Ah. So if you don’t count all the jobs lost, the jobs numbers look pretty good.
Hassett: "When you look at jobs numbers & see they're below 100, the below 100 thing isn't as disturbing as in the past bc a lot of it is reduced govt employment & we're deporting illegals. If you account for that, the expected jobs number for a strong month is a lot closer to what we're seeing."

If you beat up and injure a cop at the Capitol the Trump admin will pardon you.

If you drive away from an ICE agent they will kill you.

The White House maligned Renee Good and brazenly lied about what actually happened. We need hearings and a full investigation now.

Renee Good was murdered in broad daylight, and Republicans are acting as if it is ok. Where is your decency? Where is your humanity? When will y’all develop a backbone and actually represent the people that sent you here?

For months, the United States has had heavily armed, masked government militias roaming our streets abusing basic constitutional/human rights and terrorizing immigrants & American citizens alike.

This just should not be happening in this country. No fucking way.

I'm blown away. In the first 48 hours, more than 37,000 people helped us raise over $1 million.

People know the stakes of this moment, and I'm so grateful to everyone who has chipped in to help us fight against Trump and for New Yorkers.

Thank you. Let’s keep going.

In Donald Trump’s America — beating law enforcement with flag poles gets you pardoned, but attempting to drive away from law enforcement gets you punished by death.

Isn’t the ICE action in Minneapolis exactly the type of government hostility that the right wing militias use to justify their existence?
And yet….silence.

Thank God there is video and we don’t have only Kristi Noem’s lies about this - which she likely got from the agents’ supervisor. If there were no videos, as is the case with many criminal incidents, just imagine how big the lies get.

I don't often agree with Donald Trump.

But this time he is absolutely, positively 💯 percent correct.
