I can save Republicans a lot of time here-you don’t need to persuade us that Abrego Garcia is a “bad guy.” We don’t care.
Our constitution doesn’t say we get to disappear ppl just bc we don’t like what they’ve done.
If it did, none of the Trump Administration would still be here.

Graphic artist Rebecca Burke was on the trip of a lifetime. But as she tried to leave the US she was stopped, interrogated and branded an illegal alien by ICE. Now back home, she tells others thinking of going to Trump’s America: don’t do it.

I'm just your average old guy. Today I was looking over my latest benefits statement from Medicare. I found thousands of dollars of fraudulant claims that were filed in my name. Called and reported it. Might be worth you checking yours regularly if you're over 65.

Dear Candians booing the US national anthem:

We didn't vote for this, we don't want this. We despise MAGA & what they stand for, what they're doing to us & the world.
