Vance says ICE is protected by absolute immunity. Immunity for murdering a U.S. citizen? WTF. Do all Americans now have absolute immunity to do whatever they want? That’s an absurd argument.

Not only do we routinely see kids dying in ICE custody, now they’re missing nearly 1000 people who were being held in Alligator Alcatraz?

HOW THE HELL is this not a stop the presses moment?

We can only hope it’s not a Brubaker moment.

Tariffs are not "creating wealth". They impose higher costs to U.S. consumers. The money comes out of your wallet. There is no directive on how the Government "tariff income" is actually used. Tax breaks for the rich will not improve the lives of middle-class America.

Fact check:

mRNA vaccines for respiratory viruses are meant to prevent severe illness (bad Pneumonia).

This means beefing up our immunity in the *lower* respiratory tract, eg the lungs.

Kennedy talks about the *upper* respiratory tract and vaccine efficacy in nonsensical gibberish.

Job growth is slowing to levels not seen since the pandemic.

Inflation is up as more tariffs hit.

Meanwhile, Trump is opening new golf courses, planning for a $200M White House ballroom, and diverting taxpayer dollars to renovate his "free" jet from Qatar.

the tax hikes these people go apocalyptic about are, in relative terms, almost always tiny - the MA millionaires’ tax, for example, is 4% on income above $1M
