Cato Institute just nuked the lie. Immigrants have cut U.S. deficits by $14.5 TRILLION since 1994, slashing the national debt by a third.
All that “immigrants are bleeding us dry” noise? Absolute bullshit.

The director of the next jurassic park instalment is a coward if they don't include this.
#WyrdWednesday This also reminds me of Tony Martin in his book 'Dinosaurs without bones', who calculated how much force vomit from a Brachiosaurus with a 14 metres long neck would hit the ground with.
The answer: enough force to kill you.

This woman has shown more courage than the nominal leaders of the Democratic Party.
Martinez: "[I] sat in federal court and watched from 20 feet away as the border patrol agent who attempted to kill me testified at a hearing. Agent Charles Exum—Charles Exum, my attempted executioner was Charles Exum—I hope the government does not consider my use of his name here to be...doxxing."

I'm a star (well, not me the sea star). Astarina miniata, a bat star as it moves over pink rock (coralline algae) filled with tube mollusks.
These sea stars can be found with amazing colors; yellow, orange, purple, green, red, and brown plus combinations of these colors. And they'll eat urchins.
