And remember, taxpayers are the ones who pay the settlements in these lawsuits, which ran over $200,000,000 for the NYPD just in the last year. I wonder if the costs came out of their own budget or retirement funds they might be a little more circumspect.

My kids know an American flag when they see one – but they don't yet know all that it represents. When they're old enough, here is what I'm going to tell them:

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

Undocumented immigrants pay almost $100 billion in taxes each year. The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes each year. Stop pretending that immigrants are the ones taking advantage of taxpayers.

Here are Trump's troops in the Border Patrol firing tear gas on US citizens in Los Angeles. Why is Border patrol operating in LA? (By U.S. law Border Patrol can only operate within 100 miles of border and LA is out of that range) Why aren't the California AG and DA's charging them with crimes?!

Pam Bondi is making a lot of claims about Garcia that he isn't being charged with. If he smuggled weapons and drugs, why isn't that charged? if he solicited explicit child videos - why isn't that charged either?

The government is returning Abrego Garcia to the US where he will face criminal charges. In other words, due process, including an opportunity to defend himself in court. abcnews.go.com/US/mistakenl...

Last year, Nike made $23 billion. Its founder is worth $35 billion. But Nike pays just dollars a day to the workers who make its products. Today I met Dinar, who sews 222 labels an hour onto Nike products. She is paid $202 a month. This is corporate greed at its worst.

The trump regime is imitating the Nazis in the 1930s. But half of the US being completely ignorant of world history, they are doing exactly what the majority of Germans did at that time... NOTHING ! Listen to Sawyer Hackett talk about what the US Gestapo is currently doing. #ICEisTrumpsGestapo
