A man is comes to the US fleeing war, makes his life here, becomes a citizen. Years pass, and armed paramilitary troops bash in his door and haul him, nearly naked, out of this house and into the freezing cold. For no good reason. Maybe, just maybe, it's ICE who are the "worst of the worst"

I genuinely don't understood how America took the emoluments clause -- the common-sense bar on a president using his powers to line his own pockets, a law children can understand -- and just said, nah, that doesn't apply for our Very Special Boy.

Wall Street has steadfastly ignored all of Trump’s dismantling of the world economic and political order through the first year of his return to power. Will it ignore this? I’m betting it will. German business and finance bent the knee to Nazi’s because they believed it would enrich them. Same now.

Gonna have to rename the Streisand Effect the Bari Weiss Effect

We evacuated our kids out of Minneapolis this weekend and my spouse reports that as she drove them out of town she saw "multiple freeway exits where people are being pulled over." It feels like the Twin Cities is being subjugated by a hostile occupying force.

I’m an Atheist. But I’m just profoundly appalled that Trump ordered a bombing on Christmas Day when we are not at war. Just ghoulish.

Because he believes he’s bigger than Jesus. How dare anyone upstage him.
