What federal immunity? So far, under Trump v. US, that only applies to the president acting in official capacity. The ICE agents are on the hook, while Trump skates away free.

I thought the smart politics was to try to expand your base. Do they actually think voters will be persuaded by threats like this unless they vote Republican?

Like there is a shortage of hatemongering racists, bigots, misogynists, homophobes, transphobes, xenophobes, Islamophobes, anti-Semites, and authoritarian, patriarchal cheerleaders to hear from.

She acts like she's never going to face the consequences of what she's doing.

Another problem is that Trump doesn't care. He's in this for personal grift and has zero interest in how it affects US interests, especially long-term ones.

We need our own Project and reform of the Judiciary has to be at the top and starting with the top.

Absolutely unprofessional goons. They look ridiculous.

Free trade was part of the whole Republican economic philosophy. Trump is a fucking moron.

He gave amnesty. Not even one Democrat has the balls to say that these days.

Post-Trump surtax on billionaires to cover the cost of demolishing the ballroom and restoration of the White House to the dignified home of the Executive of a Republic that it always was before.

No pity for Melanoma.

You're not alone! I remember Watergate too but that test turned out to be a vindication that our system worked. I think we need a complete reboot now because the old system has finally failed.

They'll grill the Argentine beef. And the ranchers who supported Trump will go to bed hungry.

Too little and too late.

We should all file a class action against him for causing our pain and suffering.

Look on the bright side. She's bound to fuck up the prosecutions she's conducting.

Maybe news outlets need to put the resources now reporting the administration's lies into real reporting on what's actually happening on the ground.

Rich @rich2d.bsky.social · 2d

Even if he actually gave it to a charity it would be for a tax write-off. The man is vile. Since when do people get reimbursed for legal fees when investigated for criminal activity anyway? How about those violated by ICE who were wrongfully detained?

He's basically stealing money directly out of the Treasury.

Rich @rich2d.bsky.social · 2d

Coup, please.

Rich @rich2d.bsky.social · 2d

He's creating public works project #1 for the next administration. Do the same thing to his new ballroom.
