The homicide rate in Jackson, Mississippi is three times that of Chicago. The homicide rate of Memphis Tennessee is 2 1/2 times Chicago. Why isn’t Trump sending his troops into Mississippi or Tennessee? Because they have Republican governors and it won’t play well to his

One of the reasons we had a Revolution in 1776 was colonial resentment of British troops invading their homes, seizing men without warrants, and beating children (including future President Andrew Jackson) for the crime of saying bad things about King George.

Trump’s building a golf course in Qatar. He accepted a $400M luxury jet as a gift from Qatar. His son-in-law got a $1.5B investment from Qatar and other Middle Eastern countries. His top officials like Kash Patel and Pam Bondi worked for Qatar. And now this.

Inflation is up 3% year-over-year, core inflation also up 3%. Both are well above the Fed's target, and higher than what inflation was a year ago, when Trump was going on and on about high prices. But now 3% inflation is "really good," and Trump is lying about prices going down.

Breaking: Trump just banned states from being able to wipe medical debt from Americans’ credit reports. The Biden-Harris administration had moved to wipe medical debt from credit reports. Now this new rule will keep $220 billion in medical bills on Americans’ records.

These numbers can't be right. ICE has only booked ~300K arrests since January. If true, then it means ICE has arrested nearly twice as many people who have never even been accused of a crime as its data show. That'd make ICE look even worse, the opposite of its goal here.
