“The problem is that Americans thought it was ok to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of The United States and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things.

Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of The United States and if we don’t wake up we may not have a United States.”

“We have hope that he will come back home. We’re going to apply pressure from every single angle.”

For nearly three decades, Brother Marwan has been a constant presence in the community. Until ICE came.

Trump's ICE Has Arrested a Pillar of the Dallas Muslim Community. I Grew Up Hearing His Calls for Compassion.

When I heard Marwan Marouf had been swept up in connection with decades-old charitable donations, my mind went to his gentle voice we sometimes had to strain to hear at the mosque.

Tom Homan is as crooked as they come. He must resign.

A tweet by George Conway says, “There is absolutely zero chance that a man who took $50,000 in cash in a paper bag from an FBI agent on camera would have been appointed to any position by any other president.” It quotes Armand Domalewski, who wrote, “There is absolutely zero chance JD would describe a Biden administration official accepting a $50,000 cash bribe in a paper bag as ‘fake scandal.’”

Frustration with the administration has been growing on Capitol Hill among members of both political parties. Some Republicans are seeking more information from the White House on the legal justification and details of the strikes. Democrats contend the strikes violate U.S. and international law.
