🚨🚨🚨BREAKING NEWS: Was just passed this from a fellow service academy grad. A Coast Guard Academy graduate posted this. They are reporting that ICE entered base housing and took a USCG spouse. I can’t confirm this but I’m calling for answers from the Coast Guard and Congress. This is unacceptable.

Opinion: The US does not have the aid, the technology or the market access to exert control over global trade the way it once did, and Trump’s erratic behaviour is rapidly increasing the probability that it never will www.ft.com/content/c2eb...

Not to state the obvious, but none of them were sent to a terrorist prison in El Salvador. They all had lawyers, indictment by grand jury, a trial or a guilty plea where a judge ensured it was knowing & voluntary & access to an appeals process. In other words, all the hallmarks of due process.

Tory legacy. In England 48,830 A&E patients waited 24 hours or more for a hospital bed, 33,413 aged 65 or over. Some went 10 days to get bed in a ward. People deserve care and dignity. Must expand NHS capacity. Privatisation won't. 30%-40% of money vanishes in profit, money buys less.

A musical instrument I ordered is now delayed 2-3 months because of the tariffs, and while the company making it is admirably not raising the cost on my end, their costs have undoubtedly risen because they had to find new vendors and start up an entirely new production line. Stupid governments suck.
