The lawmakers had met with ICE officials to ask about immigration policy and use of force.

Phang: The South Koreans are here to help build, to help train, to help get this thing up and running so 8,500 Americans can have jobs. But no — the Trump administration, the dumbasses with their heads so far up their asses when it comes to immigration, are just sitting there rounding people up…

Probably the most tragic part of Charlie Kirk's death is that Trump's name appears prominently and repeatedly in the Epstein files.

🚨 Fight hate mongering. White supremacism is white insecurity. See something, say something. Ignoring hate promotes supremacism. White people have a job to do: Stand up for those being shoved down. It is sick that this has to be written.
