Dear Charlotte Observer: kidnapped is the correct word unless you have witnessed the documents charging the person with a criminal act. Lack of immigration status is a civil violation. Your words matter.

Rep. Mark Harris wants the National Guard to help fight crime in Charlotte. Data shows that the more rural parts of his district have a higher rate of violent crime. www.ncrabbithole.com/p/republican...
GOP congressmen want the National Guard in Charlotte. Here's where violent crime is a bigger problem.
Sure, the data can't always tell the entire story. But one representative who's asking for a deployment isn't suggesting the same solution for a more violent place in his own district.

The General Assembly should be rushing to fully fund Medicaid and pay teachers and law enforcement what they’re worth. Instead, they’re rushing to take away your power as a voter.

NEW: As of June 28, a full 32% of the people arrested by ICE and sent to detention had NO CRIMINAL RECORD — no pending criminal charges or prior conviction. This rate doubled since Stephen Miller's quotas began in May.

This is likely the highest rate of such detention in ICE's history.

👀 NEW nonpublic data from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) indicate that the Trump regime "is primarily detaining individuals with no criminal convictions of any kind"

- 65% had no criminal convictions
- 93% never convicted of violent offenses

This is all from a right leaning org - CATO
65 Percent of People Taken by ICE Had No Convictions, 93 Percent No Violent Convictions
ICE’s deportation agenda is not what is being advertised to the American public. ICE is not interested in prioritizing public safety, yet it constantly pretends that anyone who objects to its tactics ...

NEW FROM CBO: brutal distributional analysis of House GOP "Big Beautiful Bill"

On avg the bottom 30% of households get poorer under the GOP bill

Avg gets little - and are worse off if you include tariffs

This'd be the largest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in a single law in history
