ICE Needs To Be Reined In Immediately….

BREAKING: The ICE agent who shot a Chicago woman five times and then fled to Maine in the ICE vehicle now has a WARRANT out for his arrest for the incident. He is facing up to 20 years in prison. 👏 GOOD. But he should get locked away for life.

Opinion | America is in an ‘education depression.’ This solution is a no-brainer. Democrats can regain the educational (and moral) high ground with this federal program.

This is probably the 7th or 8th video I've seen of ICE or BP trying to handcuff someone who is still, on the ground, but they still can't seem to get the cuffs on. I don't understand what's up here.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

As a lifelong Floridian, my experience with DeSantis is that he will sell anything or anyone for political influence.

How a young Jefferson’s plea to the King helped ignite America’s fight for independence In the summer of 1774 Jefferson retreated to Monticello and wrote a secret plea meant to avert disputes with the British — a document that instead helped set America on the path to independence.

(gift article) Jefferson's writings abt equality are known. I'd argue, if he felt unequivocally that all men weren't created equal, he & his cohorts would have said included it in the Declaration. I could say more but won't.

Andrew Cuomo @andrewcuomo• 54m I've said it before and I'll say it again: A vote for Sliwa is a vote for Mamdani. And here's the proof: just this past March, Sliwa was openly supporting Mamdani to be the elected Democratic representative. ...So, is Sliwa staying in this race just to help Mamdani win? We are so close to winning this election, even with Sliwa still in the race, but it will only happen if everyone gets out and votes. Today is the last day of early voting and Election Day is this Tuesday. Take the time. Make your voice heard. Let's WIN this. #VoteforCuomo CURTIS SLIWA APPEARED WITH ZOHRAN MAMDANI CAR AL V We will FORGET! FOR MAMDANT JUSTIC A FORGO 9 Mayoral Candidates Unite to Attack Cuomo on Nursing Home Deaths Nearly all the people running for New York City mayor appeared at a Covid memorial event with a shared message: Former Gov. Andrew M. Cuomos pandemic response is a reason not to support him. ▶ Listen to this article • 5:24 min Learn more Share full article 39

So Andrew Cuomo posts this tweet saying that Curtis Sliwa was campaigning for Mamdani in March.

That’s a lie.

All mayoral candidates, except for Cuomo, gathered at a memorial for Covid deaths and to denounce Cuomo’s nursing home deaths.

WTF?

You should be so lucky for someone to leak your healthcare plan, for that would show that you have one.

Marko is right. It's that research - real research done correctly - is expensive and most often slow and long.

The ‘Shadow President’ Dismantling The Government : Fresh Air In a New Yorker article co-published with ProPublica, reporter Andy Kroll describes Russell Vought, director of the Office of Management and Budget, as a "shadow president" with oversized influence. “...

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year.

That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.

Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

I cannot believe there are still people in my mentions arguing that boycotting an election because the candidates aren’t addressing your issue is a way to get them to pay attention.

They "created" her. They used her like a weapon against the Democrats. She was faithful to the MAGA GOP. All she wanted was to run for senator in her home state, so she could be even more effective in doing their bidding. And they told her "no?" Well, MAGA GOP, enjoy hell.
