What was that line from Shakespeare?

“This, your mountainish inhumanity.”
“I don’t want to be in this place I want to go to my school.”

Today, after @propublica.org published this story, the camp was raided to confiscate letters from the children.

I swear can we forego the fruitcake candidates like Andrew Yang or Maryanne Williamson or this idiot in 2028 and just have a primary with 6-8 serious, experienced individuals.
Stephen A. Smith: "We wouldn’t have a border crisis under my watch."

"We ain’t defunding any police… There’s gonna be more."

I’m still old enough to remember Republicans wearing Purple Heart bandaids at their own convention because they know they can treat service members and veterans like shit and face no blowback.

Trying to imagine doing this for my composition.

“American culture, with its Italian-Polish-Ukrainian origin, proud keeper of the pizza bagel, is great and worth fighting for.”
"American culture, with its English-Scotts-Irish origin, is great and worth fighting for."

Nah it’ll happen on camera. He’ll go out putting on a show.
I just realized that when it finally happens we'll probably find out first through a bunch of insider trades on betting markets

At 34 I found out I had Crohn’s from a free colonoscopy I got in the army because the army is socialist and socialism keeps our troops alive.
Chadwick Boseman and James van der Beek both died in their 40s of an illness that's treatable if a colonoscopy catches it but almost no insurer covers them for people under 45, this is what Engels meant by "social murder"

I checked every state where Trump is at 50% or under and a Republican incumbent is up in the senate.

There’s 12. Dems need six to retake the majority.

The random ICE dude in the cowboy hat just there to emphasize how much they really are an invading force.
Minnesota is still under attack.

Federal thugs swarmed Roosevelt High School in Minneapolis. Witnesses report tear gas used on students and staff. At least two school employees were handcuffed. Video evidence is circulating. DHS is denying it happened 🤬

Schools should be safe havens!
