Out of the rack and ruin of our gangster death
The rape and rot of graft and stealth and lies
We the people must redeem
The land the mines the plants the rivers
The mountains and the endless plain
All, all the stretch of these great green states

Also note: This is at least the THIRD major turf battle that Lewandowski has fought with Trump, going back to the time Roger Stone ousted him in 2016 to make way for the Russian operation.
Genuinely interesting. Kristi Noem is snitching that Stephen Miller is the one who made up the bullshit about Alex Pretti.
It would be genuinely useful if Congress can get her to admit that he has been dictating ALL OF THIS just like he dictated the murderboats.

You can’t just say “Abolish ICE”. You also have to say “Abolish ICE and throw every person working in the agency into federal prison for crimes against humanity”.

Let America Be America Again
I am the poor white, fooled and pushed apart,
I am the Negro bearing slavery’s scars.
I am the red man driven from the land,
I am the immigrant clutching the hope I seek
And finding only the same old stupid plan
Of dog eat dog, of mighty crush the weak

BREAKING: Maureen Riordan, whose DOJ appointment signaled an anti-voting shift through her alignment with election deniers, has left the department.
Her departure marks the loss of one of the voting section's most veteran lawyers, leaving it in the hands of new hires with ties to radical figures.
