I’m a storyteller, a filmmaker, a cartoonist, an actress, and a bunch of other things, including a veteran teacher. I’m also trans, if that’s any of your business.

 There were 19,066 drug trafficking convictions last year. Illegal migrants make up 8% of that. That’s more than it should be, but…

There were 1.8 million assault convictions in the US in 2023. 1254 of them were perpetrated by illegal migrants. That’s a whopping 0.069%.

There were 7000 homicides in the US last year. 29 out of 7000? That’s about 0.41%. And this is based on the government’s own numbers.

I’m not a big fan of Henry James, mainly because I am a slow reader, and I just haven’t gotten around to him. But I certainly understand the sentiment.
(Sadly, Delaney only got to chapter 9 before he died of a stroke. But I highly recommend his commentary. It’s still available.)

I just heard this on an old podcast called Re-Joyce in which the late Frank Delaney explicated Ulysses, pretty much paragraph by paragraph. He simply threw this in, and I’m doing the same.

It really goes against the grain to hear Hegseth and his cohorts named even in the same paragraph as the word “intelligence.”
