If they are actually going to enforce deportations in FL at job sites then the construction industry in FL will grind to a halt. Until they can replace those employees with US-born workers willing to work outside in the summer in 100 degree heat & humidity. Should be no problem.

This dude got exactly what he voted for—but listen all the way to the end. He makes good points. One thing I’ll add: Qatar was instrumental in funding Hamas. America is a ticking time bomb under Trump.

I saw a version of this on here before but it's worth yelling: these institutions that Musk is illegally dismantling– the weather service, health system, climate & energy research, international aid, maybe the US mail(?)– they don't belong to him, they belong to us. We invested in them. They're ours

I think adulthood needs a big propaganda push. We need more media about people who are basically content with their jobs and love their families. An adult should be a desirable thing to be.

Hi, are you doomscrolling about tariffs? Have you had something to eat? Is there an offline activity you can do tonight instead, like read a book, compile a list of essential items you need to stock up on, or call an elected official about the recession ahead? Try not to stay up too late tonight.

The Trump admin’s outrageous immigration overreaches result in situations like this one, where a protected resident & the father of an intellectually disabled American child has been mistakenly placed in a Salvadoran prison. This admin is recklessly & cruelly incompetent. www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...

This is so blindingly obvious. But I'm still glad people within the world of Trumpism are willing to say it. And not just national security but economic/dynamism and prosperity which of course is the sine qua non, the necessary condition of national power.
