Trump turns tariffs on and off like a toddler with a light switch. Seattle dockworkers are on the frontlines facing the very real consequences of Trump’s reckless and unpredictable trade policies.

Vote them out.
This is insane
DHS spending bill passed 220-207
7 Democrats voted in favor:
Henry Cuellar
Don Davis
Laura Gilles
Marie Gluesenkamp Perez
Jared Golden
Vicente Gonzalez
Tom Suozzi
Massie voted No
Andy Harris didn't vote
Might not have passed if every Democrat voted No, but leadership wasn't whipping them to do so

Softer tone my ass. More politics from Vance.
"Most of the conflict and consternation, he suggested, resulted from misunderstandings that could be solved if only local elected officials — and their police departments — would work with the federal government."

This is not a new phenomenon. In the 1930s, our government (federal, state, and local) deported as many as 2 million people to Mexico. About 40-60 percent were actually American citizens. A family member would be detained, placed on a bus in a public place as bait for the rest of the family.

Tell that to the families of 850 soldiers from 19 non-US NATO countries who died fighting to defend the United States in Afghanistan - the only occasion Article 5 was ever triggered.

This is not a rational person. And this is deeply disturbing coming from an American President. NATO is not our enemy—they are unequivocally our closest friends and allies.
At this point, how can you not call into question the mental fitness of this President?

This is not a serious operation to enforce immigration law. It’s a performative show of force and it’s gotten way out of hand.
