๐Ÿšจ They didn't lose the child's age. They were trained to leave it out. Under federal immigration law, sexual abuse of a minor is an aggravated felony. For a noncitizen, it means mandatory detention, deportation and a permanent bar from ever coming back. In my 24 years at ICE ERO, those were the cases we never let slide. The key element is the child's age. Take the age out of the conviction and you take out the aggravated felony. According to the House Judiciary Committee report, the Bronx DA's 2019 plea-bargaining guide told prosecutors in these cases to "offer something that does not have the child's age as an element." Think about what that means. A grown man commits a sex crime against a child. He pleads to something that, on paper, could have been against an adult. The record that reaches ICE no longer shows a child victim. The removal case falls apart, and he stays here. The child didn't get a plea deal. The child gets to live with it, and maybe in the same neighborhood as him. This came out Oct. 26. Two weeks later there's been no outrage from the Bronx DA, the AG or the networks. Nothing. @claudiatenney @JudiciaryGOP @Jim_Jordan @itsyourgov @NMalliotakis @EliseStefanik foxnews.com/politics/house-rโ€ฆ

A cut from the Democracy Files. Long but worth it. Hear them explain what they mean by "our democracy" in their own words.
They don't mean democracy. Democracy means listening to the people. I used to call myself a technopeasant. I was a technocrat in Silicon Valley, and I learned better. User interface folks need to listen to users (blush), and even love them a bit. Technocrats annoy me now. I want to take my pitchfork and storm the castle. Their glossary makes the word mean rule by people with the right credentials. The appointed sense-makers do the speaking. Elections and regular people need not apply. They decide who gets the credential. Here they are, saying it. We've tried rule by experts. It sucks. Experts are still humans, and humans get things wrong. (Grumpy Note: This one is long, 50 minutes. At 5am I cut it to solo shots of the leaders because you have to forgive the gullible. The first cut was almost 3 hours, and it also put 56 other people on screen.)

Democrats and Republicans are socialists with exceptions, or, if you prefer, central planners with exceptions. If you want to argue that Republicans make more exceptions, fine. But here's what matters: those exceptions, the remaining freedoms to produce, trade, invest, and prosper, are hanging by a thread. And it's those very freedoms that sustain the civilization and prosperity both parties take credit for while steadily undermining them.

Donโ€™t be so afraid of cancel culture that you end up blindly defending human feces. Believe it or not, itโ€™s actually in your rational self-interest to disassociate from certain people. Freedom of association includes the freedom to refuse association.

๐ŸšจTHEY FILLED THE CAR WITH BALLOTSโ€ฆ AND SAID WHO WAS DOING IT James Oโ€™Keefeโ€™s undercover cameras caught it cold. A ballot harvester in Minnesota shows the trunk and dashboard packed: โ€œYou can see my car is full. All these here are absentee ballots. Canโ€™t you see? Look at all these. My car is full.โ€ 300 in one haul. When asked who fills them out: โ€œPeople who work with Ilhan and other candidatesโ€ฆ they work for them.โ€ Cash changes hands. Elders get visited. Blank or open ballots leave the building. Minnesota law limits how many you can carry. Federal law bans the pay-to-vote scheme. None of it mattered. This is the same machine still fighting every single effort to require citizenship proof and clean the rolls. The same people who call election security โ€œdisenfranchisement.โ€ They never stopped. They just got quieter about the receipts. Pass the SAVE Act. Clean the rolls. End the harvest. The patriots are done pretending this is normal.

This is ridiculous
The Senate finally returns after 39 days of vacation. They report at 3 PM then leave Tuesday for another five days off. The most worthless Senate ever has 700 House-passed bills on John Thuneโ€™s desk awaiting a vote. John Thune is the worst majority leader ever.
