Reminded of Roger A Freeman (advisor to Reagan). During a press conference on October 29th 1970, he stated "We are in danger of producing an educated proletariat", adding "We have to be selective on who we allow to go through [higher education]".

Folks, saying ABOLISH ICE isn't hard. Quite easy. The water is warm here. Jump in. Mainstream it. People will follow.

ICE is running around Chicago harassing people for not being white.

Just a year ago, that was illegal in the United States and now it’s commonplace.

That’s not making America great again.

Is the Wild Card round an enjoyable 2-3 days of television? You bet your sweet bippy.

I don’t know this general, but his thousand yard stare is ALL of us since this Regime began. Imagine having to sit through Trump floating using the military on Americans & his Secretary of “War” ranting about fat soldiers & grooming. It gave seriously awkward SNL skit vibes. 😳

True!!
People who have seats right behind the plate and never look up from their phone should be dragged out of the ballpark and banned for life.

Charlie Kirk called me a ‘lunatic’ and a ‘prostitute’ and demanded I be deported.

Nothing, *nothing*, justifies killing him, or robbing his kids of their dad.

We don’t know the identity or motive of the shooter but murder can *never* be the response to political disagreements.

The boat full of civilians Donald Trump mass murdered in the Caribbean had already turned around by the time the US decided to kill them.

The moment Trump took office Russia increased its attacks on civilians in Ukraine. The Kremlin has the US president in their pocket and have by all intents and purposes captured the White House.
