Hell ya. On a side note: Their reporting has been so good this year, I paid for a subscription. (I only subscribe to 2 mags and discontinued WaPo)

100% this It's not money or the "establishment" that elects people. It is voters and their desire to be heard.
comment in response to post
Yeah. The picking up of citizens is ridiculous and heavily influenced by racism, not doubt. I think that troubles these folks, but doesn't make them regret their vote Here's a good link about views www.pewresearch.org/politics/202...

it's not "better you than me" to him, because he's a citizen. He lives with "Hey man, not my problem, I am went through the process. The process just changed and that sucks for you, but whatever...that's not my problem." I just know too many folks in South Florida who feel this way

I'm not. But they don't see our attack as an act of war. Here's a classic response I got on NextDoor

He wouldn't care because he's a citizen. You will find that folks like him write off LEGAL migrants in a heartbeat when push comes to shove.

Better yet... everyone just reply with one word "Interesting" Every. Single. Time.

10-15 years at least. Once GenX is 65+ Our fundamental economic infrastructure for seniors and children is far less controlled here and subsequently prone to more fraud. 1/4 of Americans over 65 don't own a smartphone and 30% don't have broadband. www.pewresearch.org/internet/202...

Not sure i see an alternative to dollar bills and large coins. Those are still widely in use amongst some demographics. Not everyone can, or does, have a smartphone. And those who do don't always have electronic payment apps.

In the heat. Doing hard work. Building part of an airport... ICE needs to find CRIMINALS, not these folks

"And you know, with 92 million people in Iran, this would be no small endeavor."

If it wasn't for the fact that this are real humans with families to feed, I'd love to see the impact of deportations on so many industries. HOWEVER, these workers are real people who would be seriously hurt.

I hope they announce a first season of Iran's Got Talent or Disney Tehran. Not many other options seem like good ones.

It's just a matter of time...sadly

100%. I almost took the family, but with the assassination I didn't want to stress the police too much...they are trying to find that a-hole killer.
comment in response to post
The Minnesota Reps were all on board, some scheduled to speak. They were asked to not be in public due to the assassination here. You could add them in EASILY.

Straight up fascist bullshit.

While entirely true. They don't really care. That's the rub. It's like saying you disagree in what's for dinner. Not a big deal to them.

Fuck that. I won't answer that question.

100%
comment in response to post
You are 100% correct. However, that view isn't held by most people watching TV. They see the tales of stores being looted, cars being burned, and violence. That slowly turns them against the protests since they perceive protests hurting people like themselves. It's not right, but it is their view.
comment in response to post
That just sucks. Treating them like utter pawns. They didn't sign up for stupid/useless crap like this. I'd love to see some locals roll in and help them out. Citizens shouldn't let tyrants divide them. Trump is pushing for US vs Them. Screw that.

PDF and eBook?

Yeah. That's a huge amount of whitespace...wtf.

CDOs too

The bombers were built in Ukraine and that production line was shut down in the 90's. Those cannot be replaced easily, it would require entirely new planes to be produced. That will take years.

And thanks @molly.wiki for all you do reporting and analyzing the scams, schemes, and other hot crypto garbage... so many of us have followed you for years and love your work.

As you know, there won't be a good reply. Dems haven't been able to stop the most egregious things. They have damn near zero power and people still blame them for the ACTIONS of others. It's scary to see the lack of checks-n-balances and the left blaming the dems for that.
