Was watching Morning Joe to see what Leibovich says about his hit piece on the Dems and came across this...yes, it's a pro-ICE ad on MSNOW and yes, we are thoroughly cooked. Group is "American Soverignity," spend is $470k so far, mostly in Senate battlegrounds. π€¬π€¬π€¬
"But with Republicans confronting difficult midterm election(s), G.O.P. proponents... are now openly saying they cannot maintain control of Congress if they fail to enact the bill." Let me fix this: "They cannot maintain control of Congress if they don't suppress MILLIONS OF VALID VOTES."
Well, that didn't take long. They went with option one: do the same thing, but use a different legal excuse. This will set up another year of legal wrangling before SCOTUS says "no" again (probably). But, until then, the tariffs will stick. Also: called it.

Lolololol One thing others who are not yet as awake as us need to get is that islamists players same gaslighting game Thomas Jefferson played with the Brits They accuse the other of what they are guilty of knowing full well what they are doing is wrong Its projection 101 to confuse & disorient
I find it cute when they think United Nations is a reliable source United Nations has been corrupt for decades along with oxfam and amnesty international and they are all now coming out with how they lied and kicked out those who spoke truth that there was no genocide
Remember this: conventional Democrats only listen to polls that are convenient to their world view and that of their funders. That's why we are still sending money to Israel for genocide. it's why we are funding concentration camps. It's why Chuck Schumer can't get his head out of his a**.
Thanks to Joe Biden, not only are 10% of federal judges Black, more than a third of all federal judges are diverse. Despite the right wing's best efforts and even though we have a long way to go the federal judiciary represents the demographic makeup of the US better than any other institution.
Do you ever think of the mostly Black families that were terrorized when DHS landed helicopters on the roof like they were in Baghdad (which in itself was questionable), and put little kids out in the snow in undies and zip ties? Do you ever wonder what happened to people who were sent to CECOT?
This is comedian Ben Palmer. He set up a fake ICE tip line. Watch this video of a kindergarten teacher trying to deport an immigrant family who donβt look like they belong in her community. A KINDERGARTEN teacher. Evil is truly banal. #MomSky www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8xNTpeg/

I really can't get this out of my head: "I can do anything I want. I can destroy the country." Only deranged power-mongers say this kind of thing. Only people leading a GOP that has mildewed from the inside out for 50 years. This, alone, should be impeachable. And no, it's not "just joking."
