Brooke Rollins on farm laborers: "There will be no amnesty. The mass deportations continue, but in a strategic way. And we move the workforce toward automation and 100% American participation, which with 34 million able-bodied on Medicaid we should be able to do fairly quickly."

It's not really deportation if people are sent to countries where they never lived. It's a human trafficking ring.

The GOP just passed a bill to add almost a trillion dollars to our annual deficit every single year going forward.
And they were told the bill would do this. They all voted Yes to this.

Warnock: You literally have, in real time, the leader of another nation-state—in this case, South Africa—there to talk to him about trade, and he’s saying, “Sorry, Mr. President, we don’t have a plane to offer you.” And you see why we have an Emoluments Clause in the first place.

An explicit plan to abuse prosecutorial powers to smear Trump's opponents. A profound threat to democracy and the rule of law.

Hello, in case you were wondering about this: because false positives are so common and prostate cancers tend to grow very slowly, doctors do not usually recommend prostate cancer screening for men over 70.

Hurricane season starts June 1 and if you live in a Gulf state, you need to watch this. It’s worse than you might think.
The few employees still left at FEMA admit: they are not prepared. Not enough staff. Not enough supplies. Not enough leadership. Plan accordingly.

Rafael Cruz was born in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. His father, Rafael Bienvenido Cruz, is a Cuban immigrant who married American Eleanor Darragh.
The guy Trump called an “anchor baby” and who is only American because his mother was American, thinks birthright citizenship is a terrible policy.

Warning: threats & vile language. This is the 2nd time Rep Eric Swalwell got death threats from the same person. His reply: Recognize this voice? He thinks he can scare us. He can’t.
The blame is on Trump—his hateful rhetoric makes any damn fool think they can threaten a Rep & his kids. Pure evil.

The same day Moody’s downgraded the U.S. credit rating, citing rising debt & exploding deficits, Republicans tried to ram through permanent tax cuts for billionaires, which would add $trillions more to the deficit.

Oh.
Moody’s downgraded our credit rating for the first time in U.S. history.
We went from a AAA to AA1 rating.
The company cited rising government debt and persistent fiscal deficits.
Yet Republicans and Donald Trump want to raise the debt.
