Immigrants contribute over $525B in taxes annually, including $12B to Social Security from undocumented workers who often get no benefits in return. They pay income, payroll & local taxes, & fund vital programs for us all. Protect our neighbors.

I haven't enjoyed being away from home this much in a long time. I can only offer to everyone at home that the rest of the world knows it's insanity. We are not alone. They are going 5o do what they can to stablize things. He probably knows it. Probably why he is going after the ICC again.

The toxic lying is so depressing. The US media is detached, nit just fox, from reality and from the rest of the world's media. It has been so relaxing to just have even conservative media speak in facts while I am in the UK. Psychological impact of living in the US these last years = not healthy.

The headline is wrong. He was shot after he ASSAULTED the 72 year old father and his adult daughter. Self defense. Should be: Drunk ICE agent assaults elderly man and his daughter

It also ensures that the US war with Iran will be very hard to get out of. In the past, Russia backing Iran directly as it engages with US and US allies would be considered a proxy war between US and Russia. Here, the US is funding a war on itself, basically. @aoc.bsky.social @warren.senate.gov

Yes, it's about sanctions. It is also about funneling US dollars to Putin to bail him out of his dire financial situation. He struggles to use Rubbles to buy from other countries (like weapons). But every country loves getting dollars. And it also props up the dying oil industry. Which P & T >

"AI can write, analyze, predict, and automate at impressive speed. But it still cannot truly understand meaning, make ethical judgments, feel emotion, or take responsibility." So, AI is sociopathic. Inherently, inevitably. The inabilities above mean it is extremely likely to do very bad things.

Interesting. It would appear that members of the National Guard have been posted at ballot drop-off boxes. This is how you suppress the vote. I've seen a few pictures like this posted, so I'm going to assume they are real.

The news media in the US is dystopian, apocalyptic. In the UK, conservative women want equality and no harrassment. They do not want to be pregnant in the kitchen. The alt right crap is everywhere. But, it is not as pervasive, unequivocally dystopian and death culture-y as in the US.

NEWS: Eight major U.S. allies—including Canada, the UK, France, Germany, Italy, and Japan—have issued a joint rebuke of the Trump regime’s sweeping sanctions on the International Criminal Court. They vow “unwavering support” for the ICC’s independence.
A vertical graphic on a white background displays an October 9, 2026, joint statement from the foreign ministers of Canada, Denmark, Germany, France, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom. The full statement, presented in black serif text, reaffirms unwavering support for the International Criminal Court (ICC), strongly opposes U.S. sanctions against the Court, warns of their impact on its work, staff, and families, and pledges continued support for international justice, accountability, and the rules-based international system.Marco Rubio, mouth agape, as he announces sweeping sanctions on the ICC to try to punish them for acknowledging Bibi Netanyahu’s war crimes
