My parents have gotten a new dog (cute!). However, they can't agree on a name, and now my mom is calling it Winston and my dad has gone with Mueller.

📽️ WATCH: The U.S. government doesn’t track how often immigration agents detain citizens. So ProPublica did.

We found more than 170 incidents since the start of Trump’s second term. Americans have been kicked, dragged and held for days without access to lawyers.

You cannot crowdsource 8 billion dollars to make up for the loss of SNAP in November.

Or you could, through your taxes, if the law were being followed.

It is unlawful for the Trump Administration to leave the SNAP contingency fund untapped.

Substack is an industrial scale thief of time. Instead of two awful paragraphs any editor would've cut, we're treated to a guaranteed 30 seconds of drivel by basically anyone writing on the platform.

And those 2 paragraphs are basically every The Argument preview before the paywall

In and out of the ER without once ever seeing an actual doctor. This is a major regional facility. 🤷🏼
Rural healthcare crisis indeed: everyone on the treatment team is not a doctor. Physician’s assistant, RN, warm body, but not a doc. Not even the radiologist is a doc.

Why @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, @chucktingle.bsky.social et al won't is clear: they THINK their reelection is locked up. They know the Americans who care don't have another option. And the second level leadership in the party is doing what they did with Biden: pretending nothing is wrong!

Word to the wise: do not fly internationally into Logan. All of the major public detainments of Legal Residents and Citizens at airports have been out of Logan.
Anyone in Boston an immigration lawyer or know one who can help this woman? Her husband is detained at Logan over a dismissed misdemeanor from 2017. He’s a legal resident of the US. She just asked for help an hour ago.
