His policies may end up making America less Christian. That’s in large part because younger white Americans are one of the least religious groups in the country — while nonwhite Americans and immigrants are among the most religious.

Why Trump's immigration crackdown may make America less Christian

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

The Utah GOP is currently gathering signatures to put a full repeal of Proposition 4 on the ballot next year. They can’t stand the people having a voice, so they are pulling out all the stops in order to give our power back to the legislature. If you see someone gathering signatures, DON’T SIGN!

This week alone:

-Trump called for Democrats in Congress to be hanged.

-Defended the slaughter of a U.S. journalist in front of his killer.

-Surrendered to the murderous Putin who he called a "savvy genius" after his attack on Ukraine.

This guy is the greatest threat to America we've ever known.

Too late. Marco Rubio already spilled the truth. The so called peace plan was Russia’s wish list, not something the US drafted. He’s trying to walk it back but the damage is done.

He’s scrambling.
