BREAKING: Republicans JUST blocked Democrats' bill that would have ENDED Trump's tariffs on Canada and his ability to keep starting these trade wars.
This would have saved Americans THOUSANDS of dollars.
But Republicans chose once again to put Trump's approval over the American people.

Even though an immigration judge found it likely José Serrano would be tortured, the US deported him in a hasty process that took a single day. An excellent demonstration of how the immigration process
U.S. Fast-Tracked Deportation of Ecuadorean Politician Despite Torture Fears

What makes this obscene is the building Trump's threatening to demolish if he doesn't get his way, is a *memorial* to a loved president who served his country and was assassinated while in office (two things Donald is yet to accomplish). It is like Trump threatening to jackhammer JFK's gravestone.

We had thought the “safety issues” at the Kennedy Center were caused by the Trump administration. It appears that might be the case. In a sworn declaration filed today, a legal observer said she witnessed a forklift carrying fencing drive to the north
