The media has to stop using 'crackdown' to describe what ICE and CBP are doing in Minneapolis.

'Crackdown' implies a response to wrongdoing. There is no wrongdoing. People are just existing.

On his trip to MN yesterday, Vance said DHS wasn’t targeting people based on race.

Not only is that false, remember, this Admin took a case to SCOTUS specifically arguing they should be allowed to do that.

Trump’s SCOTUS ruled in their favor.

Don't be fooled by their lies.

The Minnesota strike has made it to the top story on NYT. I am not a knee jerk NYT hater, but imo this is noteworthy given the paper’s relative lack of interest in other recent anti-Trump protest activity

Reminder: Marco Rubio's nascent political career in Florida somehow survived his lying about when his family came over from Cuba (it was not after Castro's takeover but three years before). And now here he is, doing something that would probably gladden Castro.

I used to call all Tom Cruise movies "The Littlest (x)," like The Last Samurai became the Littlest Samurai, Far and Away became the Littlest Immigrant and Valkyrie became The Littlest Nazi. But I'm willing to cede the last nickname to Greg Bovino.

In light of Vance's birth announcement and accession to the racist vision of Europe he espouses on behalf of his foreign policy mentor Viktor Orban, a brief reminder of how much he's willing to do to abase himself.

Whatever is in the Epstein Files is so explosive that the leaders of the Department of Justice are openly breaking the law every day to keep us from seeing it. (Just a reminder amongst all the other stuff flying around.)

Wow I can't believe Obama did us like that, letting his subsidies expire and preventing Republicans from addressing the issue. The lesson is: never elect somebody who promises something that improves people's lives and delivers, go for the fraudsters hell bent on destruction.

Tapping retirement savings. Researching a move to a different country. Dropping health insurance altogether. These are the stories of Americans who are struggling to pay rising health care premiums after Obamacare subsidies expired.
