I was curious where ICE and CBP agents in Minnesota were deploying from, so I looked at OPM data. What I found is that their duty stations are almost universally redacted from the public data. www.pbump.net/o/where-are-...
Where are ICE and Border Patrol agents coming from?
The duty stations of nearly every ICE and CBP officer is redacted in OPM data.

We need to clamor for that even if the votes aren't there—yet.

My quote of the day

The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise with the occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew and act anew.

"It's A Wonderful Life" isn't just a feel-good holiday classic (and my favorite movie of all time).

It's also a warning about what happens when greed runs the economy.

This is really something. Important reporting work and definitely worth a few minutes.
1/ Today, ProPublica is running a piece I've been working on for a bit. It's about what happened with a devastating wave of bird flu earlier this year, as egg prices hit record highs.

And it's a story that illuminates the ways the U.S. is failing to control what could become the next pandemic. 🧵

Thank you for this excellent reporting. Please use your broad audience to educate on Kushner’s role in crafting this deal, which is just breaking. This seems a huge, unsurprising but underreported factor which points directly to likely Trump family enrichment through it. 1/

It takes a 2/3 votes in both houses of Congress (if the House ever even meets again) and then 38 out of 50 states, when 15 states currently have Democratic trifectas. Why would anyone waste time talking about this?

Trump may otherwise try to get a 3rd term before his SCOTUS, but not this

Social Security is NOT a handout.

It is a benefit earned with every paycheck, and it must be protected and expanded, not cut, privatized, or means-tested.

Ballot arrived today! Marked YES, signed the envelope, put in a nearby postbox. Easy peasy. Did you know that voting ASAP helps the YES on 50 campaign operate more efficiently? Plus it will take you off the list for calls and door knocks. Win/win. And speaking of winning, let’s DO IT Californians!

Early voting is underway for Prop 50 in California.

I urge anyone in the state to vote yes.

Dear @apnews.com

The republicans control congress. Democrats did not vote down anything. If the GOP wanted to fund the government, they could have changed the rules to pass a CR with a simple majority like they did 11 days ago to approve 48 trump appointees at once.

Fix your headline.

Remember: Undocumented immigrants pay billions of dollars in taxes every year.

They pay into government funded healthcare programs, but can't access them except in case of emergency.

Emergency Medicaid spending accounted for less than 1% of total Medicaid spending in 2023.
