As I make clear to my students, Chemical weapons are only illegal in international war. On domestic "mobs" it's fine

I think you want to fault CNN hierarchy. Although, it seems like the hierarchy want some shameless conservative on the panel so there are "gotcha" moments where other panelists point out the shamelessness of trump supporters and that trump/trump apologists actually have no values

Sunday, at least 7 ICE agents stormed a house and took an elderly man out into the freezing cold, wearing only his underwear and a blanket.

He was a member of the Hmong community, which came to the area from Laos in the 1970s after siding with the US in the Vietnam War.

Notice the suppressors

But by the 1870s most white northerners were like 🤷‍♂️ for Black rights. Hopefully we're more 1850s than 1870s.

The first great American 250th anniversary date of the year arrives this Friday: the publication of Thomas Paine's COMMON SENSE, which occurred on January 9, 1776.

Many sources have the date as January 10, 1776. This is incorrect. But what accounts for the confusion???? Friends, follow me.
