Uncle Jeffy Tiedrich says today in his newsletter:
"Hereβs one sure way you can tell youβre living in a shithole country: when the following two headlines appear one after another."
The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M, to detain 4k people of whom only 30 were accused of violent crimes.
$9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst". Plus two citizens murdered.

So the United States will only use empty warehouses to house people it wants to terrorize, not people it wants to shelter from the cold.
We really are not a very good-natured country.
kind of crazy to see republicans attack thomas massie for doing the thing they demanded for years (release the epstein files)
15.02.2026 22:30 β π 5200 π 608 π¬ 61 π 19Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. Itβs always a matter of will not resources.

Pam Bondi has been a complete and total failure at her job. The Epstein survivors showed more courage just by being in that room than she did under oath. She refused to answer questions and chose complicity.
America deserves better.
one of my strongest beliefs is that we're in our situation right now bc some of the most prominent talking heads (e.g. joe rogan, andrew schulz) are learning about politics in their 40s and 50s, instead of their teens and early 20s, and we have to go along for the ride as they learn basic things
