as John Lennon once said, sometimes karma happens right away.
Avelo Airlines has a big contract with ICE to do charter deportation flights, but according to public statements, flight data, and internal messages, a number of serious safety lapses are making ICE air a dangerous fiasco. From @gbrockell.bsky.social:

i really hope we take the Epstein Files a lot more seriously than we took the Pamama Papers

nothing says "this is a hoax, pay no attention to it" like using the Situation Room
Q: "Why are White House officials…meeting with Rep. Boebert in an effort to try to get her to not sign this petition calling for the release of the [Epstein] files?"

Leavitt: "I'm not going to detail conversations that took place in the situation room."

i know there is a greed based reason somewhere for all these attacks on over the counter pain relievers, but it sure seems like this administration just wants everyone to be walking around with a headache.
JD Vance calls ibuprofen "useless medication" and implies it's not "necessary, safe and effective."

Nuremburg trials is the moderate position
He said that the agents would throw food at them to eat. The agents threatened to withhold food for a week and to beat him up if he didn't sign deportation papers. He said he saw others refuse and get beaten/receive no food. He signed because he was afraid.

34 people killed in 50 days. Their guilt or innocence unknown, for an alleged crime that doesn't carry a death sentence. That's a lot of death.
