Sorry bro, but it’s pretty hard to have a baby in 10 minutes — not sure you can fly in labor and you definitely can’t swim across the Rio Grande so what exactly is your point?

This you?
The Supreme Court's ruling on birthright citizenship is a legal abomination. But it's just more evidence that Congress and multiple presidents, in abdicating their duty on immigration for decades, have screwed America irredeemably. We're going live now: youtube.com/watch?v=2Hrclczm…

They literally met in the Situation Room to come up with a defense for the President of the United States raping children.

The fact that MAGA Republicans are more offended by vegans than pedophiles and rapists is completely fucking insane.

Wow Scott Jennings blows up at Adam Mockler: “Get your fucking hand out of my face” Mockler: We all know that Scott Jennings is more than happy to defend a war with a country that starts with letters Ira that we are currently failing that is going to put us trillions and trillions of dollars more in debt. I was only a few years old while you were in the administration defending prior endless wars.

MAGA authoritarianism is pretending the president is “joking” when he makes death threats, but comedians are somehow “shaping public policy” when they make jokes.

Look at these people. They are all smirking. These are not "I just survived a mass shooting" smirks. These smirks tell a completely different story.

Hearing erika kirk say 'I just want to go home' doesn't move me because those were likely the last words of hundreds of school children who never made it home because unlike her they didn't have a security detail.

O’Donnell: “Is there’s something you as president can do about political violence.” Trump: “I do think the hate speech of the Democrats is very dangerous.” ————————————————— Trump to Democratic governors, “I wish them only the worst. May they rot in hell..” “Merry Christmas to all, including the radical left scum that is doing everything to destroy our country.” Trump called protesters “animals”and “enemies.” Trump called immigrants “not people,” “snakes” and “garbage.” “The radical left is responsible for all the terrorism.” Trump called for execution level punishment of his political opponents. Oh and let’s not forget him depicting the Obama’s as apes. Sadly, these are only a few of Trump’s hateful, politically violent rhetoric

As someone who is in the courtroom for nearly every argument, this is false.
There’s literally a chair set up at SCOTUS for our presidents to sit in for oral argument. Your separation of powers nonsense is more imitation pearl-clutching hauteur.

After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today. I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby. It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC. May God bless America.

ICE did it again - released a detainee far from her home without notifying her family. Three days after having an ankle monitor put on by ICE, 31 year old Daphy Michel was found unresponsive at a bus station. She died later that day. Daphy was seeking asylum in the US. Her brother lives in the US and has TPS status. She had a hearing scheduled for April on her immigration case. Her brother was waiting to hear when she would be released so he could bring her home. ICE hasn’t answered questions from Pittsburgh’s Action News 4 about when Daphy arrived at the ERO Pittsburgh office, when she received the ankle monitor, how long she was in custody, and where & when she was released.
Haitian immigrant last seen in ICE custody—found dead on the street 3 days later. Agents drove her 1 hour away from home for processing—then released without notifying her family. Her body was found near a bus stop. Police say she had "significant mental health episode" that landed her in county jail. But ICE picked her up after judge dismissed all charges and drove her 1 hour away to Pittsburgh. "Told her brother charges were dismissed on Thursday. She doesn't come out on Friday. He gets a call on Monday that she's dead," lawyer explained. "It seems perfectly reasonable if you're going to take someone all the way up here and that far out of their element—you could just as easily have driven them back." Daphy Michel, only 31 years old, was living and working in Penny under Temporary Protected Status as a Haitian refugee.
