Trump calls Somali immigrants “garbage.” His VP cheers him on. Meanwhile, families are being torn apart, asylum is being shut down, aid is being gutted, and the military is firing on survivors in the water.
Cruelty is becoming national policy—silence is complicity.

Trump’s Dehumanization Campaign Is Becoming Normalized
A president who calls immigrants “garbage” is dangerous enough. A country that grows desensitized to it is even more frightening.

Jasmine Crockett didn’t just launch a #Senate run — she lit a match under Trump’s fragile ego. The ad is sharp, fearless, and pure Texas energy. If the GOP wants to play insult politics, she’s showing up bilingual in that language. Texas hasn’t felt this electric in years. Sen. Crocket? Yeah!

SHARE NOW: Texas just got a whole lot louder. Jasmine Crockett is running for the United States Senate and Republicans should be terrified. She’s smart, fearless, relentless, and she doesn’t back down from anybody. This is the matchup Texas deserves. Let’s go.

Every real economist in America warned at the time he was imposing tariffs that it would affect each of these things, and deportations have affected the ability of farmers to access labor. This is all happening because of one man.

What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”
Funny how that works.

Trump rages that Henry Cuellar didn’t pay him back for a pardon by switching parties, blasting Cuellar for a “lack of LOYALTY.”
In other words, Trump admits he was trying to use his pardon power to buy Republicans a House seat.
