As in "home sweet home"; a refuge; a place to call HOME; the "I'm homesick" home: the "this day sucks, I can't wait to get HOME" home!!

JFC enough with "prettying up" words so it doesn't offend YOU. Respect for the homeless, hungry, addicts and prostitutes is being honest about their situation.

I am really restraining myself from a tangent. I cannot, for the gd life of me, understand the need to use the blandest word sequences to describe a serious situation. "Food insecure"??? Are you shîtting me?? No, it doesn't give someone "more respect"! It smooths over their plight!!

ICYMI — Trump lied that Chicago had “4000” murders, when it’s projected to have 380 this year (way down from last year)

If it’s so bad there why does he have to keep lying about it?

In Chicago, four vehicles descended and eight ICE agents moved in to kidnap a child.

She screams, “I’m 15,” as ICE yanks her from the car and kneels on her neck.

This is not about immigration enforcement.

It's about terrorizing Americans.

Just to be clear, racist dog murderer Kristi Noem once accused President Biden of trying to federalize the National Guard which is EXACTLY what the totalitarian orange felon is doing by making them his personal army to instill chaos and promote fear/violence. Fuck fascism.
