She can have issues all she wants but running for public office and wanting to represent people opens the book on your life as far as I'm concerned. People want to know who is representing them and what they truly stand for. Not what they say they stand for. If they don't like it, don't run for office. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But that's not what you're saying. You are claiming that the Don is a crusading hero trying to drain the swamp for the benefit of all Americans. My response to that is incredulity at your delusion.

Congress hasn’t authorized any of this. What are you effing talking about??? Congress is empowed with establishing the rules and process for immigration. The executive branch is in charge of enforcing the rules. That is what is happening. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You're so gullible and ignorant you don't even realize you're alienating people that might have some common ground with you. I pity you. What are you going to do when all of the Trump lies come crashing down and you actually have to come to grips with how badly you've been duped? You aren't equipped for it and the ongoing, ever-increasing derangement you exhibit is going to manifest itself in bad ways. Find a good mental health provider. Soon.

What’s worse they are assaulting, arresting, detaining, & deporting even American citizens. Everything about this is a violation of congressional & constitutional order. The saddest thing to me, aside from the brutality, is the disregard & disrespect for American promises, our nation’s word & assurances to people who believed in the American dream. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Asylum seeking is a loophole in our immigration policy which was for extremely rare cases. The Biden administration used that and simply turned every illegal immigrant into asylum seekers and opened the flood gate to tens of millions of immigrants who illegally entered during those four years. Trump is trying to rectify that unlawfulness. Fuk you and your disingenuius debating. You know damn well what went on during the Biden years. I am so sick of the total BS of the brainwashed TDS crowd. And I don't even favor a lot of what is going on, but your characterization is so effing dishonest.

SaintsInDome2006 611 Posted 17 hours ago CNN’s chief has Washington talking about his private meeting at the White House—following which he urged the network to ease up on coverage of Trump’s East Room demolition, Status has learned. >On Wednesday, as Donald Trump tore down the East Wing to build his ballroom, the White Househad a visitor who raised eyebrows across Washington. CNN chief Mark Thompson made a rare appearance at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., according to multiple people familiar with the matter. The meeting was ostensibly about introducing to the administration the network’s new direct-to-consumer streaming product launching next week, laying the groundwork for officials to appear on CNN, a person familiar with the matter told Status. But given the swirl of speculation surrounding the cable network, with parent company Warner Bros. Discovery having publicly put itself up for auction, the question of Donald Trump’s animosity toward CNN, and how that might manifest itself in the process, is very much on people’s minds. … Still, staffers were taken aback the next morning, when Thompson suggested during the daily network editorial call that it should ease up on covering Trump’s East Wing demolition, claiming that their viewership isn’t all that interested in the story, according to two people familiar with the matter. The comment struck many as bizarre coming from Thompson, who despite carrying the editor in chief title generally tends not to wade too much into the minutiae of the network’s editorial process. “There is zero truth to this conjecture,” a CNN spokesperson told Status in a statement after this story was published. The guidance suggested Thompson was trying to soften CNN’s coverage of Trump on an issue the administration has sought to keep out of public view as polls show most Americans disapprove of the action. Whether or not the East Wing project was among the topics of conversation during Thompson’s White House meeting, the timing felt suspicious, with staffers wondering what coverage might be discouraged next. A network spokesperson declined to comment on the subject matter of the visit. …<< Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And as far as the rest of the world, different problems often times require different solutions in different times. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
