"ThEyRe FlYiNg MeXiCaN FlAgS In ThE StREeTs" Give me a break Police were beat with American flags on January 6th Ohh not to mention the confederate flag being waved in the rotunda

Reminder that California subsidizes red states.

Andry Hernandez Romero — a gay asylum seeker, makeup artist, and survivor of political violence — trusted the U.S. asylum system. But, he was deported to a mega-prison in El Salvador. No trial. No hearing. No justice. #DisappearedInAmerica #AbductedByTrump

Good for them!

Rep. Julie Johnson to Noem: "Are you aware that ICE agent jackets are available on Etsy for $20? Anybody can throw a mask on and run around and terrorize people of color without any regard for the law because your agency does not have proper protocols to make sure your agents are clearly identified"

Hey siri: who was president when Covid started?

Crickets from fiscal conservatives.

If South Africa is a sovereign nation, how are we able to send our own planes we paid for to transport white Afrikaners to the U.S., but simultaneously unable to send a plane to return Abrego Garcia et al?
