I’m not suggesting anything creepy about the way Trump runs his press conferences… But all I know is this young blonde in the tight black shirt has been allowed to ask five questions during the 15 minutes I’ve been watching.

If you ever had any doubt that rightwing media is just official state propaganda at this point, consider that Charlie Kirk was replaced on his show by the sitting Republican vice president who ‘interviewed’ White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller.

“ if the president wants to see low crime, I invite him to come to Maryland. We have great food. He should come and have a meal“

This is bullshit politics as usual. This is old. This is only a strategy when there are two functioning, normal parties

Harvard can't use someone's race to decide if they are going to be a student, but ICE can use a student's race to decide if they are going to detain/incarcerate them.
According to the Supreme Court, race can only be a factor if you want hurt, not help, someone.
