IN CONTEMPT! (I personally verified this is indeed an actual post from the official White House account on X.) Trump has nothing but contempt for the Constitution, the Courts, Congress, Civil Rights, the Rule of Law or any American not loyal to him. He will destroy everything if we let him.

Whew! Sen Chuck Grassley’s town hall should be a wake-up call for Trump & Republicans. Voters want Kilmar García brought home — and they’re pissed Trump’s thumbing his nose at a Supreme Court ruling. This isn’t “tough on crime,” it’s lawless, un-American trash — and folks know it. This is Iowa!

Let’s hope others follow suit.

The intermingling of fascist paramilitary and propaganda groups with the federal government is a literal hallmark of fascism. Do with that information what you will and really sit with what it means that a stochastic terrorist is now essentially deputized by the state to do as she pleases.
