the good news for the rest of the world, of course, is that highly skilled individuals will be available to other nations now.

tech companies will lose access to these people, and will start to look at investing in facilities in other countries

i can see Canada profiting HUGELY from this policy!!!

“We have defeated ISIS in Syria, my only reason for being there during the Trump Presidency.”

Thinking back to this episode from Trump 1.0 for no particular reason.

This vote basically ensures health insurance becomes unaffordable for millions. It’s not hyperbole to say that Americans will die because of it. We all know Republicans do not care about this, we’d all hoped that Democrats did. So shit like this is as embarrassing as it is deflating.

A man rushed to the Broadview ICE facility searching for his wife. They followed every legal step, but ICE took her into another room and she vanished. He tracked her phone there when the signal died. Police told him to “look up her name online.” He sat in the parking lot, weeping, with no answers.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

It’s exhausting to watch poll-tested, donor-beholden congressional Democrats continue to be too old, too cloistered, and too bumbling to do anything as the government burns.
