vance really does stand out for his absolute contempt for anything that looks like forbearance and generosity. his immediate instinct is always to demagogue and issue calumnies against his fellow americans.
JD Vance: "What we know is that in Dallas, Texas, an ICE facility was opened fire open by a violent left-wing extremist, a person who wrote anti-ICE messaging on their ballots. These's some evidence we have that's not yet public."

I have no idea who shot at the ICE facility or why, & hard to trust this FBI director. Murder is always inexcusable.

Now, the idea that people are mad at ICE because of ‘Democrats’ rhetoric’ & not because of daily videos of masked ICE agents assaulting people, including citizens, is for the birds.

I am bewildered by people who want to stop members of Congress from trading stocks but turn a blind eye to the massive grifting by the Trump family. If this is you, go to ChatGTP and query "In what ways has Donald Trump enriched himself by his association with the presidency?"

Children's hospital chaplain Ayman Soliman, whose detention sparked a community uproar and became a test of counterterrorism powers in immigration court, was released from an Ohio jail Friday as DHS abruptly withdrew its case against him.

“This is beyond my dreams,” he told ProPublica.

New reporting shows that Tom Homan was under internal investigation after accepting $50,000 in cash from the FBI last year.

The case was then dropped after Trump assumed office.

The journalism inside baseball here is what an amazing hire Carol Leonnig has been for MSNBC (part of the mass exodus from the Washington Post)
“On Sept. 20, with hidden cameras recording the scene, Homan accepted $50,000 in bills, according to an internal summary of the case.”

Homan was being investigated for allegedly “soliciting payments in exchange for awarding contracts should Trump win the election”

Tom Homan was investigated for accepting $50,000 from undercover FBI agents. Trump's DOJ shut it down.
The FBI and Justice officials closed the investigation, which a Justice Department appointee had called a “deep state” probe in early 2025.

What’s more astonishing: 1) that the president clearly believes, and repeatedly suggests, that asylum seekers are people from mental asylums, or 2) that no journalist has ever challenged him on this and no mainstream media outlets have done any deep dives on this story?

It’s not a question of whether you agree with Jimmy Kimmel.

When someone uses their government position to threaten speech they don't like, that undermines the First Amendment and our entire democracy.

Everyone should care about this—no matter what your political view is.
