It's important for people to understand that we're on a trajectory that eventually leads to political prisoners (first non-citizens, then citizens) being sent to these camps.

Still very much open for any editing or mentoring work that's out there. Been a bit of a dry spell so I could be doing with some cash coming in. Reposts appreciated.
With the Arthurian book in the polishing stage, I find there's a bit of a lull in the editing / book doctoring work, so if anyone out there is looking for an in-depth structural edit, feel free to hit me up. I do mentoring too these days, by Zoom or Skype, and am quite happy to work with all levels.

It's not deporting if they don't come from there. That's what the de- part means; it's the reversal of the -porting into the country. The word you're looking for is *exported*. They've been *exported*. As in a trade. As in human fucking trafficking.

Commentary: “While Trump’s government proudly touts its ‘savings,’ the reality is that DOGE’s cuts are built on lies, mismanagement, and outright cruelty.”
DOGE Is a Cruel Joke. The Punchline Is Making Life Hell for Veterans
Elon Musk and his so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) are making reckless cuts that are devastating the lives of veterans.

Trump did more to help free the Tate brothers and allow them to flee to Florida than he did to help the WV victims of recent floods. Nobody cares less about working folks than MAGA. It’s a grift that preys upon the ignorant & addled.

Andrew Tate being allowed to come to the U.S. and avoid facing trial for sex trafficking in Romania is beyond stomach-churning. This man is a HUGE influencer and uses his platform/following to further abuse women who have accused him. Now he won’t face justice, reaffirming his lies to his followers

BREAKING: House Republicans just passed their budget resolution 217-215 that would virtually guarantee deep cuts to Medicaid and food stamps, all to fund a major tax break for the ultrawealthy... and still add trillions to the national debt.

Maybe corny but it was helpful for me to hear Henry Rollins saying "this is not time to be dismayed, this is punk rock time, this is what Joe Strummer trained you for... You can be thunderous in your own life, to the eight people around you. That rubs off... Goodness is viral"

and put it in the context of the pardons he's given out already, as not just permission but as a promise.

it's a statement made in the general, "he who...", it's not even *primarily* about presidential power, it's a statement of principle as to how the system will operate henceforth

No coincidence — Musk’s attack on the CFPB came as he cut a deal with Visa to go into a payment business the CFPB has been regulating to make sure people don’t get ripped off.

His companies have been investigated by many agencies he is dismantling.

When you see a conservative influencer calling the Kendrick performance a DEI thing it’s worth keeping in mind just how many conservative influencers are failed screenwriters/stand ups/filmmakers who only understand any form of art through a lens of spite
