Are there really that many undocumented left in Washington DC? Seems like they would have left already. Unless they are working for the Federal Government?

Foreign companies set up in Red States because they have anti-union laws. Which tells you the companies don't intend to pay great wages and provide great benefits. Red States are the cheapest ones for them to operate in, so that's where they go.
On the positive side, with this attitude they will never be able to institute a military draft. When you make it this easy to get out of the military draftees will have no trouble making their time in uniform short.
But somewhere there is a Billionaire who wants to build their 'End of the World" bunker where it will have scenic views. Can't stand in their way of buying whatever land they want.
To survive the End Of The World you don't need a bunker, you need a town. A town at the 'end of the road'. Where you have spent years making friends and investing in the town infrastructure. So when the End Of The World happens everyone in the town says 'We are all in this together'.
An important question that needs to be answered is HOW DID THESE PEOPLE GET HIRED? Hired in Korea by Hyundai? Hired by Hyundai in the US? Them already being here. Hired by subcontractors for Hyundai, who just trusted the sub? To identify who is responsible for them being on the payroll.
Either of those two men would be fools to take such a job. It would last only until the deadline for them getting back on the ballot passed. Then they would be fired.
Her reaction makes sense when you think of her PTSD combined with her absolute knowledge that she MUST support Trump totally and without reservation, no matter what. A tough position to find yourself in.
When the description says 'federal inquiry' I assume he is calling for an Australian government inquiry. The incident in question happened in Australia.
The only reason to require prior authorization is so you can NOT authorize some treatments. For "reasons".
What people like him forget is that most atheists grew up with a Bible in their homes and schools. The mere presence of the Bible does NOT make people into Christians.
With a Zero-Tolerance policy like this it becomes a foolish decision for foreign born people to try and live in the US. No matter the effort you put in, and the benefit to the US you are, it can all be taken away in an instant. And all your effort wasted.
If Congress sets tariffs other countries know they have a deal, if Trump sets tariffs other countries know he can, and WILL, change them in days or weeks. No deal he makes is final. Why should they waste time making deals he will not keep?
So, using the "Major Questions Doctrine" against the President, as accepting he has unlimited tariff authority gives him complete control of the national economy would seem to be a major question.
Trump wants to fiddle with the interest rates (up, down, up, down..) so his friends can play the stock markets responses and make a bundle of cash.
Well, they have learned one of the cardinal rules of being in DC. It is important to look busy, so your boss doesn't start looking around for something more strenuous for you to do.
Trump wants to be able to manipulate the prime lending rate so he can cause brief surges in the stock market, claiming all upside credit for himself, then ignoring any backsliding. And ignoring inflation, which he will endlessly blame on Biden.
Because somewhere in America is a person with more money, more property, more guns and a more beautiful wife than they have. Jealousy breeds rage.
There are many people who love Trump, or are afraid of him. There are few people who like Vance and nobody who is afraid of him.
First question: Why was Bill Pulte investigating her mortgage records? Is his job to "get" anyone who Trump doesn't like? Is his staff investigating all of his "enemies"? What about Republicans in Congress, is he investigating them also?? This is weaponized government.
It does seem improbable. How would this difference be expressed? Chasing Neanderthal and Denisovans away from water sources but NOT humans? Would these groups even be aware of differences in their lineages?
Single issue voters, who ignore everything besides their issue, are how you end up with authoritarian governments. Your issue is NOT the only one that exists, consideration needs to be given to what combination if issues will win elections.
Which part of the regular military, the armored vehicle mechanics? They could help fix the snowplows and garbage trucks I suppose. Most people in the military are not trigger pullers.
When your allies see your enemies being tortured they begin to fear that it may soon happen to them as well. So they support you ever more more fervently. "Hurt them, not me" is their only thought.
Every analytic document is overtaken by events, information is found later that would have led to different conclusions, some large changes some small. Endlessly trying to re-writing a document is pointless, decisions were already made based on it, concern yourself with your NEXT analytic document.
Massive investments make possible massive losses. Huge data centers, huge power production schemes, and all it takes is one "Aha" moment and it all comes tumbling down. For example a method that only takes 1% as much electricity as current methods.
The only medieval medical related works I can recall are the Brother Cadfael series by Ellis Peters. Perhaps more detective story than medical drama though. A TV series staring Derek Jacobi as Cadfael was produced in the 1990's.
You ever been to Southern Arizona in the summer? Don't need to be painted black to be too hot to touch. Any color will do just fine, even white.
Sounds very much like a CONFESSION! What exactly did you do to get at the BOTTOM of the totem pole?? Please enlighten us Mr. President.
The fact that a mother is accompanied by US citizen children should automatically trigger a delay in deportation. Until options for the children to remain in the US have been reviewed.
Take heart, VAST sums of this money will be 'lost' through no-bid contracts for buildings that are never built, equipment that is never delivered, training that is never performed and studies that will never be completed.
Private schools are for-profit organizations. They may not have stockholders, but they do have employees whose salaries can be as high as they can get away with and suppliers who can charge inflated prices and landlords who just have to raise the rent yearly "for reasons".
When they later return to DC as tourists they will have an easier time finding their way around.
This would be the best way to go, some people would still have to pay off the loan, those with good jobs and MONEY. While those people who will never be able to pay it off will be able to stop having their lives endlessly disrupted.
Millions and millions of new jobs, EVERY MONTH. But they can't tell you who and where, just trust them, right?
The reason ICE agents wear masks is that it prevents people who witness them doing something bad from being able to identify them when trying to file a complaint. "Can't tell us which guy did the bad thing? Sorry, nothing we can do.""
His mentions of tariffs always imply that the OTHER nation pays the tariff.
Issue here was the schools bathroom, not the bookstores bathroom. In the long term clusters of one-person unisex bathrooms instead of two multi-seat one sex bathrooms is the solution. In schools, with badge-swipe doors, it would also help reduce vandalism by identifying who has used it.
People and institutions that have copies of the original studies should make sure to preserve them and make them available to others. Lets make sure that the old versions remain available, and on websites outside of the United States.
TACO It is another excuse for Trump to put off making a serious decision that might make a significant difference to Ukraine. Look for the date of any such summit to be made, then delayed, then cancelled for this or that reason.
TACO Trump is a coward, planning a meeting takes time, so any promises previously made about deadlines for ending the war in Ukraine are now put off indefinitely.
Remember the Republican motto: If a service needs to be provided a Rich person should be getting Richer providing it. Government provided services are stealing money from the wealthy, so those services must be privatized.
No, it was the women around the campfire doing the experimenting. Drawing on their collective experience and that of their grandmothers. Trying different things until they found those that worked.
I don't understand what people demanding their display think the results will be. I am old enough to have gone to school back when they WERE displayed in schools where I lived. None of my contemporaries from those days is religious or goes to any church.
If he can file lawsuits, he can respond to lawsuits. A one-way street can be abused, and is being abused. How many lawsuits has he filed (or threatened to file) this year?
CNN lady desperately wants him to say something about other guy so they can splash a headline reading: Democrats In A Civil War!!! Can't Agree on Anything!!! Chaos Pits Candidates Against Each Other!!! Anything he says would be interpreted as an attack on other guy.
The short answer is one or the other would move to another district. No problem.
The quote he is thinking of is from Issac Asimov. “The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds the most discoveries, is not "Eureka!" (I found it!) but 'That's funny...”
During the lunar day solar panels could power a faciliity on the Moon. It is keeping that facility powered and UNFROZEN during the lunar night that a reactor would be useful for. Remember, on the Moon night is two weeks long, and very cold.
You don't think the hunter stalking game took the time to experiment with new food processing techniques do you?
Women obviously pioneered food processing. Find new plant - feed to husband - observe results If results bad - process that plant - feed to new husband - observe results Repeat with new processing techniques until husband smiles and says yum.
To be prosecuted won't the person punched have to appear in court and give their name? Better though to just follow them until they get into vehicles or otherwise allow you to identify them. Their anonymity is what makes them 'brave' enough to march. Take that away and maybe they stop marching?
Trump has no idea how the government works. He thinks it's like his company, where the big boss just decides what the message is and sends it out. Truth doesn't matter, just the big bosses opinion. Government statements like this are ALWAYS a consensus decision based on input from many people.
Interesting read. "quality assessments do no good if policymakers fail to make time to read intelligence reports or take briefings from analysts" Or if policymakers ignore them because they don't align with the policymakers ideological beliefs.
Change takes time, the economy is a massive thing that changes direction slowly in most cases. Not seeing a massive immediate crash does not mean that a crash isn't already in progress. Wait a while, hindsight is 20/20 they say, have patience.
The problem with her running again is the MAGAs have endless negative commercils and statements they can immediately spam. People are tired of the same old BS, and all they would be hearing about her second run would be repeats from her first run. They would tune out quickly.
DCA was completely shut down after 9/11. It was only re-opened after Congress threatened to shut down the government unless it was re-opened. Why? Because Congress Critters didn't like having to go all the way to Dulles airport to take flight home.
Once the CEO's become addicted to their AI "bonus" the AI companies will raise their prices. AI junkies will pay whatever the AI company demands. Will we see an AI cartel perhaps? Price collusion to keep the money flowing and server farms powered up?
Best Guess: The NSA was told to do something illegal. The top lawyer said: "We can't do that, it's illegal". So the top lawyer was fired. So we can expect the NSA will soon be revealed to be doing something illegal. Or everyone who works at the NSA will be fired.
I would agree most people play for the joy of it. Trump is not most people, he is a bottomless pit that craves to be applauded and worshipped and praised, and will never get enough.
The JOY comes from the praise that you get from everyone else when you brag about what a low score you achieved. Seeing that score posted somewhere, where you can point to it and say "see how good I am at golf". The joy comes from other peoples praise, Trump lives for that.
Quis custodiet ipsos custodes? Latin for "who watches the watchers"? The danger of totally independent anti-corruption offices is that if THEY become corrupt who will discover that fact? Who will be able to investigate and prosecute them?
People should read the Memoirs of General WIlliam T. Sherman It is available in e-book format.
Now I am only guessing, you understand, but when Trump says "DATING" I think he means fucking. I don't see Donald as the dinner and a movie kind of guy.
Rule 1 for Police: When in doubt empty the magazine in the direction of whatever scared you. Reload.
Why would anyone go there when your tuition dollars are just being given to the federal government. You as a student are getting nothing for that money.
For every Alien Probe that flies through our solar system how may ordinary comets and asteroids will fly through? Millions? Billions? Can we expect that every object that is detected is going to be declared "Probably an alien probe."? Probably.
OK, so now chose the second assistant..
If the electrical system fails you are stuck inside? No thanks.
There are a lot of politicians and companies afraid of Donald Trump. None of them are afraid of JD Vance. And they don't respect him either. MAGA is Trump, no Trump no MAGA.
While I agree that the Apollo landers should not be cut up for souvenirs I worry that there may be other agendas at work. Such as laying claim to, or exclusive access to, vast areas of the lunar surface for nations or companies, because they where the first there.
Take it over without paying piles of money to rich people??? Unthinkable! They are ENTITLED to their profits aren't they?
I would highly recommend: The Cotton Kingdom by Frederick Law Olmsted published 1861 Subtitled: A Traveler's Observations on Cotton and Slavery in the American Slave States Available in e-book formats on Guttenberg(dot)org
I find it curious that the Creationists have not been demanding their beliefs should be taught in schools, instead of evolution. Perhaps the Tech Bros, whose wealth and influence is based on cutting edge science, are keeping them in check?
The goal is to privatize everything Remember: It is dogma among the rich that if something NEEDS to be done then a rich person should be getting richer doing it.
But what they are planning on doing uses NONE of the new nuclear power tech. They are restarting decades old plants that were designed 40 years ago or more. Plants that have years of operation behind them, and whose last operators are all retired. Who will run them when restarted?
First thing that would have been done with photos and videos would be to identify the individuals shown, both victims and perpetrators. Surely this has been done, right? Or perhaps too many of the perpetrators were immediately recognized and declared "too important to prosecute"?
Unfortunately when standards are set there will always be people who try and carry them to extremes. If a flat face is good, an even flatter face is better, then someone else tries to top that dog by breeding for a more extreme flatness. Do these standards ever declare maximum limits?
If it is a Harvard degree, I suspect a lot of exceptions would be made. "Any accredited university, or Harvard"
But he knows all the liberal Billionaires, right? Who else do you need to know to win an election, right??
Presumably they are being very picky, they found no document titled "Client List" therefor there isn't one. Just a list of peoples names and their sexual preferences.
And Blonde hair, don't forget that. It's very important, for some reason.
Whenever Trump quotes some foreign leader as calling him "Sir" you know he is lying.
No point in making a deal with someone who will just cancel it in a week or two during his next temper tantrum.
All of which take time and effort. Anything that makes the posting of bogus reviews take more time and more effort will lead to fewer of them. Make their job harder, if only a little, and take more time, if only a little.
First thing, rewrite the Full Self Driving Software for the Cybertruck and take it for a spin, blindfolded.
Didn't Fidel Castro dress like this?
To be masters of their own destiny nations in Africa need to throw away the borders drawn by colonial powers when they carved up the continent. Redraw them based on cultural, tribal and religious boundaries. Won't happen though. Too many dictators would fear losing "their" territory.
Any bets on their having a hit list of peoples information they will be grabbing first, and who they will be sending it too? Fox news will have lots of "Breaking News" headlines along the lines of "Did you know that.... has this much money??"
Would it hurt to tell people, in the title, the reason? The green color is ARSENIC.
Trump is only interested in numbers of people deported. Anybody ICE can catch, nothing else matters.
In the future, starting now in fact, every air force is going to need to adopt a simple policy. If an airplane is NOT in the air, it must be INSIDE a closed Hanger. Period.
Donald Trump is a coward. He is so scared of Putin that he will never put pressure on Russia. If Putin demanded that the US destroy our nuclear arsenal Trump would give the order.
I would expect limited production of muscle cars and Canyoneros that are mega-polluters. But only because they can charge outrageous amounts of money for them. Overall probably not much effected, only changes that improve profit margins by leaving off various parts.
How can you expect AI to draw a picture of a beast that nobody has ever drawn a picture of before? Too much interpretation of very complex jargon in verbal descriptions is needed, all its going to do is redraw a picture of a contemporary critter.
As he gets older Trump is less of a DOer and almost exclusively a REACTer. Always responding to other peoples statements with juvenile insulting language.
I doubt Elon actually did. But I am POSITIVE that Elon TOLD Trump that he did, and Trump believed him. Trump believes pretty much everything people who suck up to him tell him. Those are his only sources of information other than Fox News.
In the future they should launch these landers in pairs. The mission of the second lander would be to trail behind the first by several hundred meters and video the first lander all the way to touchdown. So we know something of what happened. Just don't land the second on top of the first.
Problem with this is people will just make up some bullshit and when hired just forget about it. For most jobs there is no real connection, so might as well just lie about it on your application.
A few images would have been nice. What do the mouths of the rivers look like? Also it sounds like there was one place with a delta? Perhaps the sediment dissolves by the time the river mouth is reached?
