Does this bother anyone else? Rounding up people without evidence and shipping them off to a torture prison is NOT a tool in Trump's toolbox. Where are the advocates?

El Salvadore? Libya? Rawanda? All human trafficking ports. Connect the dots!!

Libya has one of the highest human trafficking rates in the world. WHY would the US want to send people there?????

I can't watch T talking around the Canadian PM like the man isn't sitting right next to him. T has no social skills. And someone tell Vance to close his legs and sit like a civilized man.

I received a nice certificate of recogition from Riverside County(CA) for some of my volunteer work. I'm ready to spread out and help stop the further erosion of our nation. Grassroots efforts all over the land can save the day. Volunteer wherever you are and however you can!

Finally! A CA judge is standing up to out Border Patrol. In summary:

‘You just can’t walk up to people with brown skin and say give me your papers,’ a federal judge told Border Patrol attorneys at a hearing challenging recent immigration sweeps.

I'd love to hear the "Trailer Park Boys" take on Trump wanting Canada to be the US' 51st state.

Watching LGBTQ conservatives grooving to the iconic gay anthem "Y.M.C.A." today at the Michigan Lie-Fest cracked me up. Yes, I know the song long ago transcended that stop on its way to cultural award-winning brilliance, but it still makes me giggle.

A seemingly innocuous NJ man (judging by his profile) just posted on FB that the Rio Grande needs hundreds of alligators swarming in it so no one would try crossing it...and 2.6k people agreed with him.

It amazes me how few people truly understand why people make the hazardous trip to the border.

Who else thinks Mr T wore a bright blue suit to the Pope's service so he would stand out againt all other world leaders?

Is it my imagination or does T look unwell of late? Sallow, sagging skin, hollow eyes - aged terribly in these first few months.

So ICE shows up and tells US citizens they must leave the country regardless of citizenship. WHERE are they supposed to go?? What happens to their personal property? Homes? Cars? Pets? Are they still required to pay taxes? What about their retirement savings? What if they are disabled?

My parrot friend and I enjoying this gorgeous SoCal day. Don't tell ice that he flew over the border without a Visa decades ago, was found injured in our yard and I've been harboring him 17 wonderful years.

If the Trump administration says they can't get El Salvadore as a sovereign nation to release people wrongly incarcerated but they can somehow take over the Panama Canal and Greenland, what does that say about this administration?
April 15, 2025 at 9:35 AM
How is this supposed to work? You cannot apply for amnesty unless you're in this country. People here long-term are already in the system.

I continue to search for the USA of my previous life ... it is not to be found. I doubt many of "his" supporters are on board with his global expansion.

The new portrait of Trump is kind of gross. Up close it really looks like he popped one of those Hollywood fake blood vials on his ear.
