I don't know anything, anything at all, about whether Trump knows anything, anything at all, about the people he's pardoning.

I haven't seen what everyone else has seen about what he said about what he hasn't seen about whatever a President is supposed to know.
Well...
...okay, so there is that...
Proof they come in a spirit of good will and peace.
Still, diversity of religious belief can be good. No harm in believing in reincarnation.

But it does set up a sort of Sophie's Choice for Dems:

"Accept insane monthly increases in health insurance for ordinary Americans, or we'll starve lots of kids."

Better for the country if the press accurately reported it that way.

You are right in that Congress set up the SNAP program with a reserve in case of future shutdowns. It allows an average of $6 a day per recipient struggling their way out of poverty,

Trump and Republicans are refusing to use it.
Two court decisions say that's illegal.
Journalist Arturo Dominguez reviews the sudden reassignment of ICE leadership in 5 major cities.

The replacements, all from CBP (Customs and Border Protection) signals a new level of ICE violence.

"Back then, groups of Druid youths would go door-to-door demanding treats, and if you refused to give them one, they would burn down your house. If, however, you gave them a treat, they would still burn down your house. That’s how religious they were."

I've given my new Senator a lot of shit on here. But I don't think anyone with power has laid out the stakes of what we're facing as clearly as she does right here.
