More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...
Hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz detainees drop off the grid after leaving site
As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.

There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers.

Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.

WATCH: DOGE *savings* are filled with huge lies/errors and take credit for contracts that ended as far back as 2005. (@MarshaBlackburn - any comment?)

Again: a charade to pave the way for tax cuts for the rich. It’s about ideology, not efficiency.

FLASHBACK — HAYES: A massive crypto “heist” by Trump/Elon/Thiel/Sachs/GOP in front of our faces, on the taxpayer dime💰

Worth noting that when the war started Zelensky’s English was very shaky and he’s clearly spent a ton of time improving it for exactly this purpose.

The other day I was pitching our Gilded Age course to undergrads:

“Have you ever wondered what it would be like to live in a nation where the wealthy had insane power and ordinary people were reoeatedly crushed by them until they lashed out in anger?”
journalists really should have a gilded age/progressive era historian on speed dial for the next few years. it will help a lot!
