Empathy and humanity are words apparently not in the ICE dictionary.

Sending strength to Joe Biden as he begins radiation and hormone therapy for prostate cancer. Few people have given more of themselves in service to this country. Wishing him comfort and healing surrounded by family and love.

I call BS. Oct 18 will be many thousands of peaceful Americans exercising their right to free speech at over 2000 locations across the country. The feds may try to instigate violence, but we will not take the bait. ⏬️

Regarding the Compact | MIT Organization Chart Dear members of the MIT community,

MIT rejects Compact

"The premise of the document is inconsistent with our core belief that scientific funding should be based on scientific merit alone...America’s leadership in science & innovation depends on independent thinking....Therefore, with respect, we cannot support the proposed approach"

The regime’s proposed approach to avoid β€œimmediate dangers to the American food supply” due to a lack of migrant agricultural workers (because the regime is injuring, killing, and disappearing them)?

Bringing in β€œguest workers” through the H-2A program at even *lower* wages.

So, near-slave labour.

It's been two weeks since Adelita Grijalva was elected and Mike Johnson has still refused to seat her, unlike in past cases where he swore in new members within 24 hours.

There cannot be one set of rules for Rs and another for Ds.

Also, release the damn Epstein files already.

Trump keeps threatening to use the Insurrection Act. What is it? President Donald Trump has said repeatedly he could invoke the 1807 statute, which gives the president the power to deploy the U.S. military domestically.

The Insurrection Act gives the president power to deploy the U.S. military domestically and to federalize National Guard troops during specific circumstances. It has been used before, but not in decades.

She didn't say no because, obviously, the answer is yes. She was trying to avoid perjury charges by stonewalling--throughout the hearing.

Hoo boy.

I imagine the pictures and videos are probably much worse and Trump is not the only one included in this.
