Well, he’s on ice. So I guess he’s not entirely wrong
"I'm ICE, boys." Hubris and arrogance, anyone?
ICE employee among 16 men arrested in Bloomington sex trafficking sting, police say.
"When he was arrested, he said, 'I'm ICE, boys,'" Hodges said during a press conference Tuesday. "Well, unfortunately for him, we locked him up."

Men, let’s all go tell the women in our lives, “quiet, piggy.” You first
I’m still thinking about “quiet, piggy.” No president should be able to speak to a member of the press that way and remain president. That moment encapsulates how vile, misogynistic, and horrible that man is.

Let’s be clear: The DOJ has already been subpoenaed. They’re legally obligated to release the full Epstein files—and they’re still dragging their feet.
It’s a shame we’ve even gotten to the point of needing a discharge petition.

Trump: Epstein and I had a very bad relationship for many years. You have got to find out what did he know with respect to Bill Clinton… all those people that knew including JP Morgan Chase..
Reporter: If there is nothing incriminating in the files, why not—

The historical record is crystal clear when it comes to what happens to the economy when the Republicans are in charge
I don’t know how bad the economic numbers are going to end up this quarter. But I do know the party that controls the presidency, House and Senate is going to blame the party that doesn’t.

The America First guy has brought in 566 foreign workers during his 5 years in office to work at his companies instead of hiring Americans. And counting.

Can’t browbeat me into respecting a rapist with 47 felonies, who pardons insurrections and election stealers, and allows the family of a drug kingpin to waltz into our country
Exactly right. Why should we respect a president who doesn’t respect the constitution he swore an oath to uphold?

Republicans’ idea of what is affordable includes things that benefit Trump and the billionaires, and excludes things that help the people.
The people are the ones paying for it.

But removing monuments to confederate traitors is erasing history
1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️
