FOX: Here's a viral video of landscapers who were being addressed by a CBP agent. What do you say to people who say that falls outside the purview of getting criminals out?

GREG BOVINO: Martha, do we know the criminal records of those so-called landscapers?

There has never been a clearer example of the fact that we do not have a legislature in the United States right now. Trump tells them to vote no, so they all vote no. Then Trump changes his mind and they all change their votes. That is autocracy. Vote them out!

BOVINO IS A BULLY

#Bovino is a loser, an insecure punk ass beeoch, just like #Trump, trying to be a big, tough man.

He attacks people b/c there are no consequences now. But Trump won’t be Pres. forever. 🥹

If #BorderPatrol wasn’t trash before, it is now.

Bovino: "Whether they were criminals or individuals that were taking jobs from Americans -- you name it, that's what they were doing. And I'll tell you what's gonna happen. We're gonna go even harder on the streets. If he releases those 650, we're gonna apprehend 1,650 on the streets of Chicago."

At risk of stating the obvious, the "economics mentor" highlight distracts from what he immediately says next.

He is going to "cut off contact."

Which is to say he is withdrawing professional support because she declined to fuck him.
The emails have Summers reporting to Epstein about his attempts to date a Harvard economics student & to hit on her during a seminar she was giving.

Trump killed it. Thanks to Republicans, Turbotax wins and you lose.

This relative advantage means that, even if they are relying on government programs like welfare or Medicaid, Trump supporters can see themselves as the "deserving" poor while disparaging others who are worse off than they are for being "lazy" and making "bad choices." 1/
Here's what I wish people understood: Trump supporters in poorer areas are generally the wealthy people in those areas -- the people who have kept their neighbors poor.
