Black text on a white background
“More than 100 elected officials have joined me in calling on parking lot and garage owners across New York City: Don’t give ICE a place to operate. Don’t rent to them. Tell them they’re not welcome.

Last week, ICE agents shot Oscar Belgal in the neck in Marble Hill while his 5-year-old son sat in the car. They had been staging nearby in a private parking lot.

Our city laws keep ICE off public property. Now, we’re calling on private property owners to do the same. One garage on Morton Street already removed ICE vehicles after neighbors spoke out. Every owner has that power.”

Does arresting the wife of an enlisted man and mother of four US citizen children, a person who’s been here since she was 6 years old, make our country great again?

Hey man, when I called to schedule an MRI appointment at my local VA last week, they told me there were no openings until NOVEMBER. Maybe work on that before you start calling for more war with Iran. You can't even take care of the combat vets you have. Why are you trying to create new ones?

So Trump and the White House lied about which plane Trump was on flying out of Turkey, setting up journalists who thought they were on the same plane as the president to possibly be the target of an Iranian attack while he secretly departed on a different one. Words fail.

The White House said the president was aboard Air Force One as he left a NATO summit. Instead, his departure included an elaborate ruse that concealed his travel.

All the reactions to American food... I would like to remind everyone living here, our food is so good because of immigration. We started using flavors from other countries and mixing them. Just like our population. We'd still be eating beans on toast without immigrants.

Now ask how many women and children are being raped in the concentration camps. Think about it in the context of “law”. Isn’t that considered sex trafficking? Isn’t this illegal? Shouldn’t your state government be charging these law breakers for…you know, breaking the law? Why aren’t they?
