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.

“.. the Witkoff-Dmitriev plan” demands that a substantial share of $300 billion of frozen Russian state assets “be carved up between Washington and Moscow .. This has apparently disappeared from subsequent versions, but there’s no mistaking the intent.”

Welp, #Hoosiersky, looks like it's back to the barricades (phones, that is). Legislature will convene on Monday, Dec 1st after all, and they for some reason still think they need to discuss redistricting. 🤬 @hoosleft.us @hoosier-jezebel.bsky.social @woodenstares.bsky.social

A story in three parts:

1. Trump promises voters he’ll cut consumers’ energy costs in half in his first year
2. Trump fails, but pretends he succeeded based on data that doesn’t exist
3. a growing number of Americans who can’t afford their electricity bills are facing power shutoffs
As Trump stumbles on energy costs, more Americans are facing power shutoffs As energy costs climb, more Americans are facing a wave of power shutoffs
While the president pretends to have succeeded in lowering energy costs, more Americans are getting their power shut off

The draft dodging idiot posted a pic of this West Point plaque. It contains these words:

“Our American Code of Military Obedience requires that, should orders and the law ever conflict, our officers must obey the law.”

That is precisely what Senator Mark Kelly told officers to do. #NoSedition
