I wonder if Brett Kavanaugh will rethink his cavalier attitude towards these things once he sees a white blonde woman can be targeted repeatedly as well?
“Traumatized, humiliated, degraded.”
The nurse, a US citizen, 4’11”, 85 lbs, says she was following orders when she was dragged out of her car by masked immigration agents in Florida.
It was the 3rd time she had been stopped and told to produce ID.

Cuellar was charged last year with bribery, money laundering and conspiracy. His wife, Imelda, also will receive a pardon, according to Trump.

We're watching the wholesale burning of every scrap of dignity afforded to trans people in the UK, their rights, their medical services, their employment, their place within society, their bodily functions.
It is a disgrace, and a disgusting stain on the government and media of this country.

Jeffries: "The border is secure. That's a good thing. It happened on his watch. He wants to claim credit for it, of course he'll get credit for that. In terms of making sure that we actually deal with the issues that matter, including on immigration, there's a lot that's left to be desired."

Do you notice how the catch all excuse for an entire generation of awful public figures who have behaved horrendously, whether left or right, is: “the kids have all gone crazy on social media”. Do you see how it is in fact the old farts who have roasted each other’s brains on Twitter and Facebook.

Recidivism rate is high among this particular group. Perhaps they feel entitled to continue with their criminal behaviour because this POTUS and his administration daily display an attitude that laws don’t apply to them.
A New Jersey fraudster who was pardoned by President Trump in 2021 was sentenced to 37 years in prison this month for running a $44 million Ponzi scheme, one of a growing number of people granted clemency by Trump only to be charged with new crimes.
