NEW: ICE is planning to build a shadow deportation network in Texas. A proposal outlines a 24/7 transport operation run by armed contractors—turning Texas into the logistical backbone of an industrialized deportation machine.

My latest @wired.com: www.wired.com/story/ice-is...

Early planning documents reviewed by WIRED describe a statewide transport grid designed for steady detainee transfers across Texas, with ICE estimating each trip to average 100 miles. Every county would have its own small, around-the-clock team of contractors collecting immigrants from local authorities deputized by ICE. It is a subtle transfer of the physical custody process into the hands of a private security firm—authorized to carry firearms and perform transport duties “in any and all local, county, state, and ICE locations.”

After I post about feeding and providing health care to our children, some rightwing inbred with earwax for brains. responds with some shit about abortion. DUDE wake the fuck up. Don’t talk to me about abortion until
you’re ready to take care of the children already born.

Mike Johnson allowing Jeffrey Epstein to keep Arizona’s 7th congressional district without representation for now nearly 8 months.

700,000 more Epstein victims thanks to enabler Mike Johnson, who has weaponized the files against them.

Private equity gave $10M to Trump's inauguration. He gave them greater access to Americans' 401(k)s.

DuPont and Dow Chemical gave $750K. Trump exempted them from an air pollution rule.

Intuit gave $1M. Trump killed the IRS Direct File Program.

Everything is for sale.

Remember who did what in the run up…when it was easy to hide from it. Not when the exit strategy was already being executed.

I'm not a fan of online medical diagnosing from videos. But all the symptoms put together seem to lend credence to this one.

BTW, neither he nor Bannon are "joking" about a 3rd term. But it seems highly unlikely he'll survive this one.

My message to MAGA on X:
Schumer Shutdown yourselves, all day
Nobody is letting the Epstein report come out and that's why it's closed. One vote from us will change this. If you can't handle the truth, stay our of politics. It's only serial pedophilia you're protecting.

Watching an Instagram Reel where a guy explains that instead of cutting to a commercial, the Japanese broadcast will just zoom in on Shohei Ohtani as he stands idly or drinks water from a cup. Honestly, that sounds like a much better system
