But it’s okay if you are a white drug lord.(He pardoned Ross Ulbricht).
Oh wait. Some cartel peddlers too.
(He pardoned Alice Marie Johnson for Kimmy K. The lady wasn’t some dime bag dealing granny. She was a cartel member dealing millions 🙄).

Not to be THAT dictionary, but…

It’s ‘per se,’ not ‘per say.’
It’s ‘dog-eat-dog world,’ not ‘doggy-dog world.’
It’s ‘hunger pangs,’ not ‘hunger pains.’
It’s ‘one and the same,’ not ‘one in the same.’
It's 'buck naked,' not 'butt naked.'

It’s hard to tell what’s intentional ( because he is a lifelong compulsive liar) and what is dementia (because he has that too). It doesn’t matter though because if the rest of Congress was doing their jobs it wouldn’t matter ☹️

In my younger days I was around this set.
Nothing is true for everyone…. But on the whole the self made folks were decent. Their kids were if they were older when parents made it. Ones who grew up with privilege are mostly entitled jerks.

In 1933, Adolf Hitler was legitimately made Chancellor of Germany. That doesn't mean that everything he did while in that office, like giving himself absolute power like a king, was legitimate, Meghan.

Mike Johnson: "We're fighting for healthcare as well. Not just in word but in deed. We put in the one big beautiful bill, real reforms to Medicaid to make it work better."

(The bill in fact cuts nearly $1 trillion from Medicaid.)

One arrest. For lewd behavior. Because a lady wore an inflatable dick costume and held a sign that says No DickTators 🤣🤣🤣🤣.
Not exactly looting or attempted murder.

Hi, I'm the ProPublica reporter who's been tracking an unusual stat: U.S. citizens grabbed by immigration agents.

I did it because the government isn’t.

This is what I found.

White words on a black background read:

50+
Immigration agents have the authority to detain whom they reasonably suspect are in the country illegally. We found more than 50 Americans who were held after agents questioned their citizenship. They were almost all Latino.

~130
Agents also can arrest citizens who allegedly interfered with or assaulted officers. We compiled cases of about 130 Americans, including a dozen elected officials, accused of assaulting or impeding officers.

~20
Among the citizens detained are nearly 20 children, including two with cancer.
