I'm not going to stop saying this. We need to stop calling it "deporting." It may not always be fair or humane, but deportation has a process. And it means you're sent back to where you came from. These people are being trafficked and sold to slave prisons. Not deported.

It’s sounding more and more to me like part of the tariff reasoning is that we want to get in position to be able to launch a major war (Iran? China?) and want to be able to manufacture our own wartime goods. “National Security” keeps coming up

One thing the Democrats can do (and don't seem to be doing) is coordinate on/publish a 'here is what we we will do to reverse Trump' set of proposed measures. Republicans made it clear that they would overturn JCPOA, damaging its credibility from outset. Dems should do same for the shitty stuff.

Trump: "An old fashioned term that we use -- groceries. I used it on the campaign. It's such an old fashioned term, but a beautiful term. Groceries. It says a bag with different things in it."

Elon ruined his reputation and the reputation of his businesses for 3 months in the Trump administration. His biggest accomplishments were making everyone hate him and getting a liberal judge elected in Wisconsin

The only good thing this administration is actually effective at is showing how bad, ineffective, and unpopular the far-right agenda is. Most people are quickly growing to hate the state of the country brought on by the republican authoritarian agenda. Dissatisfaction will grow as things get worse

These should be reported as “disappeared” or “kidnapped”, not “arrested” or “detained” like NBC and other news outlets use. These students came here following the legal immigration process and there are no charges against them
