This isn’t data, it’s a warning. Serious 30 month and 9 month rainfall deficiency in the Mt Lofties, SE SA and the Otways…levels which in the past have led to catastrophic bushfires. Prepare people…clean up, repair, save cash and insure. And join community agencies now. #auspol

Trump promised to lower costs on Day 1.
9 months later, families are paying more for groceries and electricity, and soon they’ll be paying DOUBLE for health care premiums.
House Republicans must report back to work and negotiate a compromise to prevent a health care crisis.

Let’s be clear: deporting Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Uganda makes no sense—it’s not his home country. Nothing about this process has been fair. ICE is targeting him with cruelty. This is the weaponization of government, not justice.
Kilmar Abrego Garcia detained by ICE during Baltimore check-in
The detention, which was expected, happened after Abrego Garcia walked into the Immigration and Customs Enforcement building in Baltimore for a check-in after being released from custody on Friday.
