The same people who say Adriana Smith should stay hooked up to machines so a fetus can gestate inside her dead body for 7 months because “it’s a sacrifice a mother would make” can’t fathom a mother crossing the border with her children in hopes of providing a better life for them.

The GOP's media propaganda machine has done a number on the so-called 'straight news' outlets. They establish a daily narrative, and other media enthusiastically echoes it. There is no comparable media aligned with the left. Dems aren't silent, their voices are drowned out.
It's 2015. President Barack Obama has accepted a "sky palace" jumbo jet from the Qatari government, which he'll own after he leaves office. "Everybody relax," he says in an interview with the New York Times. Everyone does. The networks then televise the military parade in his honor on his birthday.

Two-thirds of voters at Indiana University Bloomington’s sole on-campus polling site used their university ID to vote last fall.

This week, the state banned students from using these IDs for voting.
Indiana Republicans Ban Student IDs for Voting - Bolts
The new restriction, paired with Indiana’s stringent voter ID rules, would make it much harder for many young people to vote in a state that already ranks near-last in turnout.

If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring *all* removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.

There is no reason for Democrats to support anyone Trump nominated...for any position. They should be using Mitch McConnell's tactics against the GOP, but expect to get credit for 'bipartisanship in a gov't led by a wannabe dictator.
Gen. Dan “Razin” Caine, whom President Donald Trump plucked from retirement — and relative obscurity — to become chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, was confirmed by the Senate early Friday.
Dan Caine confirmed by Senate to become Trump’s Joint Chiefs chairman
The vote caps an unusual nomination process that began with the abrupt dismissal of Caine’s predecessor several weeks ago.
