"Immigrant populations commit crimes at lower rates than native-born populations, so if this is actually about crime, how do you answer for that?"
Katie Zacharia: "You are lumping in illegal immigrants and regular immigrants."

Because of Trump's “Big Beautiful Bill,” the annual ICE budget — at $28 billion — is now larger than the annual budgets of the FBI, DEA, ATF, U.S. Marshals Service and the Bureau of Prisons COMBINED.
No. The American people do not want Trump's domestic army.

Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.

The Vice President of the U.S. just defamed Renee Good, calling her brainwashed; she was murdered I.C.E. yesterday.
We're a fascist nation, now. It's simply a fact.
It didn't have to be this way. But White America couldn't bring themselves to vote for the sitting VP, because she was a Black Woman.

Trump said today:
"MAGA is me. MAGA loves everything I do, and I love everything I do, too."
If your toddler spoke to you like this, you'd be concerned.
Most powerful man in the world, ladies and gents. Still hard to believe, I know.
