One of the things I’ve learned in my many years is people who are theoretical about violence have almost never personally experienced violence.

obviously the hispanic shift but high density of white non-college voters is part of it. this swath of land is 3.3 million people where only 23% went to college and 77% didn't. much lower than nat'l avg people who couldn't afford to retire in sarasota and palm beach.

On April 22, 2000, in a pre-dawn raid, Border Patrol agents, under orders from United States Attorney General Janet Reno, seized six-year-old Elián González from his relatives’ home in Miami, Florida, ending one of the most publicized custody battles in U.S. history

Something that has dominated my thoughts for the past ten years. Circa 2010 a Republican operative lightly criticizing of Obama - the only things that matter in the economy and business is stability and certainty.

We are not enforcing the Tik-Tok ban that *we signed into law* but we are unilaterally declaring the Equal Rights Amendment ratified is an odd final play for the Biden administration.

Congress panics realizing no one is going to buy TikTok before the ban (a problem they created!), with Sen. Schumer saying: " It's clear that more time is needed to find an American buyer and not disrupt the lives and livelihoods of millions of Americans of so many influencers

If this is the end, I’ll just say what I’ve said before. Some of you I like. Some of you I love. The rest of you get what you deserve.
