Here was the vice president defending the administration’s vile immigration policies
in a way that fundamentally degrades the experiences and traditions of his own family,
of people he is bound by vows —vows that should be sacred to a Christian —to love and protect.
It sums up Vance’s journey into public life and politics:
There is nobody he won’t betray,
and no principle he won’t cast aside, in his quest to accrue more fame and power.
This has been clear…

LinkedIn CEO Ryan Roslansky sees a lot of career advice on the site every day, but he doesn’t always agree with every piece that’s shared.
One common tip that Roslansky said is “a little bit outdated” is that
“you have to have a five-year plan,” he told content creator Erin McGoff in an interview for her YouTube channel AdviceWithErin.
In Roslansky’s view, having a five-year plan is “a little bit foolish,” he said:
given how rapidly technology and the workplace are ch…
Wow. I've dealt with various toxic personalities in software development, but a good portion of the time those toxic personalities were at least extremely knowledgeable in their (often, very limited) domain.

Trump’s assault on the city of Chicago began in September, and it claimed its first casualty quickly.
As Reuters would later report, on September 12, Silverio Villegas-Gonzalez dropped his kids off at their school in the suburb of Franklin Park on his way to his job at a diner on the northwest side.
Villegas-Gonzalez had come to the United States in 2007 to flee the violence in his home state of Michoacšn, Mexico

I have been an “end Canada’s connection to the Monarchy”* guy for awhile now. I heard Canadian constitutional expert Phillipe Lagasse say once that it would be a very big lift for Canada to do so because of the requirement to get all provinces to agree on a constitutional amendment, etc etc. In his opinion, the most likely way for it to happen, then, would be for the UK population to end the Royal family’s power themselves.
Seems that is starting to become more likely.
*I avoid using the term Republican because I don’t want to be confused with any notion of advocating for anything like the USA. A Canadian republic can look and function exactly the same as it does today while ending the royal head of state. Bermuda being the most recent example.

two Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers approached the 38-year-old in his car.

One officer continued to chase him on foot and eventually fired his weapon,
striking Villegas-Gonzalez, who crashed into a delivery truck
and was pronounced dead an hour later.
Officials of the Department of Homeland Security would later say that Villegas…
The White House points to a
seven-month snapshot
showing low inflation,
but economists say prices are closer to 3 percent.
The shutdown delays fresh data.
Most experts agree inflation has picked up in recent months,
in part because of Trump’s tariffs.
Economists expect more tariff-driven price increases in the months to come.
