New Trump administration rule will bar green-card holders from applying for SBA loans The new rule, which goes into effect March 1, says only firms owned by citizens or U.S. nationals will qualify for Small Business Administration loans.

What the hell are we doing here? What possible benefit is this to the economy? Immigrants start new businesses in much higher proportions!

Fundamentally, Republicans want Americans to die.

That’s the message from blocking new lifesaving vaccines.

That’s the message from gutting FEMA.

That’s the message from their street goons gunning people down.

Republicans hate Americans and want us dead.

I made a chart of Minnesota federal lawsuits with captions of β€œv. [Bondi/Noem/Easterwood/Lyons/Trump]” over the last three months. Almost all of these are immigration habeas corpus cases.

Every photo from Minneapolis looks like this. Cops decked out with guns and full tac gear facing off against people in bathrobes, parkas, and sweatpants armed only with whistles and cell phones.

Yet every verified MAGA chode on X dutifully calls it a riot or violent insurrection.

Idaho families sue over immigration raid that swept up hundreds, including U.S. citizens β€” NBC News About 400 people, including children and U.S. citizens, were detained for four hours while they were denied food and water in the raid, according to the lawsuit.

More than 400 people, including hundreds of citizens, were β€œsorted” at gun point into racial and ethnic groups by 200 ICE agents who fired flash-bang grenades into cars with people inside, pointed guns at children & demanded their zip tied parents not comfort them. apple.news/Ausdx6kWtT0e...

Brett Favre is a fucking moron.
He said he's "going to stick to what he knows", which is Kid Rock and Lee Brice (whoever the fuck that is). What an idiot. If he stuck to what he knew, he'd be stealing money from needy families while holding a football.πŸ–•
