If they’re going to name a NY landmark after Trump, how about the Newtown Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant, the largest sewage treatment facility in NYC, in Brooklyn?

As for the D.C. area: Perhaps the Fort Totten Solid Waste Disposal facility, in northeast D.C.?

ICE isn’t out of Minnesota. Enforcement hasn’t stopped; in many places it’s intensified. What changed wasn’t the raids, it was the coverage. As pressure grew, cameras shifted and Democrats redirected the conversation. But ICE activity in Minnesota is still very real & ongoing. #FuckICE #AbolishICE

Primary elections are when you're right to be picky and have a candidate "earn" your vote by their policies, history, stances.

General elections are for voting to keep the barbarians out.

Don't believe that, think of 2016 and 2024.

Kick the barbarians out!

Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York is taking a larger role in Democratic politics, supporting moderate candidates and helping drive the party’s economic message. Her heightened prominence comes as insiders begin to whisper more loudly about what she might do in 2028.

By the way, for those of you not in MN: Homan’s strategy was to withdraw some agents, so it felt like we were in the denouement of the crisis, and then escalate hard against observers. They’re being incredibly aggressive with observers now. National media may not want to check out just yet

NEW: A federal judge in Oregon issued a sweeping rebuke of the Justice Department’s nationwide push to seize state voter rolls, ruling that the department can no longer be presumed to be acting in good faith and warning that its conduct threatens voters and states’ rights.
Federal judge rules DOJ can ‘no longer’ be trusted in voter roll crusade
The judge pointed to a letter from Bondi to Minnesota that tied federal immigration enforcement to demands for voter data as the smoking gun.

It will likely take decades to clean up the poisonous stain of Donald Trump, but the repugnant memory of his ugly regime will never go away.

Trump posts racist video about the Obamas.

Karoline Leavitt dismisses criticism as "fake outrage."

Tim Scott calls it "the most racist thing I've seen out of this White House."

Donald Trump is withholding billions of dollars in New York infrastructure unless he gets Penn Station and Dulles Airport named after him.

This is not only brazenly corrupt. It is sick, twisted and egomaniacal. The time is long overdue for sane Republicans to stand up to Trump.

Dear Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt:

You may not be aware of this, but it actually matters to the American public whether Donald Trump (1) has the intellect and temperament of a five-year old, (b) is a racist cretin, or (c) as seems most likely, both.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

What is the narrative exactly ? A white house staffer who has unfettered access to the president’s account with no safeguards was casually watching videos in which the obamas are portrayed as apes, and then accidentally hit post?
POLITICO reporting that the White House has now claimed the ape video was an accident and removed it.

The vile video is racist. Period. And it came from a racist White House. If you can't say that, what are we doing here.

So, first of all, of course it was Trump.

But even if they were telling the truth, "We give staffers who post videos of the Obamas as apes access to the agenda-setting, decree-sending, market-moving account of the president of the United States" is not the exculpatory statement they think it is.

Trump reposting a video of the Obamas as "apes" during Black History Month and no Republican officials as of yet condemning him is another reason why every one of them needs to be defeated at the ballot box and shunned in public.
