While people trying to make a better life for their families are to be packed into warehouses and denied access to lawyers, the human traffickers who raped children are looking forward to attending galas at Trump's ballroom. www.inquirer.com/opinion/ice-...
It's weird, Klein and Levin are totally different names, they have nothing in co—
Oh.
So those 300 or so @washingtonpost.com staffers that #Bezos fired?
He could have paid all their salaries for about another two years with what he spent on bribing Trump with the #Melania movie.
(And about 10 more if he sold his yacht.)
Per @mcsweeneys.net, ICE is nothing like Hitler's Brownshirts, because the Brownshirts identified themselves.
It's kind of true.
But ICE is quite like Mussolini's Blackshirts, since many of them started off in a violent wing of the fascist party and then were made official.

"All we're asking for is to get Greenland, including right, title and ownership, because you need the ownership to defend it."

Yes. Everything Trump does is a flex. Sometimes it's also a grift, or a sop for his base, or a service to his various puppet-masters.
But everything is a flex — and the crazier and stupider it is, the more of a flex it is.

I'm still struggling to understand: Mayor Parker originally said that the added weekly pickup in South Philadelphia and Center City wouldn't take away from other work.
