Kid Rock, who clearly shops at the "Tacky Meth-heads Who Like Silly Costumes" outlet, really shouldn't open his stupid mouth to talk about how other people look.

And Laura Ingraham should never open her snarling mouth to talk about anything.

Noem is quite disgusting in her auditioning for 2028. Trump has all of his flunkies auditioning to be his designee presidential candidate for 2028, in case his own bid for an unconstitutional 3rd presidential term fails and/or his running mate if he is gifted eligibility by SCOTUS.

Q: What guarantees did you give Hamas to persuade them Israel will stop the bombing campaign once hostages have been exchanged?

TRUMP: What did I do with respect to them? Well, you know, I spoke a little bit tough ... they knew retribution would be tremendous. Would've been complete obliteration.

😂😂🤣 "Spoke a little bit tough." Yeah, Okay! Trump lied to and begged both sides to help him win the Nobel Peace Prize and offered up something terribly big that will be leaked out later by someone who is getting laid-off or is closed to someone else who is loses their job.

Trump: "The person who actually got the Nobel Prize called today, called me, and said 'I'm accepting this in honor of you, because you really deserved it.' A really nice thing to do. I didn't say 'Then give it to me, though.'"

This is not a border crossing.
There’s no law that any of us have to show our papers on the interior.

This is a blatant civil rights violation. How is anyone supposed to know whether this man is a real ICE agent or just pretending to be one?!

A producer and editor for WGN-TV was violently forced to the ground this morning by two Border Patrol agents, before having her hands cuffed behind her back, during an ICE action in Chicago’s Lincoln Park neighborhood.

Debbie Brockman has worked for the local television station since 2011.

We can beat them and we don't have to have a civil war. We are in the millions. Citizens are strong when they unite for freedom.
JFC I can't believe this is what we're dealing with. But we are and unity is the only way. No other country is going swoop in and save us. WE have to be the change.

We know authoritarians push and push and push until they control everything.

I hope it leads to pro-democracy Americans standing up in full force and dominating the cable news cycle.

2) Reconsidering that the many morons in Trump's pocket, it is likely he is trying to layoff only Dems, but like in his other closures and firings, many Trump voters will be lose their jobs
