Making political hay out of this makes you an asshole. A ghoulish one.
If I die under this administration, don’t bother burying me — just dump my body on the White House lawn.

It's worth your time to call Hilton to cancel your account with them. 1-800-446-6677. Here's why:
They asked me if it was because of the ICE thing. I said it was. Then they suggested I wait a couple days to see if they were going to change course.
The pressure is getting to them. Let's keep it up.

At the very least, we'd have six months of not hearing from Mark Cuban, so win-win all around.

This is a great idea and he should do it. Let's Nickel & Dimed the guy. Let him see how far he gets with making ultimatums of his manager after a month working as a used car salesman.
If billionaire Mark Cuban needed to rebuild his fortune from scratch, he knows exactly what he'd do. Step 1, he says: Land the first sales job he can get.
Here's what Mark Cuban would do with just a phone and $500 in cash: ‘That is the best question I have ever been asked’

It's actually a good thing that previously apolitical normies are finally getting angry and starting to speak out. We need the numbers in the streets and at the polls.
If your response to them is "no, fuck you, too late," then you don't actually care about stopping Trump. You're just preening.

Bill Ackman appears to have given $10,000 to the GoFundMe for the legal fund for Jonathan Ross, the ICE cop who murdered Renee Good.

The caveat here is that there's no evidence this is *the* Bill Ackman -- it's an otherwise empty profile, and the only fundraiser it's recorded as having given money to is this one
But if it's a prank, boy, that's a lot of money for a prank.
