NO UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANT HAS EVER RECEIVED ANY BENEFITS FROM ANY FEDERAL PROGRAMS, NOR CAN THE DEMOCRATS CHANGE THE LAWS THAT FORBID SUCH DISBURSEMENTS! THE REPUBLICANS ARE LYING TO ALL OF US, BECAUSE THEY THINK WE ARE ALL TOO STUPID TO FIGURE OUT THE LIES!

Look, I’m not “glad” he’s dead by any means, but I do see the irony in his death by shooting given where he aligned.

I’m not participating in the celebration because I think trading one scumbag’s life for the tidal wave of extremism that’s going to follow is a bad trade.

And it will follow 😬✊💙

Just thought I'd mention this and hope jerks like Joe Scarborough, who thinks Chicago is worse for murders than Kiev, might see it.
Chicago sees its fewest summer murders since 1965, even as Trump cites high crime
The Chicago Police Department’s criminal homicide tally for June, July and August is the lowest in 60 years. And overall violent crime remains near its lowest point in more than four decades.

I LOVE Colbert unleashed! My question is who is the first to go, Colbert by May, or Trump? What's the Vegas Line on that?

Trump saying he has the best poll numbers he’s ever had citing “Harry Emden” on CNN

Harry Enten response: If we are comparing him to other presidents at this point in their presidencies, he is the second lowest on record compared only to himself.

EPSTEIN-Trump is playing games. He’s seeking disclosure of grand jury material but that requires court approval which the law is VERY hard to satisfy. But the government TODAY can disclose all the other investigative material on its own without court approval. Why isn’t it doing that?

I've seen bigger turnouts for Possum Day parades than the one for Taco's birthday.

I saw Taco laughing about No King's Day, saying he is not a king. He's the same guy who will have a birthday parade on the same day, costing $50M of OUR MONEY, and forbidding protests for it. He has disobeyed the Constitution every day while in office. He's a fucking dictator and everyone knows it.

So how does one keep a Boeing 747-8 jumbo jet, a 400 million dollar luxury private jet, in a library? Will it just become a white elephant in 2029, sitting in a parking lot collecting dust forever? Will there just be tours inside the beast? What am I missing here?

This guy, a J6er who lost his bid for a U.S. House seat in West Virginia of all places, is a total idiot.

...As is anyone who believes that products in the U.S. aren't impacted by tariffs either directly or after companies hike their prices because they no longer have more affordable competitors.

I've been around for a while, but I have never seen a time where ONE SINGLE POLL has caused so much angst among the Dem constituents. Apparently many feel because of this poll, the country is completely doomed to Democrat incompetence, and it's time to flee the US. It's a POLL, PEOPLE! Come on!
