THE TENTH LEVEL was a made-for-TV drama, 50 years ago, starring William Shatner in one of his most powerful performances ever. It was inspired by the Stanley Milgram obedience research experiments, which studied the willingness to “just follow orders.” youtu.be/wzV_Z6EXhpE

To recap this week:
•Trump fires 8 immigration judges
•DHS tweets "remigration now,"—an actual Nazi policy
•DHS defies court order & deports a 19-year-old college student
•Trump regime removes report on Missing & Murdered Indigenous women, calling it "DEI"
This is an overt policy of white supremacy

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

Remember—Billionaire philanthropy is PR
$6.25B is a lot of money. It’s also only 4.1% of the $152B Michael Dell has hoarded. If Dell paid the 37% tax rate on the wealthy he'd pay $56.25B—and still have nearly $100B, more than he'd ever need
Taxation of billionaires > philanthropy from billionaires

Frog knocked at Toad’s door. “Toad, wake up,” he cried. “Come out and see how wonderful the winter is!”
“I will not,” said Toad. “I am in my warm bed.”

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.

EPA just okayed PFAS “forever chemicals” on produce. Protect yourself by choosing organic, avoiding sludge-fertilized farms, buying local, and asking grocers to reject PFAS. Shifting spending to PFAS-free farms pressures the industry to stop.

The most precious commodity you have is your attention. You don’t have to waste it on poor-faith debates or arguments with strangers if you don’t think they’ll be productive. You can prioritize the things that matter to you and make your life richer.

A Maine woman retired early to be a caregiver for her terminally ill mother.
Now she’s facing cancer herself, and because ACA subsidies won’t be extended, she is losing her healthcare.
Her costs are going up for $49,000 a year.
This isn’t healthcare, it’s eugenics.
Medicare for all.
