MSNBC reporter presents Trump's shameful racism towards Somalis as merely "a different view"

Just naked, unabashed racism from the president, and every vapidly smiling sycophant surrounding him.
Trump: "It’s a hellhole right now. And those Somalians should be out of here. They've destroyed our country. And all they do is complain, complain, complain. You have her. She’s always talking about the Constitution provides me with – go back to your own country and figure out your constitution."

This makes a lot more sense when you picture staffers desperately trying to explain basic government functions to Trump like he's five, and him taking everything they say 100% literally.
Trump: "They're finding money in our country now that they never knew existed. The other day -- $30b. Where did it come from? I said, 'Why don't you check the tariffs shelf?' They said, 'Sir, that tariff hasn't started yet.' I said, 'No, it started 2 months ago.' They call back- 'sir, you're right'"

Who ICE actually targets:
Guzmán, an immigrant from Mexico, had a pending petition for asylum and a pending application for a visa for victims of crime. That didn't stop ICE from separating her from her 15-day-old infant in NICU. 19thnews.org/2025/12/post... via @19thnews.org
Her baby was in the NICU. She was in ICE detention.
Before Trump took office, postpartum immigrants were rarely detained by ICE. Nayra Guzmán was detained while her 15-day-old baby was in the NICU.

Q: So you didn't see any survivors after that first strike?
HEGSETH: I did not personally see survivors. The thing was on fire. This is called the fog of war. This is what you in the press don't understand. You sit in your air conditioned offices and plant fake stories in the Washington Post

Hegseth didn't order a 'war crime', because there has been no declaration of war.
Hegseth ordered extrajudicial killings.
Pedantic? Maybe. But no less important regardless.

For some reason Democratic leaders seem to prefer telling voters what they won’t be able to do, rather than what they’d like to do.
If Hegseth ordered a war crime and lied about it, shouldn’t Ds try for impeachment? Put Rs on the spot. They might get a few defections.

All things being equal, just imagine getting an MRI and having no idea why.
Reporter: Governor Walz called for the release of your MRI results
Trump: They were perfect like my phone call where I got impeached.
Reporter: Can you tell us what they were looking at?
Trump: I have no idea. It was just an MRI. It wasn’t the brain because I took a cognitive test and aced it.

"...breaks their oath to America" is a good reminder that Musk is a South African who eventually gained US citizenship.
He can only be talking about immigrants here, not natural born citizens, and I doubt he even realizes it.

"ass to the blast" remains one of the best bumper sticker pieces of advice I've gotten from Martin.
Seriously, some version of duck & cover is often good advice.
Severe emotional distress, machinery sprays parts, a missile is headed at your installation or neighbor, you’re caught in earthquake, you are in severe sandstorm, nuclear warhead is about to or just detonated “nearby”…

To be explicit, we executed a German U-Boat commander who said he had to sink lifesaving gear / “inadvertently” kill survivors because it might give away his position, thereby potentially resulting in the loss of his submarine.
We executed multiple members of that crew.

Ordering no quarter, as Hegseth effectively did, isn't a newfangled modern war crime. It was understood as a crime as far back as the Revolutionary War. Washington threatened to do reprisals over it. The bad guy in 'The Patriot' is (very loosely) based off a British officer who was notorious for it.

Thanksgiving dinner done and over with. No vanity shots to share, and it was just traditional New England fare (for the in-laws sake) but I can easily say this is one of the best birds I've done.
Just stuffed and roasted, but every piece was dripping juice and almost falling apart it was so tender.
