We hope to continue covering waste and corruption in DHS contracting. Reupping this story we did back in October on a question "self-deportation" contract that went to a new company run by a guy with links to top DHS officials. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
How a new firm with DHS ties won a $915 million contract to help immigrants "self-deport"
The “rushed” deal was handed to a firm with “no track record” as a federal contractor, a rival's lawsuit alleges.

Fentanyl. Drug Overdoses, including Fentanyl, are not even in the top 20 causes of death in the USA. Cancer, Diabetes, Covid, Heart Disease all in the top 10, and all have had their research funding cut. They aren't murdering just Venezuelans. However they are killing us much slower.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.
The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

Absolutely incredible; after shooting Marimar Martinez 5 times and arresting her on claims that she rammed them and pulled a gun, prosecutors have now moved to dismiss ALL criminal charges against her and her codefendant.
New: the govt has moved to dismiss its assault case against Marimar Martinez and Anthony Ian Santos Ruiz, two people accused of "box[ing] in" a Border Patrol vehicle in Chicago on Oct. 4.
One agent shot Martinez, with evidence presented to the court that he later bragged about in text messages.

The Fed is gutting its ability to monitor warning signs of bank failures and slashing rules put in place after 2008 to prevent another financial crisis.
Now, big banks are ramping up the same risky behaviors that led to the last economic crash–setting the stage for another one.

He's proposing this again today:
1. Take money away from insurance companies.
2. Give that money to the people.
3. The people can then buy their own insurance.
4. From, presumably, companies that sell insurance.
5. Which are also known as "insurance companies."

Where does that leave disabled and chronically ill people?
