DHS is delaying millions in already approved North Carolina recovery funds, documents show Communities across the region still need to be reimbursed for about a hundred projects including debris removal, waste water treatment repairs, roads and bridges, damaged buildings and parks, as well ...

The Department of Homeland Security is holding up more than $100 million preapproved dollars intended to help hurricane-battered North Carolina clean up storm damage and fix infrastructure, according to documents obtained by The Post.

A little math about that prison camp in Florida. $450 million per year for 3,000 people is $150,000/person per year.
The cost for one person receiving SNAP for one year is $2256, yet they're telling us that's too expensive.

Dear journalists: if you willfully resist asking confrontational questions of this demonstrably corrupt regime out of fear of losing access, that access is absolutely worthless. If self-censorship is the trade-off, we don’t need your stenographic skills. We don’t need you at all.

Dems should fight on every front.

If Texas steals 5 seats, Dem states should redistrict 30 GOP members out of their districts.

We should insist DOJ release the entire Epstein File.

Not only shouldn't we bring knives to a gun fight, if they bring pistols, we should bring machine guns.

It’s fucked up that everyone on the right accused everyone on the left of being pedophiles for over a decade β€” only to end up defending their cult leader when he transferred the world’s most notorious convicted pedophile into a luxury prison.

A reminder: The perpetrators in the Epstein files are Oligarchs, and so are the ones protecting them.

Donald Trump posts AI video showing Barack Obama arrested by FBI: 'No one is above the law'

Just an occasional reminder that there was no good reason for Obama, Harris, Clinton or Biden to go to Trump’s inauguration after he attacked the Capitol and they all went anyway. Cause the Democrats are chumps.

Peoria sushi shop owner faces deportation after 21 years of living in the US Kelly Yu, who does not have legal status in the U.S., is in ICE custody in Arizona, leaving her business, customers and family behind.

"Her businesses, known for donating meals to homeless shelters, supporting local police, providing funding for high school baseball teams...

β€œShe gives back to the community, creates jobs for young people, pays taxes. Why would you want to remove someone like that?”

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

I'd just like to point out how weird it is that places with hundreds or even thousands of reporters β€” the NYT, WaPo, CBS, NBC, AP, etc. β€” are all getting pummeled on every major story by the dozen computerboys at Wired. To fumble the bag this consistently is, at some point, cowardice and a choice.

Remember when the White House trotted out their mouthpieces while pretending that they were gonna release Epstein's client list? I wonder how it feels to have fooled the rubes in their party.

The people who lost children and other loved ones in the Texas floods are owed honest answers from officials. They should be told why flash flood warnings issued hours earlier were not conveyed to people in the path of the water. They don’t need more prayers from politicians. They need answers.

Head of local weather warnings takes early retirement as NOAA cuts continue Yura has over 32 years experience, spending more than half of his career at the NWS Austin/San Antonio office.

someone somewhere with a large enough platform will state the obvious root cause, right?

We have built FEMA, NOAA, the Weather Service, NASA and the EPA to address the historic challenge of climate change and the Trump Administration has spent time since January making reckless, unlawful, unconstitutional and anti constitutional decisions to destroy their capacity.

What I want to know is why haven’t we heard on CNN or MSNBC about Trump golfing while children are dying? If that was Obama, they would be calling for his head on a platter! What a pathetic double standard!

As Floods Hit, Key Roles Were Vacant at Weather Service Offices in Texas (Gift Article) Some experts say staff shortages might have complicated forecasters’ ability to coordinate responses with local emergency management officials.

β€œThe Weather Service’s nearby San Antonio office … had significant vacancies ….

β€œThat office’s warning coordination meteorologist left on April 30, after taking the early retirement package the Trump administration used to reduce the number of federal employees.”

3/ without any grounding in factual details pass these things on. The claims are really preposterous if you consider that they're actually claiming that the population of the country may have gone up close to 10% just because of people illegally crossing the border in four years.
