I don't know why we still call them ICE and treat them as a legitimate organization. They are an armed Militia and should be designated as a terrorist group. No other legal force in America wears masks and strips people of due process. They are a terrorist organization

Hassett and the other Trump officials who roll out the "Walmart Thanksgiving Meal" cost argument *know* that it was debunked way before today. And yet, they repeat it, knowing that not every interviewer will be prepared to, or be willing to, shove the debunking in their faces.
KARL: The president claims that Thanksgiving costs are down 25%. Does he know that's not true?
HASSETT: Well if you look at Walmart--
KARL: Wait a minute. I've gotta stop you. The Walmart package this year contains much less than the one last year. That's why the price is less.
