  • Meanwhile at ICE, Vitello told agents in January to aim to meet a daily quota of 1,200-1,400 arrests. According to numbers ICE has posted on X, the highest single day total since Trump was inaugurated was just 1,100, and the number has fallen since that day. On Tuesday of this week, arrests of immigrants were over 800, according to a source familiar with the numbers. But last weekend, there were only about 300 arrests, another source told NBC News.

    And, as NBC News has reported, arrests do not always equal immediate detentions, much less deportations. Of the more than 8,000 immigrants arrested in the first two weeks of the Trump administration, 461 were released, according to the White House.

    I still chuckle at the user that told me deportation was not Trump’s point.












  • “We have no visibility into what they are doing with the computer and data systems,” one of the officials said. “That is creating great concern. There is no oversight. It creates real cybersecurity and hacking implications.”

    A team including current and former employees of Musk assumed command of OPM on Jan. 20, the day Trump took office. They have moved sofa beds onto the fifth floor of the agency’s headquarters, which contains the director’s office and can only be accessed with a security badge or a security escort, one of the OPM employees said.

    The sofa beds have been installed so the team can work around the clock, the employee said.

    The new appointees in charge of OPM have moved the agency’s chief management officer, Katie Malague, out of her office and to a new office on a different floor, the officials said.





  • I’ve not extensively researched this but: Fish oil. And I think everyone should take a multivitamin. The magnesium oxide and zinc oxide in multis are hard to absorb, so take additional magnesium and zinc. Zinc comes in 50 mg, RDA is 11, so I cut it into 4.

    Finally motion is lotion. Go through full ranges of motion. Cartilage has very little blood flow and requires the fluid around it to move to get nutrients and such. Little bits throughout the day are probably better than lots once a week. Don’t resume running because that’s high impact. Do sprints if you really want that kind of motion.
