When you add it all up, the collapse in immigration looks like this: a decline of roughly 50K for illegal (even including the people arrested and not released) and a decline of about 132K for legal. Over 70% of the cut in immigration has come from LEGAL immigration.

Mattie is there a 'mute bluesky' button I'm missing?

ROMEO, BAKER M. @BakerMikeRomeo • 2h why would the pope care about your book Rod Dreher @roddreher • 1h Because it was widely denounced by Antonio Spadaro, SJ, and others as "anti-Francis" (which it's not, but that was the line in Civilta Cattolica, which Francis reads and has to approve before publication). And Francis's people called around Italy before my book tour asking... ROMEO, BAKER M. @BakerMikeRomeo Replying to @roddreher ok so here's the thing: he's the pope, right and you're explaining to a cartoon rabbit on the internet why you're important enough that the pope should know who you are

Since we’re all making fun of Rod Dreher, I think about this at least once a week

The US isn’t as as bad as Hungary of course but it’s very very obvious that the media environment shapes how people think about political issues! It would be weird to deny it in Hungary and it’s weird when people do it here about trans rights or vaccine hesitancy or anything else.

Pelosi used to have juice. Although in her defense, she's pushing for impeachment now and has at least impeached Trump twice.

I called Greg Meeks' office in Dec '20 to ask why Dems weren't impeaching turd-brain for attempts to overturn Biden's election win. They said "they were letting the courts handle it"

Soon after they were tweeting about how scary it was to be there for the Jan 6th attack

Doing nothing doesn't work

The obvious answer here is that the student protest movement was broadly smeared as anti-semitic and aligned with terrorists, and a variety of institutions from government, media and the universities acted as if that smear was true, threatening, suspending, expelling and even deporting students.

I mean you also work with a pedophile group (Prostasia) that put minors in chatrooms with adults in the org so genuinely I do not need to listen to you one single bit

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

5th Yankee to pitch in 8 of the first 11 games of a season (8 for Dave Righetti in 1985, Jeff Nelson in 1998, Luis Vizcaino & Scott Proctor in 2007)

What is the combination of the Israel Lobby, Christian Zionism (Southeast Queens is churchy) and risk-averse conservatism that makes @meeks.house.gov, and the Queens machine, this way?

The thing about Ahab was that he had a consistent operational objective, could hold a thought in his head for more than 45 seconds, and frequently navigated high-stakes professional situations without falling asleep

Man the city with the most public transit riders has been run for the past 4 years by outer borough council members who live out of their car

That is, what, 180 ft from home plate?

Teams continue to run on Roman Anthony

I guess the Roman Anthony Superstar discourse disregards the fact he's got a candy arm with zero accuracy

tfw you realize the David Hamilton Era in Boston has ended

Hochul broke her promise to protect SNAP. She has to fix it | Opinion Gov. Kathy Hochul must maintain her promise to protect some of New York's most vulnerable residents — SNAP recipients

Pamela Stevens, SNAP recipient & community leader in the Hudson Valley, is sick of @governor.ny.gov’s broken promises: "Low-income and working-class people are an important pat of Hochul’s base, and we are tired of her putting our needs on the back burner." www.lohud.com/story/opinio...

You cannot have a government with a party that is trying to overthrow the government

I've posted it several times before, but the hardest I have personally laughed at a tweet.

C.B. Bucknor blows a call while not watching it

Mfer filibustered for 25 hours then confirmed Kushner's fucking dad to a position. Maybe he and Rahm can run on the "not a goddamn chance" party ticket.

no sign to tap but periodic reminder that 'HEY EVERYONE FOSSIL FUELS MAKE PLASTICS AND THEY'RE RARELY EVER RECYCLED OR REUSED'

Also, that plastic production is responsible for 4x the carbon emissions of the airline industry

I'm with you George but does Navarro still think Marco Rubio is "a good boy" (as she described him on The View a few years ago)?

imagine the Pope personally calling you a fake bitch who's going to hell lol

It gets me every time. Even the train ride uptown is great as more people get on with their signs as we approach.

Today was definitely the most diverse and spirited of the NYC marches, just beautiful. It makes you proud and reassures you: We're gonna win.

“Don’t do a resistance! Dear leader already planned for it!” Is literally fascist propaganda, get fucked.
