Prime example of white privilege in plain sight.

Black kids get called adults to justify blame, while white adults get called “kids” to excuse their hate. They’re not boys and girls, they’re grown-ass men and women, and the receipts are in writing.

Look, the Times was obviously unable to confirm at time of publication what the brown liquid that looked like diarrhea and that appeared to have been dumped from an AI-generated jet fighter by the president of United was intended to represent in his mind.

NYT sanewashing extends, apparently, to sparing NYT readers from a description of Trump's literal shit.

Living in a red state SC midlands it was so uplifting to see so so many of us - I was good to see them in the wild. It gave me hope.

Gov. Pritzker: "It's clear Trump is trying to militarize our cities, and he's doing that with ICE now....He's also trying to just show off that he is in fact an authoritarian and can do whatever it is that he wants. But we're pushing back and we're winning."

The late John McCain knew that there were Russian assets in congress, so this is not new.

What is Trump talking about when he says he wants to go after “Democrat programs”?

Healthcare? Clean air? Safe food?

These aren’t “Democrat programs.” These are people programs.

any prosecutor or agent will tell you,reneging on a deal with informants is a disaster for ongoing cases, plus incredibly shabby.

“The deal is a deep betrayal of U.S. law enforcement, whose agents risked their lives to apprehend the gang members.”

www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Rubio promised to betray U.S. informants to get Trump’s El Salvador prison deal

To secure U.S. access to President Nayib Bukele’s notorious CECOT prison, Rubio agreed to turn over several MS-13 leaders central to a long-running Justice Department investigation.
