I know we normalize everything this thoroughly abnormal man does but to reiterate: the president is SUING a newspaper over a poll result he doesn’t like and claims not to believe.

He is suing over a poll. Insanity. 25th Amendment territory. Again.
Trump says he's adding his bad poll numbers to his lawsuit against the Times. Deeply embarrassing stuff.

A lot of people are ignoring the racism even when they criticize Trump, and it’s noticeable
No mention of the disgusting, over the top explicit anti-Somalian racism or castigating allies as “ungrateful” but plenty of room for recasting clear threats as concessions and senile ramblings as adopting a “strong tone.” Meanwhile in his actual speech he claimed leaders usually call him “daddy”

So shameful.

NJ Gov Phil Murphy (Dem) VETOED bill that would have restricted local and state law enforcement from cooperating with ICE. He claimed it would have invited new legal challenges.

“ICE is already here, kidnapping people, and we can’t obey in advance out of fear... ” said Nedia Morsy.

Phil Murphy killed a bill that'd have codified in law restrictions on how sheriffs and police can partner with ICE. Some restrictions remain in place, for now, via an attorney general directive.

White people love to cling to this fantasy of the US as a shining beacon of hope. You can look up stories from black people at every point of history you want to praise this country and see subjugation and terrorism from some part of the US government.
Those atrocities were un-American, too. Why do the evil-doers get to decide what the fundamental American values are? Let's define them ourselves.
I fear my tipping point into madness is "Thus is un-American" posts in response to ICE terrorizing immigrants. I beg you to open Wikipedia (I would say a book but let's start small) and read up on The Trail of Tears, Fugitive Slave Catchers, Japanese internment, Indian Boarding schools & Jim Crow

The best ICE news you'll read all week. 🤡

ICE had a guy who was involved the biggest jewel heist in America history ($100 million) self-deport to Ecuador last month. He had been detained as a legal resident in Sept 2025.

Most of the jewels have NOT been recovered.
