Americans are so oppressed & manipulated that the majority actually BELIEVE that being taken care by our government is “a handout”. WRONG. It’s OUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK FOR US.

Basic care is labeled “socialism” as a way to SCARE & REPEL people. WRONG. It’s just “a government by & for the people”.

The jurors did not swallow the government's case

They had no appetite to convict

The government tried to get them to bite, but couldn't

So the jurors spit out an acquittal

We just wanted to say thank you to everyone! ICE agents keep lying under oath, and you’re the reason the truth is coming out.

Your videos and documentation have been crucial in revealing the truth behind those claims.

ICE Plans Cash Rewards for Private Bounty Hunters to Locate and Track Immigrants

Companies hired by ICE would be given bundles of information on 10,000 immigrants at a time to locate — and paid cash bonuses for performance.

Tornado tracks by rating (left) and duration (right)

While highly rated/long-tracked tornadoes are biased towards the Southeast, long-duration tors are found even up to the High Plains.

When corporate interests tell farmers that they can’t fix their own equipment, they should know they’ve crossed a line.

My bill would make it clear that Congress's loyalties are with America’s farmers – not the multinational conglomerates who are rolling them over a barrel.

If you're going to make in-kind donations to a food bank, please try to give relatively fresh stuff. Tonight our peer support specialist for the house brought us a box from the food bank bc we all depend on SNAP & lot of stuff was past their date. Elderly Housemate was disappointed by old pears. 😮‍💨

FYI, those obnoxious message windows that pop up when you try to read an article on-line -- and won't go away until you click the "X" -- those are called "modal dialog boxes."

They seem to be popping up everywhere these days, don't they. And we hate them, don't we.

Text from a friend:

Just an idea for you to tweet (or whatever you use these days)

An alternative strategy for limiting flights from major airports would be closing small (private jet) airports and sending those air traffic controllers to the main hubs.

But that would impact private jets and that would be terrible.

Did you know that more than 1 billion pounds of pesticides are used in the US every year?

And they don't just disappear. They pollute the air, water, and soil long after they're applied.

Tell the EPA to ban #pesticides that other countries already consider too dangerous to use ➡️ bit.ly/4otOUCz

Politicians can get away with lying to people for quite a while about a lot of different subjects, but they have never been able to get away with lying to them about how much things cost.
