Police in St. Paul are investigating an immigration arrest last month that left a man with a fractured skull and bleeding on the brain. Immigration agents have claimed his injuries were caused by him “running into a wall,” but it’s a false narrative agents beat him during the arrest.

I regularly see people wondering how it's possible that there are so many musicians and writers and film makers and artists from a tiny nation like Iceland.

And the answer is really simple: State funding for art education and artists. I literally get a salary from the government to write books.
I’m constantly astounded at the sheer level of artistic production coming out of Iceland. Novels, movies, music. Amazing.

Kennedy supports these dangerous "treatments" and has cronies that profit from them, so of course he removed the FDA page that explained how they are dangerous. A Michigan boy died in a hyperbaric oxygen chamber last year. This is not making us healthier.

There must be trials. Not as an emotive aspiration, rhetorical meme, or empty threat. A concrete plan. A dedicated special court for it. Structural legislation and prosecutors and funding and all the rest of it. Everything necessary for it can be done constitutionally. All it takes is the will.
