It is the only thing keeping the Chicago economy afloat.
What’s going to be absolutely outrageous is the public funding that would go into killing Cartel leaders with the hope that drug addicts don’t discover *other* ways of obtaining drugs. Imagine how well we could fund an expansive drug treatment program with the money that will go toward a literal war on drugs.

Not really it’s a big place
It’s a gun free zone so when people move there or pass through, they get rid of them to Mexico
Hopefully they don’t spend enough to make doctors into even bigger opiate dealers. I’d hate to see their families get shot by the army because they wrote a bunch of fraudulent scripts or something.

You're underestimating how much of all this is performative. He never intended for Gaetz to be AG. It was a cheap way to own the libs for a few news cycles. And the war on drugs is mostly performative as well. Panama ditto. Greenland ditto. Mass deportations ditto. Tariffs maybe he'll do. He's kind of boxed himself in on that one since he has the authority to enact them without Congressional approval.
It's gonna be hilarious watching the upcoming effort on the debt ceiling.

No, I called it out at the time thethe was still doing a victory lap about his confirmation chances. He just gave his buddy a golden parachute out of Congress.
I laughed, but “the death penalty immediately” is either a lie or an authoritarian overreach disguised as protecting kids. The US Border Patrol cannot be made judge, jury and executioner. And we have a lot of laws in place for good reasons to protect from allowing the death sentence being anything but a methodical affair.
Okay, but that’s a clip of Trump’s own words posted today (on Christmas Eve lol) by one of the people you describe as a Trump cultist without any context. Again, what’s being advocated for here is illegal, and you yourself know it’s a lie. But the people who don’t trust the “fake news” will be talking about Trump’s plan to save us from human traffickers by executing people immediately, and claiming anybody who opposes it just wants to continue human trafficking. You can see for yourself in the comments.
This sounds an awful lot like identity politics. I don’t see anything regarding immigration policy in the title of his role. If he’s good at building AI policy why would there be any concern with his personal views? I thought the goal was to get rid of such considerations and just go off of merit?

From Laura's tweet: How will be control immigration in our country and promote America First innovation when Trump appointed this guy who wants to REMOVE all restrictions on green card caps in the United States so that foreign students (which makes up 78% of the employees in Silicon Valley) can come to the US and take jobs that should be given to American STEM students.
My answer: America is great in large part because of these talented immigrants who are leading the way in Silicon Valley and elsewhere. The question she and others should be asking is why children of native-born Americans can't make the cut in STEM fields (and other fields).
I post once again an interesting article discussing the backgrounds of the co-authors of what is probably the most important scientific paper ("Attention is All You Need") of our time. We should be grateful that they and their parents came to this country.

The written article requires a subscription. But the audio version is available to anyone. I highly recommend it. It is a great story.
