It really pays to remind ourselves frequently that this whole immigration "crisis" is made up out of whole cloth. There was no emergency,danger or problem, only a demagogue stirring up racist grievances for political advantage.

So far it has been revealed that the WH Faith Director advisor is pushing group sales of Melania tickets to her email lists, a GOP Rep seeking Trump’s endorsement is buying them in bulk and giving them to primary voters, and military commanders are pressuring troops to buy tickets.

Trump’s racist video mocking the Obamas is an effort to divide and conquer. He’s better there are enough white supremacists out there who approve. We the people can unite against it and prove him wrong. Make America decent again.

The part that sticks with me is not even his racist post. It’s how fast so many people rush to protect him from responsibility. They told on themselves.
The benefit of the doubt appears instantly. The excuses appear instantly.
He never earns that grace. It just shows up on demand.

ICE is not going after the "worst of the worst." They're going after 5 year olds like Liam Ramos and DEAF TEENAGERS NOW.
Come on, REALLY?!?
Republicans have to pay the price for this bullshit in November. Vote them out of office, all those useless saps.

ICE violently detain a deaf teenager—accuse him of "not listening" to their orders.
"They thought I was stupid—but NO!" he told rally.
"They shrugged at me, they didn't care because I'm deaf."
Agents did not provide sign language interpreter—then denied him access to bathroom.

Surprised? No.
Distracted? Also no.
We know who Donald Trump is. He has proven himself time and time again. We will not be distracted — especially not from the fact that he is all up and through the Epstein files.

BREAKING: As the Super Bowl gets ready to kick off in Las Vegas, someone just protected this video onto a building there!
It’s the “P-do Bowl” featuring the men who are in the Epstein files the most.
Hint: Donald Trump, Howard Lutnick and Steve Bannon are the all-stars of this game.

My take from in the room. VP Vance was heckled by the crowd when he appeared on screen. But I want to point out that the same crowd was loud and supportive when Team USA came out. It was lovely to hear. And quite a juxtaposition.
