I'm not in classics but could it be ante Christum? Not widely used, same meaning as BC.

Disturbing! I'm old enough to remember that DHS is a pretty new agency. They've proven themselves manifestly incompetent and should have their responsibilities reallocated/reorganized. Not another penny of our tax dollars. No more ICE, no more CBP.

Yes! Thank you for the clear language. They are drunk with power and have abandoned humanity. Congress can and must stand up.

This seems important.

Hard agree.

We've had a glimpse of this already with the USIP takeover. It is naive to act otherwise under a regime propping itself up on fear and bullying, ignoring public consent and law.

Get your goon situation in order, friends!

Intuit voted for it. I have received multiple emails from TurboTax in the last two weeks talking about how great this bill is ('see how you can take advantage of new deductions!' 'contact us to see how much the OBBB will save on your taxes!'). Sent to junk, will never use their products again.

They remember faces! Bring it some bugs and she'll have a minion in no time!

Cory Booker.

Epic.

I often do not have words and he has 25 hours of cogent ones, and counting.

Thank you, Senator.

Hey Bluesky friends! Yesterday (!) the DoE added a feature to their student loan website that shows the amount of qualifying payments made toward forgiveness. Don't forget to download/make a copy ASAP!

Cozy Blue pic (that's a heated throw, she's in heaven) because student loans are stressful. ❀️
