Jennings wouldn't recognise the truth if it bit him and in a crowded field,he is CNN'S very worst ,by some margin,RWNJ mouthpiece who vomits forth his dangerous mendacious moronic claptrap.

Scott Jennings is either lying or wildly misinformed about what happened in Chicago. He keeps claiming 37 Tren de Aragua gang members were arrested. As if it excuses zip tying kids.

DHS says 37 were arrested, and only 2 were suspected gang members.

Van Lathan gets it. We can’t lose our humanity.

🤣🤣🤣More Iike a rusty sheriff's badge 😉 for $75-$95 per single "ornament".The sort of thing you'd expect from someone whose idea of class is probably taking the dishes out of the sink,before you pee in it.

The winner of the Fat Bear Week contest was "Chunk". Appropriately named, despite a broken jaw, he managed to fatten himself up quite nicely for hibernation.

He acknowledges the conflict ,but his clear message is our continued contamination of all aspects of life with plastic is unsustainable.

This sort of Mafia style interest rates hiding behind a corporate logo should be illegal. Because It takes a particularly heartless ghoulish mindset to take advantage of those who can least afford it, basically you have to be predatory scum.
