You know, we had this joke in Europe: “hey, scientists found another country with American oil underneath it.”

Here’s the joke manifested ⬇️

Donald J. Trump & €
@realDonald Trump
Christianity is facing an existential threat in Nigeria. Thousands of Christians are being killed.
Radical Islamists are responsible for this mass slaughter. I am hereby making Nigeria a
"COUNTRY OF PARTICULAR CONCERN" - But that is the least of it. When Christians, or any such group, is slaughtered like is happening in Nigeria (3,100 versus 4,476 Worldwide), something must be done! I am asking Congressman Riley Moore, together with Chairman Tom Cole and the House
Appropriations Committee, to immediately look into this matter, and report back to me. The United States cannot stand by while such atrocities are happening in Nigeria, and numerous other Countries. We stand ready, willing, and able to save our Great Christian population around the World!
DONALD J. TRUMP,
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

An interesting point about Tr*'s remodel of the Lincoln Bathroom

This is another acquired fascist trait actually. In the 1930s Art Deco was considered a degenerate modern expression, and Trump's distain for the style is likely connected to this ideology.

His taste for a faux-classic, B-movie brothel aesthetic reflects his political will to power - fascism.

The Trump administration has repeatedly claimed that it needs to send the military into American cities because of the unique danger faced by federal agents enforcing immigration laws.

ICE's own data begs to differ.

How dangerous is it really to work for ICE?

According to ICE’s own data, none of its officers have been killed by an immigrant in the agency’s history.

The Trump administration must obey the law.

"on Halloween, on a beautiful Fall day in a neighborhood with very little to no crime, driving around kidnapping landscapers.

This is happening today in suburbs north of Chicago. #chicago

Self-absorbed billionaires "are NOT welcome to the keys to our democracy." Another excellent talk by Abigail Disney (<4 mins long). Also, studies have found the wealthy are less generous & compassionate; they spend less time looking at others & show less response when faced with another’s suffering.
