I’m still thinking about “quiet, piggy.” No president should be able to speak to a member of the press that way and remain president. That moment encapsulates how vile, misogynistic, and horrible that man is.

Really? “Charlotte’s Web”?! Ugh. ICE is very antithesis of that gentle book’s message of love, kindness and being a good friend.

If I were to defy a court order, I'd be in jail, not building a ballroom.

Okay, so I did it. In honor of Sandwich Guy, on what should be the last day of his trial, I figured out the chords. And so, with apologies to the late and great Bob Marley, I banged out this quick and (very) rough rendition of "I Threw the Sandwich." 🤣

I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this video.
I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children.
But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.

Good. Why does the GOP want backroom secret questioning? What are Republicans afraid of?
Let the American people see & hear for themselves!
