The distance between a legal resident who's not a citizen being deported without due process and a citizen being deported without due process is a hell of a lot shorter than many folks seem to believe, and when it does happen to a citizen, just remember it started here and who was quiet in response.

My cab driver in Kyiv was terrified by Trump's declaration that Ukraine was to blame for Russia's invasion. But he also said that if his country falls, he couldn't blame US voters, given that they never saw Kamala Harris at a UFC fight or on the Joe Rogan Experience.

This matters. Not because I think Trump is capable of mercy or empathy towards these vulnerable groups. But because it is a public act of defiance.
Contrast that with all these other powerful people in this country signaling nothing but appeasement and obedience.

Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"

Senior CISA and FBI officials just held a background call to brief reporters on the status of their investigation into Chinese hacking of U.S. and foreign telecom companies.
It sounds like telecoms are a long way from being able to evict the Chinese hackers from their networks.

Yesterday I picked up trash on ½ of our frontage on the beach road. Counted 20 cigarette butts and 1 plastic coffee cup lid.
My preliminary findings shows smokers are 1900% more filthy than coffee drinkers. Results will be updated as new data comes in as this is an ongoing area of study.
