Most Americans Now Believe Billionaires Are A Threat To Democracy, New Data Shows
The fact that Forbes is reporting this is notable, no?

Yes, but the important thing is that Forbes, home of lists like the 500 Richest Men in America, the magazine that pushes that you're failing at life if you don't have more money than god, is reporting this, they're the type to pretend that everyone loves the rich, so them reporting this is rather noteworthy

BREAKING: ICE just tried to deport this woman, but there was just one problem β she was Native American.You read that right: Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) β the agency supposedly tasked with deporting undocumented immigrants β just tried to deport an Indigenous woman whose ancestors have been here for thousands of years.
Leticia Jacobo, a 24-year-old member of Arizonaβs Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community, was born in Phoenix β but that didnβt stop ICE from trying to ship her βbackβ to a country she doesnβt even belong to.
Hereβs how this jaw-dropping injustice unfolded: Jacobo was sitting in a Polk County, Iowa jail after being booked for allegedly driving with a suspended license β nothing violent, nothing serious.
Her mother, Ericka Burns, was preparing to pick her up and bring her home when jail staff dropped a bombshell: βSheβs not being released. ICE is coming to deport her.β
Her mom was stunned. βHow can you deport her?β she asked. βSheβs Native American!β
But the jail staff shrugged it off. They said they were βjust holding herβ for ICE. No one β not a single person β could explain how or why this was happening.
Jacoboβs family went into overdrive β calling, emailing, begging officials to stop what was about to become one of the most shameful bureaucratic blunders in modern history. They reached out to tribal leaders, shared pleas on Facebook, and even showed up at the jail with her birth certificate to prove sheβs an American citizen.
And still, officials hesitated. Hours ticked by while ICE prepared to take her.
Finally, after an agonizing all-night standoff, she was released around 4:30 a.m. β barely.
And whatβs ICEβs excuse? A βclerical error.β
Lt. Mark Chance from the Polk County Sheriffβs Office casually dismissed it as βhuman error.β Just a little mix-up, they said. The detainer was meant for someone else, and they just happened to attach it to the file of a Native American woman born on U.S. soil.
βWeβll have some meetings about it,β Chance said. βThis is silly.β
Silly? This wasnβt βsilly.β This was an attempted deportation of a woman whose people are the original inhabitants of this land, by a government agency that has no idea whose land itβs even on.
Let that sink in: the United States government almost deported an Indigenous woman from her own country.
This is what happens when an agency like ICE is given unchecked power β where βclerical errorsβ can destroy lives, and where systemic racism and dehumanization are written into the paperwork. If her family hadnβt fought like hell, Leticia Jacobo could have been vanished into ICE custody β another name lost in a broken, brutal system.
Itβs time to abolish this corrupt and incompetent agency that canβt even tell the difference between an immigrant and an Indigenous citizen.
Because if ICE can come for Native Americans, they can come for anyone. "

I suppose I should ask about hosting costs, since SpaceHost hadn't been billing me for a while due to whatever was going on behind the scenes.
Hey, we want to do this right.
First, weβre making sure whoever can be migrated has the opportunity to migrateβensure their communities continue.
Then weβre going to reveal pricing and invite more people over in a way thatβs sustainable to continued service.
What I can say confidently is that pricing will not rise, nor will you be back-billed. Stay tuned!

I don't believe trump will leave the white house until you guys force him to, and I do mean force.
Nothing count as "truth" anymore. Except maybe what the "president" "truthed".
Y'all should have taken this a whole lot more seriously, because "seriousness" isn't going to play this one out.
