If Congress follows Trump's directive to rename the Defense Department, it could cost taxpayers nearly $2B in new signage, letterheads, and digital code.

Imagine if we invested that money — and our bloated military budget as well — on the American people instead of the Pentagon.

ICE IS on their way out of Chicago. Apparently we are too much work for them and they don't like the whistle patrols and community involvement. What has been done here is a blueprint for other places now.
Ice was required by a Judge to release over 600 individuals who were in Broadville.

The wealth gap continues to grow substantially in this country. That's why, among other measures, I support the Tax Excessive CEO Pay Act.

CEOs don't work 300, 400, or 500 times harder than their average worker. Why should they be compensated as if they do? Pay workers their fair share.

Former first lady Michelle Obama said the U.S. has “a lot of growing up to do” to be ready for a female president.

“There’s still, sadly, a lot of men who do not feel like they can be led by a woman. And we saw it,” Obama said. https://wapo.st/48kepjO

I feel like 99% of the shit we are going through is because Dems have let GOP off the hook for criminal behavior since Nixon. We needed piranha as AG. I know a lot got mired in the courts by partisan judges, &maybe I'm talking out of my ass, but it's frustrating to see criminals back in power.

The Trump regime has fired an estimated 70 immigration judges since February. This is happening as immigration courts face a record backlog of cases.

Remember: it was never about legal immigration. It was always about cruelty.
