Think of all potentially great ICE agents we have lost in the USA just in the past year, due to some states being non-negotiable on execution of murderers. 😱

OMG. I don't easily laugh out loud at clips and normal silliness, but this is special! And the ending is outstanding! 🤣🤣🤣
Oh, dear. 🫢

St. Paul’s new mayor, Mayor Kaohly Her, came to America at age 4. “Her father worked for the U.S. consulate, her uncle was employed by USAID, and her grandfather fought alongside the U.S. Army and the CIA in the Laotian Civil War before resettling in the United States.” ♥️
JUST IN: Kaohly Her has been sworn in as St. Paul's first woman, and Hmong-American mayor.

The harder that “Christian” fanatics push to establish a radical religious USA, the more irrelevant Christianity becomes. They are heading back to its roots as just another Middle Eastern-born religious terrorist organization.

POTUS is a convicted felon and was indicted for abusing power to overthrow a legal election, and we have Supreme Court justices who openly accept lavish gifts from people with interests before the court and its really weird to me that most people are…at most casually annoyed? And mostly w/ inflation

Commercial TV coverage of the Rose Parade continued its pathetic downward spiral. NBC/ABC vied for terrible snippets of coverage overrun with constant commercials, with ABC taking the prize. Egos & meaningless “entertainment” taking precedence over actual parade coverage. No mas!

It's just "distractions", folks...nothing to see here, just a couple of our star people playing with their women. Can't distract from that big important man's game, where doped up men in tights slap each other on the ass to practice before thumping on more women.

Shame on you @ABC. Trump illegally changed the name. He didn’t have the authority to change the name. So it’s not real. Just like the Department of War isn’t real. Fuck you ABC for being such cowards.

Trump posted a photo claiming it shows a bald eagle in the United States killed by a windmill.

In reality, the image is of a dead falcon in Israel from 2017.

Good points in the article. In agreeing with its summary, other nations/leaders/oligarchs aren't "negotiating" or otherwise interacting with Trump, they are simply pandering to his infantile narcissistic demands...give him a sucker, change his diaper, & he thinks he rules the world. Infantile. Fool.

Pelosi: “The President incited an insurrection. We begged him to send the National Guard, they never sent them. This President is trying to re-write history… it was an assault on the constitution of 🇺🇸.”

If Marjorie Taylor Greene *really* cared about the Epstein victims, she would read the names of the perpetrators on the House floor (where she would have immunity) before she leaves office.

Well said.
The loss of CBS News is devastating - the pantheon of journalistic integrity just gone. Poof. In like an instant.
CBS Sunday Morning, 60 Minutes, & Face the Nation are now all moving right. It is massively sad & tragic.

MTG claiming she was "so naive" about trump would be laughable if not so disgusting. She's one of the most devious, opportunistic, unethical politicians imaginable, now playing the poor victim & the hero of the common people. This isn't some innocent waif, she's planning "post-trump" fanaticism.

Read this with a totally jaundiced eye...it is a total kiss-up piece for Greene. Read closely, you will find numerous instances of her admitting she has lost none of her horrendous & disgusting rightwing "beliefs". @nytimes.com helps her retain influence ad nauseum.
