From The Tennessee Holler on Bsky and from 'X before that, apparently. Yeah, I won't link to X on personal principle.

(3,465 posts)All of the programs that made this decrease possible where instituted under Biden, but are just now showing results, which is normal for any program...it takes a while for it to bear fruit.
But Trump will thump his chest, and say it was all because of his deportation programs, etc. And the worse part is the damn press will let him get away with it.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
