🚨🚨The White House is pissed off about this ad so you know what to do, share it everywhere! ICE is disappearing people just because of the color of their skin! No Warrant! No Due Process! This is not who we are as Americans! #MAGAKidnappers want an all white America, fuck that‼️

And another follow-up. Doesn't AF1 have lots of top secret electronics and counter electronics on it? It would have to be retro-fitted for AF1, then, re retro-fitted for the "libraries use. All done on the taxpayer's dime.

...and as a follow-up. Was said plane screened for bugging devices or was it accepted with a shrug and a thanks?

WELKER: Your secretary of state says everyone who's here, citizens and non-citizens, deserve due process. Do you agree? TRUMP: I don't know. I'm not a lawyer. I don't know. WELKER: Don't you need to uphold the Constitution? TRUMP: I don't know

Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R): "We are all afraid…I am oftentimes very anxious myself about using my voice because retaliation is real."

Why seeing trade deficits as a problem is silly. We buy $150B of stuff from Vietnam and they buy $10B from US. Taxing ourselves 50% on Vietnamese goods doesn’t make them buy more things from us. We will simply buy less from them and pay huge taxes on what we do buy. It’s so fucking stupid.

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source. Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

Bubbling up some loose ends: 1) Have we moved on from wanting to find the January 5th pipe bomber? 2) What’s Space Force up to? 3) It doesn’t seem like we’re hearing from the usual loudmouths as often: Green, Jordan, Bobert, Rand, etc. Anyway care to guess why that is?

As governor of Illinois, I’ve made it my mission to make our state the best to call home including for our LGBTQ+ community. No matter who you are or who you love, everyone deserves dignity and equality. Hate has no home here.

Has anyone seen an update on what the hell is happening with the Department of Education? I’ve only seen this morning’s footage, but can’t find any actual news stories about it. This one hits close to home for me…

Trump’s trade wars are going to reduce homebuilding and raise prices, the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) says in a letter they sent to Donald Trump: “We respectfully ask that you consider the effects of tariffs…that you exempt critical construction materials from such actions.”

Trumpsters often say, “Politicians don’t keep it real or say what’s on their mind, but Trump does,” and that’s what they like about him. MAGA, please meet Anders Vistisen of Denmark… About Greenland: “Mr. Trump, f*ck off, It’s not for sale.”
