They keep booking these guests thinking that they’re informing Americans by asking “tough questions” into the air, and having them ignored.
If you want answers, invite actual experts. Look some people up. Do some “reporting” and find someone knowledgeable. Come on, already.

Kristi Noem refuses to directly answer a question about what Trump means by "remigration" -- a word that, as Kristen Welker notes, is often invoked by white nationalists in Europe

Reuters reached out to everyone that Trump or his subordinates singled out publicly for retribution, and reviewed hundreds of official orders, directives and public records. The result: the most comprehensive accounting yet of his campaign of payback.

Ordering our troops to commit murder is a crime. Period.
The Washington Post story on the 'take no prisoners' order from Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth is clear evidence that the Trump Administration is giving illegal orders to our troops

He is flatly wrong.
Trump makes the outrageous claim that “most” immigrants, which include over 25 million U.S. citizens, “are on welfare, from failed nations, or from prisons, mental institutions, gangs, or drug cartels.”

He says where there’s premeditated murder, punishment must be swift.
He knew cutting USAID would kill people.
He did it anyways.

From 1819 to 1969, US Govt stole tens of thousands of Indigenous kids—forcing them to convert to Christianity & stripping them of their identities. Resistance was met with violence. Sexual abuse was rampant.
