FOX: “Nothing is sacrosanct. Everything is on the table, and that includes (cutting) Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security…”

As we have warned about over and over — And as they cut those programs, they will cut taxes for the rich (again). they don’t care about the debt.

JUST HITTING THE DOCKET:

The GA Court of Appeals has cancelled the oral arguments scheduled for December 5th in Trump & other defendants’ appeal of Judge McAfee’s decision not to disqualify Fulton County DA Fani Willis.

A new date is not yet identified.

It means that the oral arguments that were going to take place on 12/5 aren’t happening. This was the appeal taken by Trump & some of his co-defendants on Judge McAfee’s denial of their motion to disqualify Fani Willis.

The order doesn’t say why it was continued. I’ll try to find out.

A lot of people are asking, “What can we do to protect our parks from being destroyed by the Trump admin?” Let’s be honest, the next four years are going to be tough. Just like the first term, we anticipate a relentless assault on the environment-maybe even worse, now that lessons were learned. 1/4

Doing some research for an upcoming article on the last “mass deportation” of Mexicans during the 1930’s.

Over half of those deported were US citizens.
