Donald was just spotted flipping off a Ford worker who yelled "pedophile protector" during Trump’s visit to the factory today.
Whatever you do don't call @realDonaldTrump a pedophile protector today. He hates that.

“Donald Trump is a man who represents all the things we teach our children not to be. He’s a liar. He’s a thief. He’s a molester. He has no remorse, no shame, no empathy. He has no loyalty to the law, to the Constitution. This man is the lowest character of all.”

The United States government has gone rogue. Anybody working with them should be considered an enemy of the citizens of the United States and of the world at large. A terrorist oligarchy has taken control.

ICE must go!😡
Reports and videos show ICE agents asking American citizens whether they’ve “learned their lesson over the last few days” are deeply troubling. Language like this implies intent and raises serious questions about premeditation and mindset on the scene.

In the budget discussions, Dems should refuse to fund ICE unless agents can’t wear masks, they must identify themselves and must read people their Miranda rights. Even with these conditions, ICE funding should be limited to border operations.
Stop further shootings.

The American people electing Trump after he staged a coup attempt 5 years ago was a nail in the coffin of our democracy. You can rationalize it all you want - But inflation! But wokeness! - but ultimately it was a societal suicide attempt and probably the dumbest collective voting decision ever made
