Yes, 100 percent. There's no reason why a Democratic House can't defund both the Office of Remigration and third-country deportations more generally. As I reported recently, here's what's being discussed: newrepublic.com/article/2157...

Trump has been on a nonstop crusade against mail voting for years, making baseless fraud accusations. Now, he is encouraging his supporters to vote by mail. And this isn’t the first time Trump has reversed himself on mail voting: demdock.com/4j6Bmx4

NEWS: Trump personally ordered $10 million in Homeland Security money spent on TV ads promoting himself, and only offered to have his super PAC pay once he got caught. Treating the federal treasury like a personal slush fund isn't a mistake you fix with a refund—it's a crime you get prosecuted for.

Trump: "The Fake News New York Times 'reported' on my Great, PACKED Rally in Ohio that, 'the place was not full.' In actuality ... The Arena was totally MAXED OUT. What does happen at all of my SOLD OUT Rallies, is people tend to migrate down ... I never have empty seats — Never have & never will!"
Trump: "The Fake News New York Times 'reported' on my Great, PACKED Rally in Ohio that, 'the place was not full. Some upper sections were almost completely empty.' In actuality, thousands of people were unable to get in. The Arena was totally MAXED OUT, including all upper sections. What does happen at all of my SOLD OUT Rallies, is that the people in the upper sections tend to migrate down to the Main Floor — The 'migration' process always happens! The Times knows this, and so does everyone else. I never have empty seats — Never have, and never will! Because of their dishonesty, I have cinematographers shooting the various Arenas where I speak, in that some of the Fake News likes to dishonestly report lies and untruths. In actuality, my Events for very good Republican Politicians are probably more crowded than ever. There are no empty seats, there haven’t been for years, and there never will be. The Rallies are 'HOTTER' than ever. They are all 'happenings,' and they never happened before, and will never be duplicated again. The Networks refuse, however, under any circumstances, to show the Crowds, but you can hear the thunderous applause, and know that it represents thousands and thousands of people. Watch tonight, for example, in the Great State of Nebraska, where I’ll be heading soon. See you later! President DONALD J. TRUMP"

U.S. forces are retreating. That's what this means. "Pulled out and returned to their home stations in the U.S. as potential Iranian threats raise base security concerns" is a fancy way of saying the Iranian military has the U.S. military in retreat. This is unbelievably embarrassing.

The Secretary of the Army will set the time and place of the execution. Judgement day for Hasan has finally come.

Within ninety (90) days after this Decision becomes final (otherwise subject to

to the Title IX OfEcc a reflection paper that engages with the specific circumstances for
which he was found responsible and contains a detailed proposal for future University
educational materials to train undergraduate students around the intersection of social
media use and sexual harassment, as well as bystander intervention. The reflection paper
must also include recommendations to the University's Office of Sorority & Fraternity

campus. Use of artificial intelligence tools of any kind in the creation of this reflection
paper is prohibited.
" The Hearing Panel expects that Respondent will take this educational opportunity

🤫 The Trump family's World Liberty Financial appears to have quietly weakened a governance promise on Oct. 1. Its FAQ used to say tokens held in WLF's treasury "will not be voted." Now, it says WLF "does not currently vote" them. docs.worldlibertyfinancial.com/resources/faq
#### Are there any limits on how many tokens I can vote?

Yes. In addition to the limitation of voting 5,000,000,000 tokens per token holder (i.e. 5% of the total supply and described in greater detail below), any tokens which are treasury tokens (i.e., owned by WLF), will not be voted.
Yes. World Liberty Financial wants governance spread out, so one holder can vote at most 5,000,000,000 $WLFI, which is 5% of total supply. That applies across all the wallets a person controls, and World Liberty Financial can adjust it to 5% of the $WLFI that can actually vote. Staked $WLFI and locked tokens count toward the same limit. World Liberty Financial does not currently vote $WLFI held in its treasury.
