Wow, what a race from Shiffrin! So happy for her to just demolish that after her Olympic struggles.
Mikaela Shiffrin wins the slalom gold medal by 1.50 seconds
If you add up the winning margins of the winners at the 1998, 2002, 2006, 2010, 2014, 2018, and 2022 women's slalom, you get 1.51 seconds

Let me tell you about the SAVE Act. You need to know about it.
It’s Trump’s first (of likely many) major attempt to rig the election in his favor. It takes away the right to vote for millions and allows your voting records to be erased. We cannot let it pass the Senate.

Just remember that DHS is building concentration camps, and, if you built it, they will get filled.
I’m really worried that this just means no one will care anymore, if ICE is picking up already-criminalized neighbors

Considering the previous "draw down" was purely symbolic, I'm skeptical about what this will functionally mean. That said, for the sake of the people of Minnesota, I pray it's true and that this campaign of terror will soon be over.

A tactical withdrawal by the Trump administration from Minneapolis--which is a well-deserved victory for the people of Minneapolis. But no backing down on "the promise of mass deportation." Which means the fight continues, and there will be more Minneapolises across the nation.
Tom Homan: “I have proposed, and President Trump has concurred, that this surge operation conclude…We will continue to enforce Title A immigration law throughout this nation…Those who say we are backing down from immigration enforcement or the promise of mass deportations, you are simply wrong.”

The GOP’s “SAVE” Act also requires broad voter purge programs using reportedly unreliable citizenship info from databases “updated” by DOGE (among other sources). My guess is that these purges wld result in many faulty purges of people w/ Hispanic last names, disproportionately impacting Democrats.
😳 Musk’s “DOGE” overhauled the The Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (“SAVE”) program,” which Trump & MAGA want states to use to PURGE supposed noncitizens from the VOTER ROLLS under the GOP’s proposed “SAVE Act”.
Experts warn that “SAVE” isn’t accurate enough for this. WTH?!!! 1/

Please call your Senators at 202-224-3121 and tell them to vote NO on the GOP’s voter suppression bill, the so-called “SAVE Act.” If you do make the call, please reply with a ✅ bc it will encourage others to do the same, & I want to thank you personally. Thanks!
Most Real IDs do *not* prove citizenship. (EDLs, which are available in only 5 states are an exception) The GOP’s “SAVE” Act thus misleads when it says voters can prove citizenship w/ “a form of ID issued consistent with the reqmts of…REAL ID…that indicates the applicant is a citizen of the US…” 1/
