“.. They describe the legions of masked immigration officers operating in near-total anonymity on the orders of the president as the crossing of a line that had long set the United States apart from the world’s most repressive regimes.”

Dear ICE,

Qualified immunity protects officials from liability UNLESS their conduct violates clearly established statutory or constitutional rights of which a reasonable person would have known, SUCH AS: kidnapping, not identifying yourself, due process, excess force etc

IBM $150B over five years manufacturing & operations

United Arab Emirates $1.4T over 10yrs

Qatar $1.2T in an “economic exchange”

SaudiArabia $600B four years

Bahrain $17B in investments

…Honestly, to keep these pledges they only need to buy Trump’s fake coins…

The California Highway Patrol shared on Sunday that an explosive ordnance detonated prematurely over the I-5 freeway causing a piece of metal shrapnel to strike and damage a CHP patrol vehicle.

The CHP loves California and hates being shot at by our nation’s own President Trump.

!!! Trump now says he's secured $20 TRILLION in investments in America. His fake number has increased by $2 trillion just since last Thursday! (The entire US GDP is $30 trillion)

The president of the United States of America raped children. And somehow 70 million stupid “Christian” motherfuckers didn’t think that was a dealbreaker.

Trump runs The New York Times; that’s why the the real description of these national protests were incorrectly sized at “thousands” when the entire world could see and count—there were “millions” of protesters.

The paper fears both verbal & economic terror from Trump.

The NYT lost its credibility!

The @nytimes rightly taking heat for burying coverage of the massive protests in tiny pics below the fold on the cover and the story on page 23 — while saying they drew “thousands” (it was millions) and glazing Vance’s marines stunt.

What’s going on in there?

Update: My MAGA GOP Republican adult children went home.

Both said: Mom, when will you wake up? All YOU learned in school, college, business, & life was a lie.

Trump’s remaking government—Small, White, Christian— to end gays & red states don’t have homelessness.

My kids are Trump-cult members 😢

We're calling him Diarrhea Don. He's owning the libs so hard with this, it's brilliant. Everyone talking about the president's uncontrollable bowels, how manly and cool his uncontrollably explosive shits are.
