These people had protected status. They lived here legally. They worked, they paid taxes. They made lives. Raised families.

Now we’ve dehumanized them. Ripped away that protection and told them to get out.

This is a stain on the soul of this Nation.

There is no question that Jamieson Greer is the worst USTR in history. Just as Hegseth is the worst SecDed. Just as RFK, Jr is the worst HHS Sec.Just as Rubio is the worst Sec State. Just as Trump is the worst president. These are indisputable facts and it’s not close.

Flock has told the public for years that its technology “cannot recognize, identify, or track individuals.”

New in PN: Moderate Democrats have a choice to make

"They can spend the next three months reinforcing Republican messaging about their party & making it less likely Dems take power. Or they can put the 'battle for the soul of the party' off for a while and do what they can to help their party win."

Stephen Miller said just the other day that all asylum claims are "fake." A couple deported from the U.S. to Guatemala were gagged, bound, and shot dead. Their 14-month old found crying next to their mother's body.

People like Miller don't care though because this is the point: ethnic cleansing.

So it seems kinda problematic that:

— Iran is circulating at least 3 different versions of this peace deal.

—The US can’t seem to cough up even one version, even though it’s supposedly just 1.5 pages long.

— The architects of the deal are Witkoff and Kushner.

Any post-mortem or autopsy that doesn’t highlight how the far-right invested $1.2B dollars on youth persuasion is missing the mark.

They saturated online spaces and convinced young voters Trump would make things cheaper — and swung the 18-29 demo 20-points right.
