LA: “They took a US citizen father out and left a toddler in the backseat. Two heavily armed border patrol agents got in that car and drove the child and the vehicle away.”

What are we doing?

Please highlight this story.

ICE stormed into the wrong house, trashed the place, and made women/girls stand outside in the rain in their underwear. ICE also stole phones, laptops, and cash savings from the family, who moved to OKC two weeks ago.

🚨NEW: Four weeks ago, Trump terminated funding for legal services to support unaccompanied children.

Now, children as young as 4 years old are having to represent themselves in court when facing deportation.

How does America come back from this?

You know that scene in Braveheart where Wallace is betrayed by the Scottish nobles and he chases one down and finds out it was Robert-the-Bruce.

And then Wallace just lays on the ground in disbelief at the betrayal?

That’s how I feel right now. Chuck Schumer is a weaker Robert the Bruce.

“Transitioning” from 50 straight months of job growth, a 400% rise in manufacturing construction and the best back-to-back years for the stock market in a quarter century. 🤡
Mike Johnson: "We're transitioning from Bidenomics and the terrible economy that was delivered by the last administration. It takes a while to turn that ship around."

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.

Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.

Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

“This week, Trump falsely accused Ukraine of starting the war and repeated talking points of the Russian president, saying it was time for an election in Ukraine because "this could have been settled very easily." - This is how it’s done. Clear eyed local journalism conveying what’s at stake.

This period under Musk/Trump feels like early February in 2020—when a terrible thing was happening with breakneck speed, and the people paying close attention were hair-on-fire about it while the rest of the country carried on as normal.

Children’s Hospital of Pennsylvania has indirect rate of 70%, but they probably didn’t want to list that atop Harvard because defunding a children’s hospital might be perceived as problematic.

This is devastating
These overhead rates are negotiated. Lowering it unilaterally to 15% is another way to destroy science in the US. Can’t wait to see what’s next.

What’s the effect of the federal grant freeze in the field of education? No head start funds for pre-k, no IDEA funds for disabled children, no Title I funds to fund academic opportunities. Medicaid? That pays for speech therapy, OT, PT, aide supports for some students.
