Undocumented immigrants contribute nearly $100 billion in taxes every year. Meanwhile, the wealthiest 1% dodge $163 billion in taxes annually. The real drain on America isn’t coming from the border — it’s coming from the boardroom.

We all know this is coming, right? "Trump is about deploy ICE military-style tactical units to 5 Democratic-run cities: NYC, Seattle, Chicago, Philadelphia and Alexandria, VA. He wants to spark clashes and confrontations between fed authorities in as many Democratic strongholds as possible"

Stephen Miller—who's from the area and knows better—calls LA an "occupied city" as part of a ploy to justify a violent, fascist crackdown. Courtesy of Matt Snyder, this map of LA features a to-scale red dot indicating where the protests are. You'll have to zoom in and look hard.

I wrote about how America is likely to start feeling its first broad pain from the DOGE cuts and Trump firings this month as the agencies that help secure our summers—FEMA, NOAA, the National Park Service, and air traffic control—have been especially hard hit: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/prepare-fo...

ICE has now targeted good friends of mine - including American citizens - at a local San Antonio business. Here’s a reminder of your rights. Share widely & speak up against the injustice happening in our country.

Rewatched the original trilogy after #Andor. So, if the Emperor had turned Luke to the dark side, would the rebel victory have changed? The events inside the throne room wouldn't have stopped the destruction of the shield or Death Star. Jedi Luke or Sith Luke - Death Star still goes boom. #starwars

MAKE NOISE ON THIS ONE‼️ They didn’t just deport him—they sent him to CECOT in El Salvador. Agelviz came here legally through the refugee resettlement program—fully vetted. But when he landed in Houston, CBP snatched him over a tattoo: a clock and a rose. No charges. No record. Just a suspicion.

Maximo Londonio, 42, immigrated to the country as a 12-year-old boy. He was pulled aside Thursday by U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents after returning from a trip to the Philippines with his wife and youngest daughter...The couple was celebrating their 20th wedding anniversary.

What I get from the Biden's-decline book is a vivid picture of the self-reinforcing culture of denial/deflection that builds up within the closest circle around a frail president. So the takeaway isn't "Democrats must atone." It's that it's surely happening again, to a greater extreme, right now.

Rewatched Rogue One after finishing #Andor. The scene where the rebel fleet appears above Scarif hits harder after watching the Rebel Alliance be fractured and hidden over two seasons of Andor. I got goosebumps and may have had something in my eye...
