Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

The decisions amount to a huge legal rebuke, but the administration has continued jailing people indefinitely.

Yes. This is why AI as envisioned by the sociopaths in the tech industry and C suites must be stopped.
American workers want to be treated like a human and not a robot. They want their time and energy and effort to be properly valued. They want corporations to understand that their skills can’t be replaced easily with technology.

And they want a party that fights for that. trib.al/WfUNMmO

When a conservative historian calls the United States a hostile and potentially predatory nation, things are truly messed up.

Under the Trump administration, the SEC has taken a sledgehammer to enforcement against corporate crimes, with cases dropping to record lows — at the same time that corporate lobbying of the federal government has surged to unprecedented levels.

With all of the White House demands for state voter information, it’s probably wise to check your voter registration on the regular.

We could get a leash on Trump in nine months if we all pull together.

This is really chilling . If they’re detaining EU citizens with valid work permits, the policy is to make everyone leave.

What's worse, Trump, who never read the Bible, or those in that audience who read it, claim to be Christians but won't listen to and follow the words of the person they claim to represent?

Phony Christians are so easy to spot when they support the poster child of the anti-Christ.

Never forget Katie Johnson - who accused Trump and Epstein of rape in 2016 in a civil suit, dropped the case after receiving death threats, and has never been heard from since.

And God only knows how many other victims are out there afraid to speak out.
