Meanwhile...The Washpost, which is bleeding millions of dollars and shrinking its staff, accepted -- and then rejected -- a $115,000 ad that criticized Elon Musk.

Anyway, here's the ad that the Post's business side didn't want its readers to see ⤵️

Oh no. Does this mean border patrol agents bribes are down?

shiftyclown.bsky.social•16 days ago

👆You have to had lived by the border to understand the border and immigration. Specifically, why they never will really do anything meaningful about it. But hey it gets them elected and some get to pocket a LOT of MONEY! BONUS! 🤣

If their bribes go down, does that force them to bring in more drugs?

randalland1.bsky.social•17 days ago

I think that's what the bribes are for.

“A record-breaking swell of migration during the Biden administration had largely receded by the time Mr. Trump took office last month.”

The key here was normalizing the use of “emergency” action without justification, including the use of US troops on American soil.

That “win” endangers us all.

Ok, good article. However, you have to look at what policies Biden ALREADY HAD IN PLACE, when they were put in place, and how that affected the reduction in numbers. Trump is lying 🤥 claiming this is because of him!

If Elno really wants to fight waste, he should look at this

Was in Laredo for a few days and police/military present every 1/4 mile on highway. Felt like a police state and overkill. Same along the Rio Grande. Agents appeared bored. Meanwhile, miles of trucks cross the border, many filled with car assemblies made in Mexico for the American market.
