Legislative nerds will also note that House Republicans are using a Senate-passed bill (on a different subject) as a vehicle for the new SAVE America Act.

That is being done for procedural reasons in the Senate. /fin

Just a quick update from the Twin Cities. (Please forgive the unsolicited message). THINGS ARE NOT BETTER IN MINNEAPOLIS. The media is mostly moving on, Trump is focused on other stuff, BUT NOTHING HAS CHANGED ON THE GROUND. More than 2,000 DHS thugs continue to roam the streets, abducting people 24/7, assaulting legal observers with impunity, and routinely denying 1st, 4th, and 5th amendment rights. Drones and helicopters are overhead every day. Hundreds and hundreds of terrified families have not left their homes since mid-December ... relying on the community to bring them food and help with rent and other necessities. (Those people are NOT violent drug cartel sex offending murderers, as DHS would tell you. Most are legal residents or citizens.)  If anything, things have just become more stressful and intractable (think trench warfare as a suitable metaphor): The resistance is better organized and numerous, but DHS has become more clever and better at disguise... and the county sheriff's office is increasingly supporting them . Do not let anyone tell you that Homans (the new person in charge of the occupation) is making anything better. Do not let anyone tell you that 700 ICE agents leaving the city has made much of a difference; the remaining force (again, ~2,000) is still larger than the entire city's police force (which is legally unable to do anything). Please call your congressional reps ... especially if there is any chance the administration might listen to them.

Stumbled across the post of person sharing how everything happening in Minnesota now feels and that they donโ€™t think anyone in the world knows how itโ€™s affecting them physically and mentally. So I just wanted to say, as a Ukrainian. I think I do know. What I see in Minnesota reminds me very much of

If "many fewer" is followed by "than," it could be OK. But like you, I would write "far fewer" with or without "than."

A survey with ground-penetrating radar as used by archeologists might well uncover the girls buried there.

It would be a very long and probably expensive process, but who's counting?

The point is not to charge JE with murder, too late. Could charge Ghislaine and also identity the missing girls.

Kyiv.
We had one hour of electricity and were told weโ€™ll get about 1.5-2 hours a day (yes, out of 24 hours).
The boiler heated water,
I washed my hair,
charged the EcoFlow (not fully).

Thatโ€™s all.
These are the consequences of russian attacks.

I quite often post the map showing approximate flight paths of Russia's missiles and drones after the worst attacks.

This time, Ukraine is almost invisible under the multi-coloured lines - I don't remember it being that bad before.

Bad idea. ICE is pre-funded by the BBB. Also, CBP is just as bad if not worse and also pre-funded by the BBB. Severing ICE gives away any leverage we have to shut down the rest of DHS. We should be demanding to defund ICE/CBP of its BBB money and shut down ALL of DHS if they donโ€™t agree.

This is overt racism. Full stop. Thereโ€™s no โ€˜misinterpretationโ€™ and no excuse. This is who he is, who heโ€™s always been, and why he should never be anywhere near power again. And thereโ€™s a reason the tapes from The Apprentice have never been released.

Greetings from Kyiv
and a warcoffee after the workout.

The repairman fixed the windows, and I hope the little warmth we still have will now stay inside the flat.

1,126 high-rise buildings on the left bank of Kyiv (where I live) remain without heating after the latest russian attack.

Swear to god, ICE could just announce they're leaving a city but not leave and the media will just stop covering that city completely even though ICE never left.

It's what ICE and the media did with LA and they're doing it with Minneapolis too

ICE was already PREFUNDED for 4 YEARS in the OBBB passed in July. The money is in a slush fund. So if you give away the rest you give away everything. Do these people think we are stupid? They must.

WHAT in the sweet Lord's name is the "electric room"?

@rokhanna.bsky.social and Thomas Massie need to press hard to get Elon subpoenad to answer that and dozens of other questions. At penalty of Federal contract cancellation for a no-show.
