I absolutely support the programs this money would go to... but good gollly! The taxes & fees (aside from actual services) we pay on EVERYTHING is already so outrageous... all non-food items, gas, electricity, water/waste, natural gas, cell phone/internet services, automobile registrations... enough

Nannies play a vital role across our elephant units, helping newly rescued orphan elephants feel secure and loved. Their nurturing presence has been instrumental in Kipekee's recovery, which has seen her transform from fragile on the brink of death, to playful, mischievous and full of life.

White woman here... we grew up with a family friend who we ALL (multiple generations) referred to as Aunt Lila. She was a member of our family for decades and helped care for our grandmother as she descended into alzheimers.
She was a beloved, adopted family member.

That’s right folks, knowing basic facts about one of the formative events of Western history makes you a threat to the nation

"When I heard him say that, I smiled," recalled Brian Purnell, one of Mr. Mamdani's former professors at Bowdoin College. He also noted that Mr. Mamdani's reference to freedom was a nod to Haiti's status as the first republic founded by former slaves.
"That's straight out of the lessons from the Haitian Revolution that we teach in Africana studies," said Dr. Purnell, who is now the chair of the Africana studies department at Mr. Mamdani's alma mater. "I will claim that," he added with a laugh.

He would also become one of the most visible representations of a new generation of progressives - whose formative years as young adults were shaped by elite colleges where, over the last decade, theories of social and racial justice became even more deeply ingrained in liberal arts education.

WILD story. A DHS officer shot at a man he thought was fleeing (a judge dismissed all charges). Bullets went into the driver's side window, through his jacket collar, and into the empty passenger seat. An MPD cop on the scene says he was ordered not to put it in the police report.

A D.C. task force shot at a driver. It’s not in the police report.

Neither D.C. police nor the Department of Homeland Security have explained why the Homeland Security agent fired his weapon.

April 26, 1942: The Reichstag holds its last session, unanimously passing a decree making the Führer "Supreme Judge of the German People." Any last privileges of the parliament were removed as Hitler became final decision-maker in all matters, including life and death over every German citizen.
