*We* can multitask. We can be equally horrified by journalists being arrested, ICE brutality, AND the Epstein files. While also paying attention to R shenanigans related to DHS funding (and Graham’s money grab). Come on MSM, you can do it, too!

AOC: Nearly a trillion dollars in healthcare was taken out and given to ICE. Your healthcare costs have skyrocketed because Republicans value greed and cruelty. You get screwed over in order to pay a bunch of thugs in the streets to shoot mothers in the face. That is what this regime is doing.

I just contacted the NYT’s newsroom asking why they aren’t relentlessly covering Trump’s obvious cognitive breakdown and pointed out that it’s a national security issue at this point. I also reminded them that they deemed every Biden gaffe to be late stage dementia but they keep sanewashing Trump.

There is an area in the ICE detention center in Minneapolis designated specifically for American citizens. Contemplate that for a minute.

To understand why Venezuela, look up Trump billionaire donor Paul Singer and Citgo, who'd been pushing for change in that country.
To understand why Greenland, look up Trump billionaire donor Ron Lauder (who planted the idea of Greenland in trump's head) and Greenland Water Bank.

This is Ron Lauder, the sole heir to the Estée Lauder cosmetics company, a multi-billionaire and BIG Trump donor. He's been pushing Trump to take over Greenland.
For starters, I suggest that we BOYCOTT Estée Lauder cosmetics.

Over the last year, Trump has pardoned or commuted the sentences of many wealthy business executives with ties to his regime, businesses, or campaign.
If you’re rich, well-connected, or have something to offer Trump, a presidential pardon is a possibility. The White House is now a pay-to-play.

Trump pardoned the ex-president of Honduras who shoveled hundreds of tons of cocaine into the U.S. He pardoned the founder of a black market who imported fentanyl from China.
These men poisoned America & killed millions. Whatever Trump’s illegal boat strikes are about, it sure isn’t drugs.

My spousal unit and I are Gen Jones. We were just having a conversation about what our respective schools used as "pizza crusts." Question: If your cafeteria didn't use pizza crust on pizza day, did they use the bottom of a hamburger bun (my husband's) or an English muffin (mine)? Or??
