He built a picnic table across the border wall, where Mexicans and Americans shared a meal. The baby is watching over a wall. He does amazing projects.

This is happening in too many places to list

Everyone with a rational thought process should be ashamed of it

There is no excuse other than racist in charge for this happening

Please take a stand against these terrifying illegal arrests

Peaceful protesting is

MINNEAPOLIS: “All I did was step outside as a Somali American citizen, and I got chased by a masked person, assaulted, kidnapped. It was inhumane. If this is what’s happening to a 🇺🇸 citizen on camera, imagine what could happen to your loved ones.”

Little known fact, Ken Starr suffered for four months in intensive care. Karma had been watching carefully.
Ken Starr and Jeffrey Epstein had a weird relationship that I need to explore more.

Is Trump getting weaker, or is the authoritarian danger increasing? Yes.

Tuesday - ICE agents used pepper spray to push through a crowd that blocked their vehicles as they checked IDs in a Somali neighborhood of Minneapolis.

The Trump administration is targeting this community and they know it.

Reality
Despite Trump’s tariffs, China’s goods trade surplus topped $1 trillion in the first 11 months of 2025. Meanwhile, the US trade deficit continues to widen.

Whatever SCOTUS decides, nothing will remove the stench of the FedSoc cabal’s earlier shadow docket vacatur of the lower court injunction: legally indefensible, a lemon meringue pie in the face of the American public. These aren’t Justices: they’re embarrassing partisan hacks.

Enough!
JUST IN: Assistant U.S. Attorney Jeffrey Snell just confirmed, at the prodding of U.S. Magistrate Judge Keri Holleb Hotaling, that this motion for dismissal followed a "no bill" from a grand jury.

That means the grand jury refused to indict.
U.S. prosecutors in Chicago are dropping another case tied to Operation Midway Blitz, "without prejudice."

It's USA v. Nathan Griffin. Below is the motion, followed by excerpts from the complaint.

The feds don't say why they're dropping it, but they had until today to secure an indictment.

Exclusive: ICE has developed a plan to arrest undocumented migrants who try to voluntarily leave the U.S. via the Mexico border, so they can face formal removal.

Why bother? Possibly to juice deportation numbers.

It's being referred to as "Operation Irish Goodbye."

“Operation Irish Goodbye,” as it’s being called, could be aimed at boosting numbers for Trump’s much-hyped deportation campaign.

I'm so old, I remember when the GOP sanctioned Steve King for tweeting racist shit like "we can't restore our civilization with someone else's babies." Now King's white nationalism is just mainstream GOP discourse. bsky.app/profile/seth...
This is what Steve King (the co-chair of Ted Cruz's 2016 Presidential campaign) meant in 2017 when he said "we can't restore our civilization with someone else's babies." This earned Steve King an exuberant retweet from David Duke. Finally the Republicans were getting it!

ALL Republicans are Nazis.
Just listened to this insightful conversation with @zackbeauchamp.bsky.social about how today's GOP is basically in line with the alt-right ca. 2016. As Damon Linker has put it, "the fringe has become the carpet." slate.com/podcasts/wha...
It’s the Alt-Right’s GOP Now
The debate in the GOP has devolved to “how far do we take our racism”?

We should see MAGAts picking produce. Really.
If racist white people are so convinced of their superiority, why are they terrified about hard-working black and brown people showing up? Why are they afraid of the competition?

This is hilarious. Bari's new anchorman is going to leave the studio to...cover the news. What a crazy, innovative idea. Wow.

But beware of the right-wing 'fairness' argument she's making here (again). That's MAGA code for pretending demonstrable lies are equal to documented facts. 1/
