Stephen Miller had wording that protected American citizens from deportation stripped from the funding bill that is now before the Senate.
Let that sink in: this government wants the ability to arrest Americans and deport them. NO ONE is safe with this regime in power.

Although Schumer has stated that “Senate Democrats will not provide the votes to proceed to the appropriations bill if the DHS funding bill is included.” Fetterman is planning to break with Democrats. Fetterman must be primaried, Pennsylvania deserves better representation.

Suggesting that the VP and Cabinet invoke the 25th amendment is like pissing in the wind. They're all promoting self interests and feel no loyalty to our country. They pledge allegiance to Trump on a daily basis. The only way to remove Trump is for GOP Congress members to grow a spine and impeach.

Trump says it would be a "great honor" to accept Machado's Nobel Peace Prize. He can put it on a shelf with the FIFA Peace Prize, and Purple Hearts that he eagerly took from veterans who actually earned them. If there's still room on the shelf I can send him my daughter's soccer participation medal

Leavitt on protestors giving ICE the finger: "People don't do this without encouragement from people in power who make them feel that it's okay."
So it's okay for Trump to give a Ford factory worker the finger, but not for protestors to do the same to ICE.
