How is this not child endangerment, and why are those officers not charged?

No matter what this Administration tells the American people, the law is very clear: Members of Congress have a legal right to enter any DHS detention facility to conduct oversight without prior notice - something I’ve done twice this year without issue.

Sure, make up those situations where someone could get hurt. What about the situations where people are actually IN those swasticars when they blow up of their own accord?

A screenshot of a post on X by Karly Kingsley (@karlykingsley
): "Fair question." Below, a post by Mike Rothschild (@rothschildmd
) reads: "The US is scheduled to co-host the World Cup in 2026 and the Olympics in 2028. Why would thousands of international athletes and millions of fans from around the world come to a country where tourists, asylum seekers, and visa holders are being disappeared to foreign prisons?" Both accounts have blue checkmarks. Rothschild's profile picture shows a person in a suit.

It’s no surprise that Trump is reshaping the FTC, an agency that’s been looking at his close ties to billionaires. Corporations see the FTC’s cases as an attack on US enterprise, but antitrust law is vital for healthy democracy. Fmr. FTC Chair @linamkhan.bsky.social joins me @ 11aET #Velshi

Millions of Americans — especially seniors, small businesses, and rural communities — rely daily on USPS's affordable rates and universal service. Privatization would make the mail more expensive and less reliable — all to enrich the billionaire class. We cannot let it happen.

Trump chose DeJoy, who was a big campaign donor, and he also hand-picked the postal board of governors, which voted him in. If it smells like installation, it's installation.

DeJoy has been chipping away at USPS ever since Felonious Orange installed him.

I "discussed" this with someone yesterday who insisted children's lives will not be affected. Of course, we was an upper middle class white male who thinks RFK Jr has common sense.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

The Trump Administration just canceled training for firefighters, right before wildfire season.   The National Fire Academy trains about 100,000 people every year — and is a critical resource for smaller fire departments and volunteers across the country.

Of course he's stupid. He also lacks confidence and brains, and cares only for himself. The exact opposite of the two presidents he followed.
