I tell you, one dude who should be fired, but won't, is Brian Kilmeade. Here's how he would solve the homeless problem - "involuntary lethal injection, just kill them." That's not hyperbole, that is a direct quote. @foxnews.com.web.brid.gy

So a Trump-leaning Christian Nationalist develops a hit list of Democratic politicians, begins an assassination spree, Trump insults the victims, the media covers it for a few days, and then we sweep it all under the rug and move on? I don't recognize my country anymore.

Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. She’s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

Today is the anniversary of D-Day, a day when thousands of people put their lives on the line to free Europe from fascism. Next Saturday, just show up at a protest. You don't have to be brave. You will have fun, you will be inspired, and it will only take a couple of hours. Just do something. #trump
