it's good that people who work for ICE are being ostracized by their communities and confronted at their churches. that's actually what living in a society is

Trump posted this without knowing Nick Reiner had been arrested. He posted it apparently assuming that one of his fans had murdered Rob Reiner. So if you want to know how Trump will react once his fans start murdering his enemies, now you know. He'll celebrate and blame his enemies.

Across America, people are posting that this message by Donald Trump is one of the most contemptible and grotesque ever made by a public figure.

And I am telling you that it is significantly worse than you think it is.

This was a preemptive justification for what Trump presumed was a MAGA murder.

Just to get ahead of this: Print the post out and bring it to the next Mike Johnson presser. You already know what his move will be. There’s no excuse to not be prepared for it.

Which is more likely, Eric? That Harvard suddenly became more moderate just when you arrived to teach a seminar, as you seem to claim, or that it was never the radical right-bashing bastion you believed it was because you were woefully misinformed?

Looking through Rob Reiner’s otherwise amazing filmography, I found this unintentionally funny line.

Rob Reiner: I'm going to make a coming of age drama, a fantasy adventure story, a romantic comedy, a psychological horror and then a courtroom drama.

Us: Across your entire career?

Reiner: In a 6 year period.

Us: That sounds-

Reiner: -Each one will be arguably the best movie in that genre.

It is almost always a lot less costly to oppose an aggressor as soon as possible, than to appease an aggressor and hope that'll be the end of it.

There hasn’t been enough appreciation for how thoroughly BENNIE THOMPSON humiliated FBI official GLASHEEN after he tried to sell the lie that ANTIFA is the top domestic terror threat.

The claim collapsed because it’s a cover.

This is appalling. Again, Trump and ICE have had the option to deport Abrego Garcia to Costa Rica for weeks and weeks. They won't explain why they refuse to do this. But we know why: Because they've decided it isn't dehumanizing or cruel enough.

Sen. Jack Reed: "I must remind everyone that we follow the law of war, and because of that, we expect other countries. So that when our service members are in distress, they're not shot up in the water or if they're wounded, left to die. If we don't do it, then we can't expect other countries."
