Check-in/Check-off 

Check-in/Check-off
References used among inmates incarcerated within institutions of the Canadian Prairie region and possibly other institutions nationally or internationally.

Check-in: An inmate who is unstable and acts in such a way that Corrections Officers are left with no option but to upgrade the inmate's security level and have him or her removed from a low security setting.

Check-off: An inmate who is forced to move units by other inmates. This scenario is often initiated by gang members in an attempt to create available bed-space with the hope that free beds will be given to "bro's" or, in the case of a woman's institution, "bitches."
Check-in/Check-off

Check-in: "Fuck, bro, look at this crazy check-in. What a bitch. The goof (see definition) didn't last a minute before freaking."

Check-off: "You'd better check-off, bitch. The bro's need a bed and if you don't check-off you're gonna get done-up (likely stabbed with an improvised weapon , or shank (see definition), or severely beaten. )

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
