Trump pardoned Henry Cuellar who "allegedly had taken hundreds of thousands of dollars in bribes from the government of Azerbaijan and a Mexico-based bank in exchange for promises to work to shift US policy."

This would be, without any doubt, a war crime committed by the United States. We prosecuted Germans and Japanese for doing this exact thing in WWII.

Tariffs are not just hitting Americans — but American small businesses that can’t pick up the phone and get an exemption.

That is crony capitalism. That is what the Trump Administration has brought.

I know: he’s a racist authoritarian who’s running a militantly racist government constantly doing and saying racist things, carrying out a highly militarized campaign of ethnic cleansing and also doing anti diversity crackdown all over the place. And yet…his racist rhetoric IS getting worse, somehow
Trump: "It’s a hellhole right now. And those Somalians should be out of here. They've destroyed our country. And all they do is complain, complain, complain. You have her. She’s always talking about the Constitution provides me with – go back to your own country and figure out your constitution."

Why is House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries lying on Donald Trump's behalf?

The US-Mexico border was not insecure last year and secure this year. That is not true.
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."
