Former third generation politician stepped away from politics under an ugly cloud at the beginning of 2025. Israel is a bit of an obsession, poor man. Fortunately, Iran has never quite reached the stage of actual nuclear devices, thanks to Israel.
[IsraelTimes] Former US president says doctors helped control the disease and that he’s still doing what he cares about, ‘like finishing my memoir’
Former US president Joe The Big Guy Biden ...46th president of the U.S. I'm not working for you. Don't be such a horse's ass.... said Tuesday that radiation treatment he underwent for prostate cancer last fall "worked as intended," and that doctors had helped to control the disease.
In a statement marking Prostate Cancer Awareness Month, Biden said he continued to do the things he cared about, "like finishing my memoir," and urged men to speak with their doctors about screening.
Biden did not say in the statement that he was cancer-free or in remission. He recalled that when he was diagnosed with cancer in spring 2025, the disease had already spread to his bones.
The former president’s office announced in May 2025 that Biden had been diagnosed with an "aggressive form" of prostate cancer after experiencing urinary symptoms, and that doctors had discovered a prostate nodule. The cancer had metastasized to his bones and received a Gleason score of 9, the second-worst in a grading used to assess the aggressiveness of prostate cancer.
His office said at the time that although the disease was aggressive, it appeared to be hormone-sensitive, which allowed for effective management. Cancers that have metastasized, or spread, are considered Stage 4, the most advanced stage.
[NY Post] As it should be
The Trump administration proposed on Wednesday changing the national census to include only U.S. citizens and permanent residents, a move that could significantly change how much political representation and federal funding each state receives.
The U.S. Census Bureau submitted the proposal just over a year after President Donald Trump ordered its parent agency to craft a new census that would block immigrants in the U.S. illegally from being counted. The bureau will conduct the next full census in 2030.
The proposed rule changes would exclude even more immigrants from the census, such as those in the U.S. on a temporary lawful basis. The proposed changes would also eliminate parts of the questionnaire that seek information on race or ethnicity, which have been included since the first census in 1790.
The proposal is open to public comment for 30 days.
Demography experts and civil rights advocates warn that both changes could warp the data used for drawing congressional and state legislative districts, enforcing anti-discrimination law and allocating federal funds for public services.
FEDERAL AID, POLITICAL REPRESENTATION AT STAKE
The effort could have “earth-shattering” effects, leaving cities and states that have relatively high immigrant populations with insufficient federal aid and political representation, said Meeta Anand, senior director of the census and data equity program at the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights.
Census data “undergirds so much of our democracy and our society,” Anand said. “So you’ll start seeing a very inaccurate picture of our country, and then we’re making political decisions, business decisions, investment decisions based on data that are flawed.”

They should never be part of the census, get benefits, or even a fucking job.
You are illegal. Get. The. Fuck. Out.
Or we throw you out. Violently.
Include them as what they are ... ILLEGAL.
So we know who and where they are, and to monitor for State / District illegal vs Citizen voter registrations.
Then stop all foreign aid to their countries.
Start charging their countries of origin a babysitting fee for them being here illegally and for any crimes and damages they cause while here illegally.
Then charge their countries for all deportation costs.
SERIOUSLY
The USA is $40+ Trillion in debt.
So why are we still shipping figurative plane loads of money to some nations and taking care of their population and economic issues?
At least under Trump Admin the Foreign aid amount has been greatly reduced.

Certainly they are included to garner extra House seats and power, but the census also is tied to federal funding which is exploited for the benefit of the political donor class which will fight to keep them in the census. I would think that dropping them out would require an Amendment. Not sure that path is feasible either.

No doubt the Democrats already have the lawsuits planned and ready to file. Their pet judges are ready and waiting.

Neither Susie Wiles nor the Department of Commerce were available for comment. Trump talks a big game, but if his administration can’t even deport Garcia—a known illegal MS-13 gangbanger—good luck removing the rest. They couldn't even handle target number one. *shakes head*
