The Stephen Miller/Star Trek thing is an opportunity to point out that left-leaning ideals have been around, and popular, forever.

Let's talk about the midterms.
ICE is terrorizing and punishing blue states and cities to suppress your votes using fear from ICE- yes it's already started.
Blue states need to wake up and have a plan to deploy the National Guard to protect polling stations & voters from the federal government!

When trump is gone, all of his sycophants, MAGA and enablers will no longer have protections! From the looks of it, they should be very afraid. 😱

Quit talking about Trump. Address everything, every issue to Miller and Vought. Make Trump irrelevant, his ego will not let him be out of the spotlight and you’ll see Miller and Vought removed and the rest of the administration collapse.

Absolutely despicable.
There seemingly is no limit to the depths of depravity the administration will go to cover for their propaganda machine.
We need to arrest and prosecute the federal agent that murdered Renee Nicole Good. And we need trials for those involved.

There has 100% been a vibe shift on Twitter this week — apolitical and sports people are talking about Minneapolis and even a lot of right-leaning Finance Bros are like “you freaks have lost your minds.”
Whether that is representative of anything in the real world is TBD but it’s noticeable.

It begins with a "you may recall" summary of the deportation to el Salvador. Describes the admin's claim that it could deport the men without due process

This image (File 468 in the Epstein records), showing Donald Trump, was part of the DOJ’s Friday release and has since vanished from the agency’s website. Funny how that works. Someone must have missed that redaction, oops.

Donald billionaire Trump today: “Affordability — they just say the word, it doesn't mean anything to anybody.”
“The word affordability is a con job by the Democrats.”
Boy, he is in for a shock if he keeps this up; talk about being out of touch with Americans.
