I just need to say this: Merrick Garland sucks. Shitt pick for AG. He failed our country. He's been invisible ever since. Go listen to his first speech where he wanted to good by America...what a joke that was.

Take a minute from your day and read this chilling story about how quickly we've gotten to where we are.
1. Clay Jackson, a Texas lawyer, provided basic legal advice to an immigrant family fearing deportation

Then, two officers visited him at his home, accusing him of "obstructing an ongoing immigration investigation"

Then, after speaking publicly, he was fired from his job at a Fortune 500 company
Fortune 500 company abruptly fires lawyer who helped immigrant family
On March 4, Clay Jackson, an attorney in the Dallas area, was at a gas station near his home when the attendant asked if he would help a local immigrant family.

Its true that America citizens can’t legally be deported. It’s equally clear that this administration doesn’t care about what the law says. www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...

11 year old Jocelynn Rojo Carranza of Gainesville, Texas, took her own life after classmates bullied her into thinking ICE was being called on her family.

I hope and pray that the parents of her bullies burn in hell for raising such God awful “children.”

Donald Trump and Elon Musk are messing with your Medicare benefits.

Democrats passed a law to finally let Medicare negotiate with Big Pharma for lower prices.

Now Trump and Musk laid off the negotiators.

That means higher drug costs for you. Nothing efficient about that.
