I’ll never forget hearing Donald Trump’s racist “shithole countries” comment in a 2018 Oval Office meeting about immigration.

Tom Cotton and David Perdue claimed Trump didn’t say it and accused me of lying.

The truth comes out.
TRUMP: “I said why is it we only take people from shithole countries? Why can't we have some people from Norway, Sweden, Denmark… But we always take people from Somalia— places that are filthy, dirty, disgusting.”

Such a mystery what he means when he says this stuff, isn’t it?

Q: Are you concerned that if the proposal to review 5 years of social media to get a tourist visa is implemented that there will be a decline in tourism?

TRUMP: No. We're doing so well. We want to make sure we're not letting the wrong people into our country.

I hope people understand that if Trump gets his way America will soon be part of the global axis of evil if we aren't already. You see it in the Caribbean, you see it in Ukraine, and you see it with Trump trying to buddy up to Xi. We are a malevolent force.

In spirit, content and intent, this was really no different to a Klan rally.

The exception being the wholesale absence of outrage in mainstream media.

This period of history will be an indictment on those standing silent, as much as the monster himself.
Trump: "Ilhan Omar, whatever the hell her name is. With her little turban. I love her. She comes in, does nothing but bitch ... we ought to get her the hell out ... she's here illegally."

The crowd in Pennsylvania then starts chanting "send her back!"

NYT: “Behind that policy was a quieter goal: to ensure survivors did not end up in the judicial system, forcing them to show evidence justifying Trump’s military campaign.” 🧐https://www.nytimes.com/2025/12/09/us/politics/pentagon-boat-strike-survivors.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share

The monopolies of the Gilded Age led Congress to establish the FTC as an independent agency.

Its independence is meant to insulate it from political pressure so it can check corporate power and protect the American people.

Trump wanting to upend this is very telling.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court’s Republican-appointed majority appears poised to boost Trump’s pursuit of total government control, potentially destroying a key limit on his power over independent agencies Congress intended to be shielded from direct executive influence.

The Supreme Court is completely compromised with right-wing hacks who have been groomed by billionaires and white Christian nationalists.

It's time for fighters to emerge and embrace accountability, reform and EXPANDING THE COURT.

Make the Court fear the people.
