This should not be shrugged aside. They have stopped with the fake 22 million illegal immigrants things and are flat out saying we want to deport 10's of millions of citizens and legal residents from "third world countries" Basically they are advocating removing 1/3 of the population on a gov site.

A joint investigation by ProPublica and FRONTLINE identified more than two dozen cases of immigration agents using "less lethal" weapons in ways that appear to flout the government's own rules, including by aiming at someone’s head, spine or groin or deploying chemical agents near children.

Because the defacement of the Kennedy Center and the financial hit that performers are suffering are both very sad.
But Richard Grennell’s temper tantrums are very, very funny.

Since Charlie Kirk died, every aspect, every word, every move, every moment of Erika Kirk's public "grieving" has been highly staged to manipulate!

While Erika Kirk continues to appear in public, I need to acknowledge, widow to widow, there is a form of strength in her control and in the way she maintains composure under scrutiny. But true strength is not for an audience. True courage lives in private spaces no one sees.

#Ukrainians do not need to be persuaded that peace is needed. Ukrainians want peace more than anyone else, because war is our daily reality.
A lasting peace and a ceasefire depend on Russia, which started this war and continues to wage it.
