I'm surprised by the number of DM's I've gotten. I'm here to support Democracy and Dem's. I'm not looking for a gf, or investment opportunities. Unless there is something that you do not want everyone to see, avoid using DM's.

Gilchrist: Even if he had a goal that was in the interests of the people of Michigan, this is not the team I would trust to actually get it done.
They’re so incompetent that they made a deal they claim is supposed to help American manufacturing—but it literally hurts Michigan manufacturers.

The rule of law is all or nothing and must apply equally to everyone. If there's no rule of law for some people in America, then there's no rule of law for any of us.

None of the official ABC tweets or clips from the Trump interview tonight feature the most important clip of all: a demented Trump repeatedly and falsely claiming, and seeming bizarrely to believe, that Albrego Garcia literally had the letters and numbers MS13 on his knuckles.

I watched a bit of the 50th anniversary parade in Vietnam celebrating victory over the US. Not only was that war stupid for us to involve our country but I had a glimpse of some young people who had their lives ruined.

Most countries have forgiven Germany and Japan for the atrocities of WWll. One exception is China. They hate Japan/Japanese. Chinese kids are raised to hate the Japanese even though most Chinese have never met a Japanese person.

It’s interesting that secret service told reporters the guy who stole Noem’s purse what a white male, then they wait a week and DHS says it was an undocumented migrant but refuses to give any other details.

Given the literal definition of deportation is removing a foreigner or noncitizen from the country, we - journalists, media orgs - should probably all stop referring to the ‘deportation’ of a 2 year old US citizen. It’s NOT a deportation.
I’m not sure what it is. A kidnapping?
