I'll also note this:

Crop insurance companies are already strategizing how to minimize their losses as climate change intensifies. Since they receive federal subsidies, they cannot withdraw from markets as easily as home insurance providers have in fire-, hurricane- and flood-prone areas.

Last year, the federal government blocked insurance providers’ attempts to pull out of West Texas, a region that’s been scorched by heat and drought.

They used to. They don't on vehicles made in roughly the last 8-10 years depending on manufacturer.

ICE is legally required to give them access to inspect it.

It takes active recruitment if we want the military on the side of the people.

Even the big operations break in unexpected ways. Facebook accidentally broke the authentication for their door locks when they took the site down a few years back and had to fly people to a datacenter and break down a door to get to servers and restart things.

The national guard showed up this morning after being federalized against a governor's wishes for the first time since school desegregation

Yeah, but a bunch of today's events were in the county, not the city, and the county sheriff are the ones that are most willing to hurt people.

Edit: Gov Newsom is deploying the CHP. Hopefully they have orders to keep the other cops from going on a murder rampage

The sheriff is his own elected official, and you can't run for the position unless you're a cop.

Unfortunately local cops are in favor of killing citizens.

ICE has been raiding elementary schools in the past few days.

I dont expect 2nd graders to read the article.

Thanks for letting us know what is going on.

Most kids don't have the set of photos you describe in government databases.

Most news coverage doesn't make the connection. I don't think people realize why that's happening, or even that their congressmembers have voted to kill jobs.
