Here's an idea: Rob Reiner's daughters should sue Trump for $20 billion dollars (evidently Trump's favorite number) for slander, defamation, inciting violence, and intentional infliction of emotional distress.

The US Administration has banned Americans from *adopting babies* from much of the African continent.

Adopting.

Babies.

What trait do those babies have that, when they grow up as fully American adults, would make them a threat to our country in any form?
On that last post: I genuinely cannot think of any good-faith reason to bar international adoptions from those 39 countries. Under this new ban, consulates will refuse adoption visas for any baby from Cuba, Haiti, Venezuela, Nigeria, or any of the 39 other countries.

Q: A number of Republicans have denounced your statement on Rob Reiner. Do you stand by it?

TRUMP: Well, I wasn't a fan of his at all. He was a deranged person as far as Trump is concerned.

NEWSMAX: Your goal is 5,000 arrests in New Orleans. How did you come up with that figure?

BOVINO: That figure is something, um, that we talked about and it's definitely something that's attainable

🗣️ @redstateupdate.bsky.social (Murfreesboro): “It costs you a lot to be racist— health care, livable wages, due process… the racism is worth it for some people. And somebody’s making money hand over fist by dragging (brown) people out and locking them up in camps 🎯.”

As we mourn Rob Reiner, don’t skip this: he was, pretty much, personally responsible for overturning California’s Prop 8 banning same sex marriage.

Every accusation is an confession; the Trump admin says they’ll “re-review” 230,000 refugees who came under Biden in case they weren’t truly refugees, while also ordering the State Department to declare that white South Africans automatically meet the definition of refugees.
Some news on Trump's doling out of most refugee slots to white South Africans: Two former State Department officials tell us basic protocols designed to determine whether this group actually merits protection have simply been scrapped. It's just whim.

Hegseth is very transparently blaming a Navy admiral for his own decision. Let this be a lesson for every other military officer: The Trump administration will issue unlawful orders, then blame you for following them.

Elon Musk is not only an immigrant, his brother spilled the tea that Elon was in the US illegally.

And as this tweet shows, he is also a dipshit with absolutely no self-awareness.

Trump promoting a death threat should not be dismissed as just one more of his excesses.

When a wannabe autocrat aligns himself with a call to execute political foes, it’s not just another Trump social media post. It’s another warning.

We have a US administration trying to bully Ukrainians into accepting Russia’s proposal that their sovereignty be undone. Aside from the naked injustice of this, there are five basic practical reasons why it would make the world far more dangerous.

Trump reposted a call, from a Nazi account, to hang his opposition, also declares that an "example must be set" for anyone that encourages the military to not follow illegal orders e.g. shooting or massacring civilians.

This week, I withdrew from a speaking engagement at a public university because they sent me a list of prohibited “words & concepts.” I will not humor this censorship. It does a disservice to the stories I’m discussing & the audience, who deserve unfettered access to information & conversation.
