An America destroyed by madness was on full display after the chaos of an assassination attempt at the WCHA dinner, in a nation so numb to gun violence and so drunk on corruption that Trump and journalists wanted to party on Gunfire of the Vanities: My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/trum...

Trump: I'm going to destroy an entire civilization. We're going to keep killing people in boats. Senator Kelly should be executed. ICE protesters are domestic terrorists. Immigrants are vermin. Raskin: Donald Trump is bad for this country. Bash: Do you regret your heated rhetoric, Rep. Raskin?

I doubt that Pope Leo XIV will lose any sleep over this, before he begins his pilgrimage to Africa tomorrow. But the rest of us should. Because it is unhinged, uncharitable and unchristian. Is there no bottom to this moral squalor?

Another classic post-Homan day where around school dismissal time we get a flurry of ICE vehicles all across our neighborhoods. Today one vehicle led an observer to their own home and pointed at it. This is a sick game to them, but we won’t be intimidated and we won’t stop until DHS is abolished.

In SLP this AM, near Mtka blvd and France, there was a truck, with what can only be described as surveillance gear, parked on the wrong side of the street. The surveillance gear was a bit weird but spooky too. Captured on phone and disseminated.

Every American to the left of Susan Collins is somewhat responsible for the murder of Charlie Kirk, but it’s unclear if the President is responsible for the video he posted.

Wow. The front page of tomorrow’s Charlie Hebdo magazine in France.
Underneath the name Charlie Hebdo is a pile of bloodied dead bodies representing US citizens killed by ICE. The pile of bodies are collected in one corner to represent the stars of the US flag and the streaks of blood caused by them being dragged across the ground form the red and white stripes. In the foreground an armed skinhead officer with an ICE vest is dragging his latest victim with multiple gunshots to join the pile. The world is watching in horror.
