It is estimated that there are 14,000 undocumented immigrants in the US convicted of violent felonies.

In June alone, there were nearly 35,000 ICE arrests.

When they tell you they are detaining "the worst of the worst", they are lying.

I suspect Trump has over the years developed a highly effective extortion and blackmail racket that is managing to subdue GOP congresspersons and prevent them from acting against him. This, in turn, suggests how corrupt these legislators are.

Is there any serious consideration that Putin is planning to attack another country, as Zelensky has alleged?

I've been saying this since he was reelected. He and his henchmen and -women know they've gone too far and can't afford to lose power or they'll be convicted. There will be efforts to scuttle the midterms. Trump won't quit until he dies or is granted immunity. It's Mussolini and Hitler in America.

Mass shootings have become so routine that the immediate effort to identify the shooter's politics has become something of a parlor game. American society is ill.

In Trump's unhinged UN speech this week, he expressed support for Ukraine and said he believes Ukraine can win back all of its territory

In reality, the US is doing LESS to support Ukraine than Europe is

26,000 YouTube views for Sinclair’s Charlie Kirk tribute special.

Just for comparison, Jimmy Kimmel’s monologue on any average Wednesday will get between two and four MILLION YouTube views.

Right wing culture is fringe stuff. It is not American culture by any stretch.

Everything about this headline is hilarious. And the YouTube views are a reflection of how wildly the right has overblown the number of people paying attention.

On Nicole's show today the panel said you will never win with Trump. No matter what you give him he will want more, take more. He's suing Murdoch who put Trump in office!

5 minutes later this shows up on Huffpost. FCC chairman is now going after The Five on ABC. Yes ABC who just fired Kimmel.
