I would say more broadly that as policy you really shouldn’t allow government officials to accuse people of *terrorism* anonymously.

I hate to say this, and it gives me the chills just to think it, but CECOT is on (and not a short way down) the road to Auschwitz.

This isn't The Art of the Deal.
It's insider trading with a bad comb-over.
Step 1: Tank the Market, Scare the Non-Millionaires
Step 2: Let the Aristocrats Feast
Step 3: Flip, but say ‘Winning’
Step 4: Pretend None of This Ever Happened & Get Your Media Dregs To Do The Same
Rinse, Enrich, Repeat.

I still can’t figure out when “we can deport you” turned into “we can put you in a hell hole prison in a third country, indefinitely, with no legal recourse.”

None of the broligarchs knows what they’re talking about. They’re just hot air, spewing what sounds smart to them but is actually a telltale sign of ignorance.

EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them.

Susan needs to stop. How often do we hear she has concerned or that something is inappropriate and then she does nothing. All of her concerns are fake.
Oooooh such mediocre words from a mediocre politician that should have been replaced long ago. She has been an enabler for years. She is about as effective an ally as an old cow’s teat…..

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

Absolutely. Grind it to a halt.
