"When you have a president who's running the country like a mob boss instead of a government, who's running the government for himself, of himself, and by himself, & for his cronies, instead of the people, by the people, and for the people, there's only one solution, & that's impeachment & removal."

I used to write the WaPo editorials on US-Africa policy, as well on as human rights and politics on the continent.

To describe hundreds of thousands of deaths on the continent as “messy” is an absolute abomination.

A woman in a light purple wig sits in passenger seat of zamboni, holding a banner which states "no ICE, no more, no kings, no fear" in same font and colors as Minnesota Frost team iconography.

Absolute Queen behavior from the Zamboni Rider today at the Minnesota Frost game.
No ICE

Matt Murray and Will Lewis weren't speaking to each other. How dysfunctional is that? But then, neither were Fred Ryan and Marty Baron, and Fred Ryan and Sally Buzbee, and Sally Buzbee and Will Lewis. It has been a managerial clown show for YEARS. What does that say about Bezos?

Not sure who needs to hear this but the voter fraud rate is a mere 0.000003%. Anyone telling you otherwise is making shit up so they can take away your right to vote.

ICE and CBP agents seem to enjoy gratuitously breaking glass—from car windows to store fronts to homes. It’s an expression of unchecked power and dominance: “We’re in charge. We break and shatter what we want.”

And nights of broken glass have been a harbinger of worse to come.

Seeing that photo of Obama putting the Medal of Freedom on Tom Homan circulate again. It's fake. Homan did get a civil service award during the Obama administration, but it wasn't the Medal of Freedom, it wasn't a medal (it was a certificate), and Obama didn't present it to him in person.

ICE agents shot people during the Obama administration. ICE was involved in at least 59 shootings, resulting in 24 injuries and 23 deaths across 26 states 

The difference isn’t that it didn’t happen- it’s that it didn’t get the same national attention. Manufactured outrage.

This never happened. This is a fabricated assertion. I’ve covered immigration for decades and covered Obama critically. If ICE shot at killed 23 people across 26 states there would have been outrage. You just made this up.

Reminder that, as of the latest reports, Liam Ramos is still in prison in Texas - now for 5 days.

His parents are legal asylum seekers with no criminal record.
