But in hundreds of cases, the tool's determinations were wrong.

So you're saying ICE is incompatible with the rule of law as practiced in this nation from the founding?

Think I see a pretty easy solution here, champ.

Jasmine Crockett: Why are folks protecting a 34-count convicted felon while America crumbles? People are dying, rights are eroding and families are suffering? GOP priorities scream corruption. Demand better. Hold them accountable. The country's watching. #sheshed

Wow.

I think that cozying up to a convicted child sex offender, taking his money for your projects, and talking to him about how great he is are all worthy of moral condemnation even if they are not crimes.

The limits of good behavior do not start and end with what’s legal.

Yikes. 40% of respondents are either completely oblivious to what’s happening in this country or they like the cruelty.

Either way, Trump’s signature issue is sinking him.

The economic cost of Brexit has just been laid bare – and it’s devastating A decade on, the economic cost of Brexit has just been laid bare – and it’s devastating. Here's what the figures say.

Because of Brexit, the UK GDP is 6–8% lower than it would have been, business investment is 18% lower than in comparable economies, and both employment and productivity are around 4% lower. Can’t wait to see in a decade how Trump has damaged the US economically.

Ossoff: "Among today's false prophets are the election deniers who indulge this president's obsession with overturning the 2020 election. Hear me when I say this -- they tell a lie so absurd, and therefore so debasing, that the act of telling it proves the teller's total and humiliating submission."

Need ID for beer, but not voting? That’s misleading Supporters of the Save America Act’s photo voter ID requirement say people need their ID to buy beer. Laws for alcohol purchases vary. (Just like voting ID laws.)

36 states request or require voters to show some form of ID at the polls. The remaining 14 states and D.C., require no form of identification, but they use other methods to verify voters' identities, such as matching signatures or asking for personal information.
