@WhiteHouse Republicans say there’s no money for programs, but there’s no problem finding $400 million to upgrade a plane, 14 million to fuck up the reflecting pool, or a 150 billion to fund a war.
The extent of Trump's destruction of Washington, D.C., is truly stunning. It's the ultimate metaphor.

Todd Blanche told us he wasn’t releasing the files with torture and death. I want those to be released. Plus the 1700 photos I’d underage kids on the

🚨BREAKING: ICE and DHS lied about ANOTHER “weaponized vehicle” incident.
Earlier this week, ICE claimed that during a “targeted vehicle stop” in New Jersey, an “illegal alien” weaponized a vehicle against an ICE agent, striking the officer and causing the agent to fire their weapon.
ICE said the operation was a targeted arrest of Friedrich Castillo-Ormeno, a Peruvian immigrant, who is violating a final order of removal.
There’s just one problem…
Castillo-Ormeno had already self-deported THREE MONTHS earlier.
DHS had already verified his departure, and confirmed he was back in Peru, even paying him through the CBP Home program.
So, that means… ICE put out a statement saying they were conducting a “targeted vehicle stop” for a man the government, itself, had already confirmed was not in the country…
Then tried to paint him as a criminal, even though he had complied with his final removal order, and is no longer in the country.
But that’s only the first part of this issue…
If ICE agents were conducting a “targeted traffic stop to arrest Friedrich Castillo-Ormeno.”
When…
-Friedrich Castillo-Ormeno was not in the country.
-and the van was not registered to Friedrich Castillo-Ormeno.
Then why did agents surrounding a random van, on a public roadway, and demanding the driver roll down his window?
Because the Fourth Amendment exists…
And it’s becoming harder to ignore the patterns surrounding ICE agent’s use of deadly force…
The agents are usually targeting the wrong person… they aggressively surround them, and escalate before they’ve explained what’s happening.. causing them to attempt to flee.
Imagine being pulled over, surrounded by masked, armed agents, told to comply, threatened with having your window broken… all while still not being given a clear reason for the stop.
That’s a situation that causes panic… it causes fight-or-flight.
And it’s exactly why those constitutional limits exist in the first place.
So why aren’t we holding these agents accountable?
BREAKING on MS NOW:
The Trump Justice Department has just REFUSED to indicate in a sworn declaration that it's backing off the Trump slush fund — claiming to Judge Brinkema in the EDVA that Todd Blanche's in court testimony should suffice.
Yesterday the Obamas reminded us what a President and First Lady should be. The current White House slime seem even more appalling now, if that’s possible. How far we’ve fallen.

What is he doing in Seattle watching the World Cup? Shouldn't he be in Washington drinking a glass of reflecting pool water to prove how healthy it is?
Dana White released the actual invite list for Trump's birthday UFC night. Adam Sandler, Tom Brady, The Rock, Jason Statham, Jared Leto, Mario Lopez, Guy Ritchie. Every one of them said no. What was left standing in that arena was Mark Zuckerberg, a handful of Trump relatives, and Nate Bargatze doing his best with a room that didn't want to be there.
Three days later the Obama Foundation released its own list. Stevie Wonder. Bruce Springsteen. Bono. The Edge. Jennifer Hudson. John Legend. Eddie Vedder. Nobody had to twist an arm to get any of them on a plane to Chicago.
The presidency ends eventually. The ability to fill a room because people actually want to be there either survives that or it never existed in the first place.
A White House aide told Haberman and Swan last year that Trump was not going to fire Powell; he was just going to torture him.
“I want to bust his fucking balls, honestly,” Trump said of Powell during a July staff meeting, according to their new book. “What about that fucking building? Can we stop it? Can we stop construction. I just want to bust his fucking balls. Fuck him.”
It appears the paint or whatever the Trump regime used to cover the large "86 47" etched into the lawn near the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool has worn away, and the numbers are once again visible.

The Trump administration has forced the National Parks Service to remove any photos of Harriet Tubman from their website covering the Underground Railroad.
The GOP swears they’d “never cut” Social Security— Sen. Mike Lee is on tape saying he wants to pull it “up by the roots & get rid of it entirely.”
Believe their words—this has always been THE PLAN.
They’re stealing our MONEY.
VOTE—It’s our FUTURE! #HandsOffSocialSecurity
🚨UNBELIEVABLE: As millions of Americans are STRUGGLING, Trump has the audacity to brag about how luxurious his PLANE is:
“This plane was transformed into a flying White House at a level of luxury that nobody's ever seen before.”
This is a winning midterm ad for Democrats.
i don't know how you're not supposed to feel sick to your stomach over the fact that the police rammed his van twice, shot at it 27 times, and watched as he burned and bled to death because they thought two black men were inside.
they killed a white navy vet and lied about it.
