DHS for over 10 years. Both are considered “highly trained.”
The problem isn’t "training." DHS was built to violate our rights and has been empowered to act with impunity. We must MELT ICE and dismantle DHS.
