97.5% of the people Trump arrested in Chicago had no criminal record

100% of the people Trump pardoned for Jan 6 had criminal records

The difference is the former are mostly Latino & the latter are mostly white. This is systemic white supremacy in 2025. If you still don’t see it, you’re complicit

If a man said what Megyn Kelly said, you would assume he was a trafficker.

This young lady is wise beyond her years, but she is still a “child”and she would like a word…

I hope we find out who is behind the DHS’s social media.
I want a government that doesn’t sound like a deeply damaged, bratty boy when it communicates with citizens exercising their First Amendment rights.

there is actually a story in this revolting Nuzzi piece if you sandblast away the lies about a hot young woman being "in love" with a guy old enough to be her grandfather who looks like a catcher's mitt and sounds like an evil muppet

What New York Times calls “a light resume” for Seattle’s new progressive mayor turns out to be leading successful campaigns that expanded mass transit & housing & helped the city balance its budget. What a lightweight! www.nytimes.com/2025/11/13/u...
