yelling that Trump is doing something "against the law" is meaningless if there are no consequences

They’re really open about being villains. Just oppressively awful all the time.

Someone should literally just ask them at a press conference: Why are you guys such assholes?

if the republican party is going to performatively pledge allegiance to the flag and just pay lip service to the part about "liberty and justice FOR ALL" then they really aren't pledging allegiance to the flag now are they?

Mixed-status families have been caught in limbo since President Trump began his efforts to end birthright citizenship.

Parents shouldn’t live in fear, not knowing if their kids will be targeted — we’re fighting back at the Supreme Court.

She asked one question: "Are you ICE?"

Crazy how Trump is flailing, Epstein files are coming out, the economy is going to shit, and Republicans are defecting and the first thing his admin does is pivot to attacking trans people. It's all they know. Just distract everyone from what's important by attacking a vulnerable minority group.

The thing I kept saying leading up to the 2024 election was that a vote for Trump was a vote to hand power to Stephen Miller. A man who masterminded family separation at the southern border. Miller showed us who he was and what he was able to do.

And dammit I wish I wasn’t right.

This was never just about illegal immigration. We are all living in Stephen Miller’s racist fever dream. 🇺🇸

From 1947 to 1979, wages and productivity rose in tandem, driving broad-based prosperity. After 1980, productivity kept climbing while wages and compensation stalled. This disconnect defines the Great Regression, a period in which workers produce more but receive far less in return.
