The people whose names literally show up thousands of times in the Epstein files want you to think a 5-year-old refugee and star kindergarten student is the problem with this country rather than the white pedophiles in charge of it who keep stealing American money and assaulting American children

In 2016, the Philadelphia Inquirer, emerging from a messy bankruptcy, was acquired by Lenfest and donated to a nonprofit community trust. The Graham family, meanwhile, sold the Post to the richest man in the world.
Today, Will Bunch has a job at the Inky, and Karen Attiah was fired from the Post.

How will they enforce any of this when DHS is already ignoring constitutional rights? Maybe we need special camps where these misbehaving agents are sent. We could even bypass the overburdened court system. Perhaps a task force of irregular deputized wine moms could simply enforce on sight.

They talk about cartels as a reason for some exceptions and I guess I’m still waiting for any evidence whatsoever that they’ve encountered even one proven cartel member. Even a member of the of the Lollipop Guild.

People often disparage the press — and we often get it wrong — but almost everything you know about this administration is not because pundits go on tv or social media and pontificate but because of relentless reporting from real journalists at institutions that give them resources to do so.

The Supreme Court settled this in 1954 (Accardi): immigration judges are supposed to be neutral. If they bend to the executive's whims instead of acting neutrally, deporting people bc the President dislikes them, the deportations are unlawful. supreme.justia.com/cases/federa...

People need to really understand that what is happening here in Minneapolis has not slowed down. It has accelerated and if you live in a blue city or blue state, it is already happening It may not be as violent as it has been here yet, but it will be. The federal government is waging war against us
