For some reason, I'm thinking about how aggressively Savannah Guthrie has interviewed Trump. During an October 2020 town hall, she took him to task for spreading conspiracy theories, COVID, and election denial. She scolded: "You're not like someone's crazy uncle who can just retweet whatever." 🤔

Proof that it's all been about racial profiling.
Less than 14% of those arrested by ICE in Trump's 1st year back in office had violent criminal records, document shows
The official DHS statistics, which had not been previously reported, provide the most detailed look yet into who ICE has arrested during the Trump administration's crackdown.

A hateful, vendictive and evil man named Donald Trump, manufactured a trade crisis and brought our rebounding economy, under president Biden, to a staggering halt. American families are going broke and Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans are to blame.

Mark Payne stabbed a 14 year old boy multiple times nearly killing him, he was convicted of Attempted Murder but only spent 4 years in jail.
He also sexually harrassed two teenage girls.
Now he is out on streets 'protecting women and girls'.

Goldman to Lyons: "You said in your opening statement that references to ICE as 'the Gestapo' or 'secret police' encourages threats against ICE agents. The problem is you have it backwards. People are simply making valid observations about your tactics, which are un-American and outright fascist."

If only the BBC political journalists had held the Tories to account. Indeed, imagine if they put as much effort into speculating about Farage and Reform.

One year into RFK Jr.’s tenure, and the results are clear: our public health system is weaker, Americans are less safe and less healthy, and science has been pushed aside. He must be impeached.

Starmer's government has brought energy bills down, re-nationalised the railways, raised the minimum wage, put VAT on private schools, ended the non-dom tax loopholes, is planning to ban 2nd jobs for MPs and much more.
I wonder why the oligarch-supported media would want to get rid of him?

Farage claims his failed-Tory recruitment drive is because he needs people with experience of govt.
What he really means is - experience of lying. Repeatedly and shamelessly.
He has a stellar line-up with Braverman, Zahawi and the v practised, ‘Honest Bob’.
What a grim bunch of grubby little cheats.

Robert Jenrick is lying.
Reform UK have spent, to date, almost £1.5 MILLION with Harding Print Solutions.
They are NOT a local Manchester printer.
They are Reform's go-to print company and have been for a long time.

Trump’s family is billions of dollars richer than last year. The average American family? They’re worse off.
Trump’s top priority has always been himself. If he spent half as much time actually being President as he has profiting off his presidency, the story might be different.
