Charlotte friends, if you know an org that needs whistles, you know who to call. 💕
I'm seeing people wonder why ICE is going after Charlotte.
ICE has been at war with Charlotte's sheriff ever since he won in 2018.
We'd covered this at Bolts back in the day; this quote is from that sheriff:

We'd covered this at Bolts back in the day; this quote is from that sheriff:
“When the 8 African American sheriffs took over the largest counties in North Carolina, it became a threat to the good ol’ boy system,” says the sheriff of Charlotte. These new sheriffs broke ties with ICE.
But GOP lawmakers cracked down this week, overbidding the governor’s veto to adopt this law:

made a similar point on the opinions podcast this week in response to the idea that epstein is a dead end. not only are actual voters interested in this but it divides the gop and puts pressure on the president. it would be political malpractice to treat it as a sideshow
The usual suspects are telling Dems that Epstein won’t win elections, get back to “affordability” and I think my head might explode. www.offmessage.net/p/force-a-re...

It divides Republicans much more than "affordability" or any other economic issue.

You disgusting old meat sack, there isn’t fucking wiggle room when it comes to pedophiles. This is like saying “Well, if the bullet was 2 inches to the right it wouldn’t have killed him, so it wasn’t technically murder.” Twisted-ass weirdo. And screw News Nation for putting Prof. Perv on the air.
Dershowitz: The predecessor on your show described Epstein as a convicted pedophile. He pleaded guilty to one count of having sex for money with a 17-year-and-10-month-old person. That’s not a pedophile.

“Of the 16 arrestees with criminal histories — or about 2.5% of the 614 people — five involved domestic battery, two were related to drunken driving.”
I’d be willing to bet the percentage of ICE/CBP agents with similar records is not very different. Of course they won’t provide names to check.

This makes zero sense …. Unless the government is being run by people who love eugenics. Oh …wait …
It really seems like this administration is trying to eliminate the field of public health. MPHs and DrPHs will no longer be considered "professional degrees" by the DOE and, therefore, will face limits to accessing federal student loans.
