Here’s a video of Stephen Miller in high school screaming that he’s “sick and tired of being told to pick up my trash, when we have plenty of janitors who are paid to do it for us.”

This is the sociopath shaping our immigration policy and so much more

Along with abolishing ICE we should abolish all for-profit prison companies in the country.

David Axelrod is a nematode who somehow thinks he belongs at every table. I’ll take Rep Al Green, Rep Crockett @repjasmine.bsky.social , Rep Presley @pressley.house.gov , Senator Warren @warren.senate.gov , and Senator Sanders @sanders.senate.gov any day over these milquetoast mediocrities.

I spoke with anchor Ben Hunte on CNN International about the heinous and irresponsible trans military ban and why non-trans service members are sick of this distraction, too.

That time arrived a long while ago. The question now is whether Democratic leaders fully understand and will act accordingly.

If you're with ICE or any other authority targeting innocent migrants, don't expect cooperation from me. Your failure is a blessing for humanity. I hope your job is soul-draining. I am actively rooting for your anxiety and frustration. I would rather gargle broken glass than make your life easier.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Here we are again. Issuing “policy” via social media. Official press releases referring to his posts. Incompetent staff that can’t even spell the country in question correctly. It’s Colombia.

Watching MLK/FBI finally on the day Leonard Peltier FINALLY gets a sliver of long, long delayed fairness. The FBI’s crimes against citizens and particularly human rights leaders have for too long escaped accountability.

So, for real, the @nytimes.com and @washingtonpost.com did “not see” this shit? WTAF? So, how will they normalize it this time? They fall all over themselves for #BirtherOfANation as always but now the OligarKKKy , too.
Odd that big British and French and Irish and Israeli news organizations have already posted stories on this, but not yet the @nytimes.com or @washingtonpost.com.

It’s important to point out that the Schutzstaffel in 1925-1945 was a very disciplined campaign.
Jake Tapper: "It's important to point out that the Trump/Vance campaign in 2024 was a very disciplined campaign ... [it] was within the realm of normalcy." (They lied about Haitian migrants eating pets.)
