I’m Probably About to Be Banned From CNN — But Someone Has to Say This About Scott Jennings
There are times when you need to tell your friends that they are committing a grave mistake, even if they resent you for telling the truth.

I’ve seen a lot going around about these cells reserved for US citizens, and it’s worth reminding people that ICE officers (and immigration officers in general) do in fact have legal authority to arrest US citizens for any felonies or “offenses against the United States” witnessed by an officer.
Missed this a few days ago:
Two U.S. citizens grabbed by ICE say there were cells reserved for Americans.
Also, they weren’t given medical attention or allowed to go to the bathroom.

This isn’t immigration policy. It’s a business model.
ICE keeps growing, not because it makes America safer, but because corporations are raking in billions off cages, bodies, and suffering. ICE’s existence is a massive revenue stream.

There is no question that this is a great song, but I'm surprised that a song about interracial prostitution was so popular in the 1940s.

Kristi Noem has been a complete and total failure at her job. She has violated her oath and has allowed ICE agents to terrorize our communities.
That’s why I’m joining @robinkelly.house.gov in calling for her impeachment.
We deserve better, she’s gotta go.

Aha…so 8647 is such a good idea.
So, just typing the numbers 8647 gets my message moderated and sent to the bottom but putting those same numbers in between words doesn't get moderated.
Please kindly remove the words "Testing this is just a test" from your mind.

I remember Jerome Powell humiliating Trump in front of the whole world.
Trump hates it when he can't control certain people.
