It's never that they are wrong. It's that protestors are paid, or the judge is married to someone with an opposing viewpoint, or the polls are fixed.
For a party that wants everyone to "man up" and "be alphas," they are quite a group of little whiny bitch babies.

Harmeet Dhillon on Don Lemon: "We made a presentation to the magistrate judge. And the judge, who is married to someone who works for AG Ellison, who has had a lot to say about ICE, declined to give us all we were asking for. That's just part of the process... there are other ways to pursue charges"

Let's review the facts at hand here: A Democratic administration discovered and prosecuted a case of welfare fraud. Republicans are now using this case to smear hundreds of thousands of immigrants and militarize an entire city.
And your conclusion is that Democrats need to do something different?

The message from the White House this morning is that, once again, it falls on ordinary American citizens to remain calm and professional when dealing with the heavily armed agents of the government because they are very emotional and might fly off into a murderous rage at the slightest insult.

Trump: "I'm a fan of Denmark too. They've been very nice to me. But the fact that they had a boat land there [Greenland] 500 years ago doesn't mean they own the land. I'm sure we had lots of boats go there also."

According to my sources, the FBI was initially open to a concurrent investigation with the MN Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (the state agency that would do this investigation).
Trumpy U.S. Attorney Daniel Rosen heard about this and intervened, barring the FBI from cooperating with local police.
