Veterans stage a sit-in on the US Capitol steps and say, “Military off our streets!” Hell yeah!

Every day he hits a new low.

To the 77 million who voted for him and for those that couldn’t be bothered to vote - you got what you voted for. ( and not voting is voting)

This is the truth.
Newsom: "Democracy is under assault before our eyes. This moment we have feared has arrived. He's taking a wrecking ball to our Founding Father's historic project."

ICE is gearing up to deploy to these blue cities:

Chicago, NYC, the DC area, Seattle, and Philly.

If any of these are your hometowns—get ready.
If not—watch anyway, all the way through, because Trump’s unhinged order will affect you. Spread the word.

Sarah Stillman investigates a widespread crisis of deaths by starvation in America’s county jails. Most of the victims she identified had been arrested in the midst of a mental-health crisis, often on petty charges tied to their psychiatric distress.

Could not have said it better. Spot on
I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving.

There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later.

They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

Trump vows to 'HIT' any protester who spits on police. He pardoned those who did far worse on Jan. 6

Trump vows to 'HIT' any protester who spits on police. He pardoned those who did far worse on Jan. 6
President Donald Trump is deploying a double standard in warning protesters against his immigration policies that they will get “hit” if they so much as spit on law enforcement.
