A Trump supporter started murdering his way through an assassination list of Democratic law makers FIVE MONTHS AGO. He murdered my colleague Melissa Hortman, and her husband Mark — and attempted to assassinate my dear friend John Hoffman and his wife Yvette. I was also on the hit list. WTF

Then why’d they release that survivor back to Colombia.
Cotton on Trump's boat strikes: "Use common sense. If any of these had been boats full of fisherman or refugees, CNN would've already been on the ground & interviewed all their families & told their stories. We can be confident all of these strikes have been against cartel-based drug traffickers."

Insular cultures that seek to cut their members off from accessing state legal systems in favor of “community reconciliation/justice” are universally primed for scenarios like this.

Religious or secular, doesn’t matter.
Leaders of a Minnesota church community didn’t report a parishioner they knew had sexually abused girls for year.

My Border Policy is very strict (everyone who arrives is given a “Congratulations, you made it!” balloon and some residency paperwork)
The original American immigration policy was the correct and most efficient one:

"Oh wow, you made it here? Okay, you clearly want to be here, welcome and good luck, my fellow American."

This requires you to believe he was at all a getable endorsement and not an active participant in the far-right ratfucking operation.

Making overtures towards him would have failed and made the campaign look weaker for the asking
the real popularist position is that Kamala Harris should have promised HHS to RFK Jr. in order to secure his voters

Sure is nice of him to remind us all of his attempt to extort the mayor.
