Your logic is lacking; a crime was committed in the daycare scandal. The more you pooh-pooh it, the more the MAGAs will turn it against you, even as they commit greater crimes everyday. Grow up, and smell the rot.

Agreed, but the "learing" center scandal WAS and IS a huge scandal. You're feeding right into the MAGA maw with your downplaying if it.

The daycare "scandal" was a whopper of a scandal. Face up to it. Fiscal incompetence, failed government oversight. A scam. But Trump is using it to tar all Somalis, all of "the other". If it wasn't real he'd make one up, like, "they're eating your cats and dogs".

Thank you, Sir. I was suspended by X last night because I said "a stroke can't come fast enough" about you-know-who. Yet HE can fall for NBC "to put Colbert to sleep." I do not recognize my country. Happy 2026.

Hi, and may 2026 be an improvement on this miserable year! I tried to contact your "merch" about an order I placed about a month a go for a lavender hashtag Tee for my daughter, but can't reach them. Got a confirmation email back then, but nothing since. Do NOT want to bother you but

We called them PIGS in the late '60s, but it turned out they weren't really. These are, and so is their president.
