"The largest cuts were concentrated...the division that investigates claims of discrimination & abuse."

Weaver Federal Building with a round entrance canopy, as a person walks beneath it.

Really impossible to overstate the extent to which NIMBYism is primarily just driven by selfish sociopathy.

The part of this story that really sticks with me is that Fairfax NIMBYs are trying to recall the mayor because she didn't willfully violate state law.

One reason that Dems need to be publicly saying "we will abolish ICE and prosecute every single one of them who used excessive force, mistreated detainees or detained an unaccompanied minor/US citizen/person with ongoing legal proceedings" is that saying so will deter abuses right now.

Dems need to be tweeting "I know everyone in Portland is going to peacefully and patriotically head down to the ICE facility. We need to fight like hell against these radical fascist ICE agents or else we're not going to have a country anymore."

In the end, the thing that most wrecks me isn't that the Trump Regime is doing evil things like cutting support for special education. That's expected.

What really hurts is learning that millions of Americans will see shit like that and immediately start explaining why it's based and awesome.

There are reports that the *entire* office of special education at the US Dept of Education has been cut. These hardworking folks ensure kids with disabilities get equal access to a quality education.

America’s children deserve better than this.

I would be deeply uncomfortable with said pothole being repaired without a detailed environmental review taking place beforehand.

America one year ago was a safer, kinder, had a better economy and was more of a respected world leader than it is today.

Nothing that Trump is doing is making America great.

He's burning the Constitutional order for fucking nothing.

If Dolly dies, there goes the Republic.

Republicans will oppose any redistributive policy if they believe it might help a single illegal immigrant.

Democrats will support any redistributive policy, even if it mostly helps red states.

And honestly, that's on us.

I don't get it either. I'm a Swiftie who definitely places folkmore as her best work, but I have no idea why people are so pressed about TLOAS. It's extremely consistent with Midnights, Rep & Lover.
