Mom, wife and political scientist by education but not by trade. Democrat and former New Yorker. I voted for her and her before that so don’t blame me for the mess we’re about to endure! We will have a female president in my lifetime!

ICE just raided our local Home Depot in Orlando. Of course, the masked thugs didn’t pick up any members of MS-13 — just a few hardworking immigrants trying to put food on the table for their families.

Your kids get a max of two toys and then grow up to work in the same factory as their father and grandfather screwing in tiny screws. It’s called The American Dream.

What has this country become? Deporting a 2 year old US citizen! This is unconscionable.

US District Judge Terry Doughty said the child, her mother, and sister had slready been released in Hondurus.

We wondered where the women were, now we know.

Stephen Miller, White House deputy chief of staff for policy, has begun baselessly claiming that birthright citizenship is a massive welfare scam.

Miller has previously endorsed a theory called “remigration” that refers to the forcible removal of non–ethnically European immigrants.

This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

Chasten and I are relieved that Governor Shapiro and his family are safe. While we wait to learn more, this much is clear: the targeting of a public official and his family - especially a prominent Jewish official on a major Jewish holiday - is unconscionable and has no place in our country.

"dei medal" you might as well just put "n*gger medal" because that's what they mean to say
This is blood-boiling. Charles Rogers was awarded the Medal of Honor in Vietnam after being wounded three times leading the defense of a position.

Google his name and the entry below comes up. When you click, you'll see the page has been deleted and the URL changed to include "DEI medal."
