Trump's new motto: "Make Me"

If he didn't give any details, then as responsible journalists, you should NOT lead with "The U.S. and China have signed an agreement..."
Your headline should read: "Presenting no evidence, Trump again claims deal with China..."

This request from DHS is an admission that they would FAIL any inspection that came unannounced. Inspections are pointless if they're announced three days in advance. Congress needs to fail the facility and start the official proceedings to shut it down.

Just the joyful sight we needed right now! Thank you for sharing this! Best wishes to the Birthday Girl, and congratulations to Gus!

You're indisputably correct in saying, "In no way should he be confirmed to the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit." Nevertheless, he most certainly WILL be confirmed. There's nothing we can do at this point to restore the democracy we once had, flawed as it may have been.

There's no point in doing an inspection if ICE gets three days to stage it.

Very likely.

Too bad we didn't understand this in 1861, when we could have celebrated the formation of the Confederacy as a separate, sovereign nation instead of bringing them back into the Union. We could have forced an end to slavery via a trade embargo, which Europe surely would have joined.

The Democrats who control the WI Supreme Court just green-lit a gerrymandered map that heavily favors Republicans. Meanwhile in D.C., 128 House Democrats just voted with the Republicans NOT to impeach Trump. We are absolutely DONE as a country.

When they are denied access, they should write up the visit with a grade of "F" for every single category of the inspection. The very act of blocking oversight is an admission by the facility operators that they would have failed the inspection. There can be NO other explanation.

Oopsie! With all due respect, you've made a slight mistake. The GOP principle has always been "Republican states' rights."
(The "Republican" is silent, so that's an easy mistake to make. Don't beat yourself up.)

Impeachment is not something you push because you want an easy win. It is what you push because there is a fascist, rapist, insurrectionist destroying our government and he needs to be removed from office.
Anyone who doesn't think the same needs to get out of the way and fast.

Thank you! My mind was stuck on "Internet Protocol." 😊

The questioner should respond: "You could have an infinite number of reasons for being here, and furthermore, it's beside the point. You have expressed your disdain for NATO for years, so we have a right — and a need — to get you on record about your support.

The Dem party establishment is SO determined to block progressives that I would not be a BIT surprised if they have Cuomo run as a third-party candidate in the general election in order to throw the race to the Republican candidate.
