First they came for a clarinet player? This kind of action will surely encourage more people to attend No Kings on Saturday. I saw a list of foreign countries also holding them in solidarity.
“A clarinet player was arrested after playing her instrument to the tune of the ‘Ghostbusters’ theme song outside of a Portland ICE facility…”

Has anyone ever looked at TRUMP PARDONS? Michael Milken, Leon Black just a bunch of scumbags from the 80’s! I wonder how Trump ever got in a position of trust when you look at who & what he regularly partied with! How does a CHRISTO-FACIST like RUSSELL VOUGHT EVER GET MIXED UP WITH TRUMP?
To clarify
Biden confirmed he authorized use of the autopen, but trump wants to investigate the routine practice
Trump sees no reason to investigate child rape.
Side note: Nobody believes trump individually signed 1600 J6 pardons in one day. Seems like those pardons should be rescinded

Another unforgivable corporation caving to the dictator. Trump doesn't even read his daily Presidential briefings, and has only read his own (ghost-written) books and Mein Kampf have a library? Can you actually fill a library with Dick-and-Jane Readers and Trump bibles?
