they must be out of their minds - this will cause an irrepairable erosion of trust with the public


Q: At the end of this year, those extended Obamacare subsidies expire.

What's your message to those 24m Americans who will see their premiums go up?

TRUMP: Don't make it sound so bad.

Obviously you're a sycophant for Democrats.

You're obviously a provider of bad news for Republicans.

I took this photo several weeks ago in Garden of the Gods. I love it because it looks (and felt) so calm and serene. In actuality, it is only a few feet away from a really loud, busy photo op area along one of the popular, short trails that gets swamped with tourists. Approaching the area, most people went to the left…I went to the right, and found myself on this peaceful little tree-lined path. ❤️

I found a butcherbird sunbaking this morning, and when they were done, I spotted them returning to a nest, and their partner then went off to forage, and they didn't mind me getting close, so I got this video

The Trump administration is providing the names of all air travelers to immigration officials,
substantially expanding its use of data sharing to expel people under deportation orders.

Under the previously undisclosed program, the Transportation Security Administration provides a list multiple times a week to Immigration and Customs Enforcement of travelers who will be coming through airports.

ICE can then match the list against its own database of people subject to deportation and send agents to the airport to detain those people.

It’s unclear how many arrests have been made as a result of the collaboration.

But documents obtained by The New York Times show that it led to the arrest of
Any Lucía López Belloza,

the college student picked up at Boston Logan Airport on Nov. 20 and deported to Honduras two days later.

A former ICE official said 75 percent of instances in that official’s region where names were flagged by the program yielded arrests.

Inside you, there are two owls.

ALL Politicians should be on the same wage as the rest of us, no perks, pay for their own families vacations out of their own pay packet like the rest of us, and no "tax exemption for life" or ongoing pay packets after retiring either.

The Perks, Rorts, Bribes & corruption must end.
