A little known 1798 law will be the grounds to which Trump will implement his deportation campaign.

Critics Jump On House Republican's 'CULT'-Like Example Of Kissing Trump's Ring
Rep. Troy Nehls (R-Texas) explained how Donald Trump is “no question” the leader of the Republican Party with a wild example of lawmakers’ unwavering loyalty to the president-elect on Wednesday.
“If Donald Trump says, ‘Jump three feet high and scratch your head,’ we all jump three feet high and scratch our heads. That’s it,” he added.

NEVER a good idea to mix alcohol and hypnotics. I took Ambien for a short period after my sister died in 2009. Had to stop because packages were showing up at my door that I didn't remember ordering (I called it sleep shopping) and food would be cooked late at night that I didn't remember cooking. I couldn't imagine taking it with alcohol.

U.S. Rep Michael McCaul, (R) the chair of the powerful House Foreign Affairs Committee, was briefly detained at Dulles International Airport outside Washington, D.C. on Nov. 4, in an incident he called “the result of a poor decision” to mix Ambien and alcohol.
McCaul, who was on his way home to TX, was charged with being drunk in public on Nov. 4 and released shortly after, according to the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority.

I have not been posting much because work has been busy. But, it is truly heartbreaking to see what Americans picked for our government. The government does important things, at this point just toss it away.

I found [didn't find] the whole story of Susie Wiles' daughter scrubbed from Wiki the day after she was made CoS.

I am a big believer in the principle that we read the books we need at the time we need to read them, even if that time is years after we first encounter or acquire said book.
I started reading Paulo Freire's Pedagogy of the Oppressed today, and once again, I feel vindicated in my belief about reading and timing.

Given what we now know, would Obama succeeding in placing Merrick Garland on the Supreme Court have been any better? #politics

I cannot wait to blow up family Thankhristmas by saying "I'm appalled that Trump gave Tulsi Gabbard and Vivek Ramaswamy jobs instead of punishing them for having the audacity to try to steal the nomination from him. He promised he'd take revenge on thise who opposed him. How dare he." #politics #trollingmyfamily

How the fuck are history books going to report this?
'Millions of deaths due to the removal of government regulations were due to the actions of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which was named after a meme coin that itself was named after a meme about a dog.'
