It's outrageous that Spotify is running ICE ads. I'm moving to another streaming platform that doesn't profit from exploiting artists while recruiting for ICE. #CancelSpotify app.sosha.ai/s/0tYdsS8l

Speaking freely is a right, it matters deeply to us. When pundits & politicians vilify folks who stand up for their beliefs, I ask "Why?" Is it about safety...or control? It's not about patriotism. Democracy can’t be defended by silence. Speak up #TruthBrigade truthbrigade.indivisible.org/s/WcMMDBth

The administration thinks it will replace the immigrant workforce with Medicaid recipients. Sorry, that won't fly. Of the 34 million "able bodied" on Medicaid, 92% already work or meet the new Medicaid work requirements through care giving, school, or other means. Oops - think again!
Brooke Rollins on farm laborers: "There will be no amnesty. The mass deportations continue, but in a strategic way. And we move the workforce toward automation and 100% American participation, which with 34 million able-bodied on Medicaid we should be able to do fairly quickly."

Frum: What a tariff is, is the equivalent of hitting yourself in the head. And he’s saying to the world: “We will not stop hitting ourselves in the head unless you all agree to hit yourselves in the head.”

Federal budget bill would boost logging — but cut funds to Oregon timber counties
The proposed budget bill would increase logging on federal lands, but most of that money won't go to Oregon counties that typically receive a portion of timber sales.

In the Republican reconciliation bill, ICE gets $45 billion - a 365% increase. It's more money than the combined budget for all 50 state prison systems. It's more than the administration's cuts to NIH, CDC, and cancer research combined. The priority is clear - they're building a police state.

The good news is, the bad news is...the administration's goal of defunding the USFS may thwart their efforts to harvest timber and build roads in areas protected by the roadless rule.
