A heroic moment in this anti-semitic tragedy.
The hero here is a 43 yo Lebanese immigrant and fruit stand owner named
Ahmed Al Ahmed who was shot twice in the arm (apparently bt the other gunman) after wrestling the gun away.
He will be fine according to a relative.

🇺🇸 On this day 25 years ago, The Conservative Supreme Court handed George W. Bush the 2000 presidential election.
A heartbroken Al Gore graciously conceded, and delivered a passionate call for national unity.
🇺🇸 Just 20 years later, Donald J. Trump lost by 7 million votes and attacked our country.

Terrible things are happening outside...poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart; men, women, and children are being separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.” - Anne Frank (Jan 13, 1943)

Turns out the Golden Age of MAGA was an Epstein cover-up, 600,000 Chinese students, H1-B jobs for Indians, massive deficits, pardons for fraudsters & drug traffickers, blowing up boats, 50 year mortgages, tariffs on everything, higher prices, a ballroom, & al-Qaeda in the Oval.

Women know all too well what it’s like to have to funnel ideas through men just to be heard. It fucking sucks. It’s changing, but we all know it. So when people say, “Now there’s proof from this email,” they’re proving they still don’t listen to the survivors who’ve been speaking all along.

Greene on the Epstein files: "I can't conclusively say that's why the House isn't in session, but the House should be in session...there is a new Democrat that's been elected that deserves to be sworn in...if it's to avoid the discharge petition, why drag this out? It's going to have 218 signatures"

To the extent that it is true that federal money covers healthcare for illegal immigrants, it's because Congress and Ronald Reagan back in the 1980s understood it would be monstrous for it not to. www.thebulwark.com/p/government...
Illegal Immigrants Are Already Getting Health Care Under Donald Trump
The program financing ER care for illegal immigrants has been around for four decades, and not even Trump wants to take it away.

This used to be called “racism.“ Sadly, now it’s just mainstream “Trumpism.“
Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL): "Again, these inner-city rats, they live off the federal government. And that’s one reason we’re $37 trillion in debt. And it’s time we find these rats and we send them back home, that are living off the American taxpayers, that are working very hard every week”
Tuberville says ‘inner city rats’ live off the American taxpayers: Trump should send them ‘back home’
"These inner city rats, they live on the federal government," Tuberville said in the interview.

Just in NIH grants, It looks like beautiful Iowa City, home of the U of Iowa, will lose $71m in funding. That's almost $1k per resident. And that's before all the other cuts to SSA, FDA, etc.
Anyone in Iowa City that can offer more insight?
