I've called on students who haven't done any reading all semester who look less like deer in the headlights than this guy.

Such a clown show.

(Also, isn't it AN-ti-fa, not an-TI-fa? No one was "I'm anTI-fascist." Tho maybe the goal is distract from what the group the FBI is anti to is anti to.)
GLASHEEN: Antifa is our primary concern right now. That's the most immediate violent threat we're facing

BENNIE THOMPSON: Where is antifa headquartered?

GLASHEEN: ... ... ... we are building out the infrastructure right now

THOMPSON: What does that mean?

Ahead of the votes, Schumer warned Republicans that if they did not vote to extend the tax credits, “there won’t be another chance to act,” and “The American people are watching.”

In case you ever needed proof that the Heritage Foundation is not a conservative organization, here we have them cheering on the Federal Government threatening to strip all funding from a state that does not make political decisions the President likes. Any true conservative would be howling.
The US government is now a mafia organization.

It’s Eugenics.

So are his immigration policies, the EO 7/24 about
institutionalizing the homeless, desire to erase previous birthright citizenship rights along with future cases, healthcare, etc.

Eliminate the sick, poor, colored, disabled, old, different…. Eugenics.

After the Shut Down 🔪 Back, is anyone surprised the Senate voted not to extend ACA CREDITS?

It’s just one more crisis to add to the list:

Uninsured
Health Care
Medication
Groceries
Joblessness
Affordability
Housing
Constitutional Rights

What’s Missing?

The key question in American politics now is whether public disapproval of Trump will grow fast enough to save our democracy before Trump builds such a crushing dictatorship that public opinion no longer matters.

A media mogel with important merger business before the FCC says he has "great conversations" about it with Trump, while Trump for his part speaks openly about the kind of ownership he wants to see at CNN, a news network he detests.

Currently, this horror show of a government, (which, in actuality, are a medley of unqualified morons) still has Kilmar Abrego Garcia in ICE Custody. As they mull over sending him to Liberia, Uganda or any other 3rd World Country, a Judge who understands the law, has ordered his immediate release.

I see. So it’s entirely made up??
🚨Judge Xinis finds that, incredibly, Mr. Abrego Garcia was never ordered deported in 2019. She notes that every since this saga began all the way back in March, the government has NEVER been able to produce any evidence that the immigration judge actually issued a removal order.

Trump’s throwing a fit because the ICC won’t bow to him and now he’s threatening to burn the whole court down.
Nothing screams innocent like demanding immunity from crimes against humanity.
The investigations are coming, and he knows it.

Future history books will note the quest to repeal Obamacare is when the Republican Party became hell bent on destroying the country out of pure spite.

The horror of giving people access to healthcare, doctors & medicine is the stuff of GOP nightmares.
