Just want to take a moment to shout out the international reporters helping us get the real story out. When an 80-year-old veteran with a walker is hauled off with his hands zip-tied behind his back, and the media spins it as a “threatening breach” of a police barricade

I would like to remind everyone that crossing the border illegally into the United States is a misdemeanor, not a felony offense or criminal. It's like when you get a simple speeding ticket... you don't go to jail and get charged with a felony. Again, it is a misdemeanor.

It astounds me that so many rich people have such an outsized aversion to paying taxes and will acquiesce to so much societal harm in that pursuit when the payment would have negligible impact to them. I understand human behavior and I understand desire for wealth. But come on.

Trillions of $$$ in tax cuts for the ultra-rich would become undetectable to the naked eye under a GOP budget accounting scheme proposed today. "Democrats & poor people won't be able to see anything," Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., crowed. "Bippity boppity boo, and it's invisible, just like that!"
