Once the merger goes through, I expect HBO’s Critical Incident: Death at the border to be on borrowed time. They won’t even let me buy a dvd. It exposes current CBP Commish Scott’s history of using coverup teams. Please watch it. Please share.

Today marks 14 years since 17-year-old, unarmed Trayvon Martin was shot and killed while walking home.

14 years later, we’re still demanding a country where our children can walk home in peace β€” without being treated like a threat.

This is Bowie. He suddenly began experiencing intense vomiting and diarrhea due to acute gastroenteritis, the inflammation of the stomach and intestines. His case was so severe, he needed emergency hospitalization and IV therapy to recover. You can help pay for his care below β€οΈβ€πŸ©Ή

Healthcare in Greenland is publicly funded, free at the point of use, and despite geographical challenges considered very good.

Healthcare costs in the USA are extortionate and responsible for 60% of all US bankruptcies.

So maybe Denmark should be sending hospital ships the other way.

"So why did ICE detain her, and keep her locked up for so long? A possible answer began to emerge over the weeks she was incarcerated. As Karen got to know the guards...she kept hearing the same thing from them...'Individual ICE agents get money per head that they detain – the guards told me that'”

"Real gross domestic product (GDP) increased at an annual rate of 1.4 percent in the fourth quarter of 2025 (October, November, and December), according to the advance estimate"

It would’ve cost about $30 billion to pay for subsidies so we could afford to get health insurance

Then Trump would’ve had $8 billion left to help lower the cost of food

Instead, he’s paying for ICE to build concentration camps

While Americans are uninsured and broke
