“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

“This is going to be a massive loss of life overall,” a surgeon who formerly led USAID’s global health initiatives tells TNR. “Children are likely already dying, and will clearly be dying in large numbers.”

"It’s easy to miss the human side of policy, legal compliance, the nitty gritty of efficient government. To get caught up in slogans about fraud or waste. That’s what Musk and Trump are counting on. And yet I see and hear the human side every time my son says “My dad’s name is David.” On @msnbc.com

🚨 Why is no one talking about this order from Pam Bondi?! Page 2 of the Death Penalty Reinstatement Order says that “those who traverse our borders and remain in the USA without status”, get the the death penalty‼️

The real scam: making you fear the “the other” while the rich rob you blind. I wish every American understood this.

Venezuelans in South Florida feel “betrayed” that Trump broke his campaign promise not to deport documented immigrants with temporary protected status (TPS). Miami-Dade County is 69% Hispanic, but Trump won the county by 10 points in November. We tried to warn them. 🤷🏾‍♂️

A French study of 68,946 adults found that those who ate more organic foods had a 25% reduced risk of developing cancer, especially postmenopausal breast cancer and lymphomas. #HealthyEating #Farming #Sustainability #cancer www.news-medical.net/news/2024091...

I read about the good ol days, when people found rats in their canned food. I yearn for this taste adventure.

🚨The Trump admin will kick 300,000+ Venezuelans off of TPS in 60 days, rendering them undocumented and forcing them to lose jobs and stability. Combined with tariffs, this will be another huge blow to the economy; nearly all are working legally now. And another 300,000 will lose status in September!

So, all you Christians who voted for Trump, you cool with this? A lot of Christians will die as a result of his actions.

After watching this video, you will never look at a simple bag of lettuce the same way again. The average workday for an undocumented immigrant is 10-12 hours, and many get paid below minimum wage because their employers know they are afraid of being deported. How many Americans want this job?

Republicans always scream, "We need to cut spending!" They want to cut spending on legacy domestic programs for Social Security, veterans, and those less fortunate rather than increase taxes on corporate and individual tax cheats. It's not a spending issue. It's a revenue issue. Say it with me.

Since Day 1, Trump’s mass deportation scheme has implicated American citizens, including Native Americans. Witnesses state that ICE raids are racially motivated, with people being unfairly targeted based on their race or skin color, perpetuating a culture of fear. www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/...

Both the conservative Wisconsin Farm Bureau and the liberal Wisconsin Farmers Union are advocating for the safety and security of immigrant workers. Immigrants do 70% of the work on Wisconsin dairy farms. #foodsecurity #immigration www.wiproud.com/news/local-n...

The Nicaraguans who keep Wisconsin’s dairy farms, restaurants and factories working are sending home their most prized possessions, bracing for potential mass deportations. “We don’t have much, but what we do have is important.” New, from @melissa-sanchez.bsky.social
