They should quit lying to us about their mission. Obviously, they are not just detaining criminals, they're not just deporting people. The fact is there is no immigration 'crisis' in the USA that warrants any of these actions.

And 50 years ago...we were encouraged to convert...so it would be less of a dramatic and costly shift.... Now people claim you are making this a crisis... People and their simple minds always amaze me. Humans are nature.

The Trump administration is trying to repeal the Roadless Rule and open up 45 million acres of national forests to clear-cut logging and road construction.

The public comment period ends TOMORROW.

Take action now to protect our national forests: regulations.gov/commenton/FS-2025-0001-0001.

Next year, Americans will see the biggest jump in health insurance costs in 15 years.

Meanwhile, the six largest health insurers raked in more than $31 billion in net income last year.

Still not sure if we need Medicare for All?

Note to self. When you have several people applying for the same job...don't hire the one who is a heroin addict, has had part of their brain eaten by a worm...and is artificially the color of an old penny that's been sitting in the back of a desk drawer for 40 years. Just don't.
