“I only think we should pay people I like.”

It’s time. We aren’t just getting close to time. We are there.

Serious question: What's stopping the State of Illinois from arresting Stephen Miller & charging him with incitement?

The Senate didn't confirm him. He's just a guy.

At some point, the states MUST use their authority to prosecute, because the federal government certainly will not.

When 97% of the stories about a person are bad, free speech protections are working properly and you may be a crappy leader.

Trump: "When 97% of the stories are bad about a person, that's no longer free speech."

That’ll be her plan. But she’s too informed to let live. If not Trump…

Nope. That’s a place of honor for the Trumps.

This man is a psychopath.

THEY THEY THEY!

He’s spitting and screeching. About PORTLAND!!

And what is really scary is that MAGA believes what he says. They really believe that Portland is in flames.

CNN: Isn't that hyperbolic to call them terrorists?

STEPHEN MILLER: No. If anything I'm understating the severity of the situation

Good luck with that one, Disney.

Almost everyone hated Project 2025 before the election, so Trump lied about it.

ICE is too dangerous to be left unaccountable.
Violence & abuse against Americans is wrong.

If you see an incident occurring, get out your cellphone. Document it. Send it to your Congressperson and the press. Do it anonymously if you need to. #BeTheChange

Did the autopsy force them to change the cause of death? Because I know news outlets reported this as a su*cide.

Agreed. But blaming the war on today’s American Democrats isn’t historically accurate. But I agree they haven’t done anything to fix it. And they fuel the fire.

Day old smegma.

Isn’t it always this way, though. It’s more predictable that people would go along with poor leadership than fight back. The fact that we hope for more from people, to me anyway, is a sign of hopefulness.
