2/ Federal agents have detained at least 70 children and teens who are American citizens. Some were handcuffed or zip-tied. In one instance, a 15-year-old with disabilities was handcuffed outside a school in Los Angeles when agents mistook him for an alleged gang member.

Just a reminder: Tillis persuaded the woman Hegseth allegedly raped to come forward with her story, and told her that if she did, it would sink the nomination. She did. At great risk to herself. Tillis then cast the deciding vote for Hegseth. Because he’s a goddamned coward.

Yesterday Tillis made a comment about martyrdom, specifically in reference to colleagues who won’t go against Trump. Same day, Pope Leo commented on martyrdom

60minutes © 1d
In his book, Sen. Thom Tillis writes that at least 30 of his Republican Senate colleagues have privately expressed reservations about many of President Trump's actions, but are afraid to break with him publicly.
"They don't want to bear the weight of the president. I get that," explains Sen. Thom Tillis. "You're up for re-election? He'll target you in a primary."
"You know what all martyrs have in common?
They're dead," he adds.

Y’all, Catholics don’t applaud in church. Ever. This is a thing. You don’t have to like the church or organized religion. You do need to understand that up until the 90s and the US church pivot to abortion as a primary issue, the Catholic Church has long been a powerhouse in immigrant communities

This is being passed around as a total misrepresentation of what he said. Trump was saying - as he often does - that costs for Americans are a small price to pay for preventing Iran from getting nuclear missiles. He was saying ‘let them take out LA or SD’ as an example of what could happen then…

Trump: "Annie 'Trannie' Andrews is running against our wonderful Darline Graham for the Senate in South Carolina ... Trannie is not for South Carolina, and South Carolina must show, in the upcoming Election, that it is not for her."

Annie “Trannie” Andrews is running against our wonderful Darline Graham for the Senate in South Carolina. For years my dear friend Lindsey would say that, “Darline is the finest, most reliable, and one of the smartest people I have ever known.” He would then always add, “Also, the most loyal!” Oftentimes I would be upset with Lindsey for saying this, because I thought I had all of those qualities. In any event, Darline is a High Quality person, maybe the Highest, and Annie Trannie is not, in particular, as it pertains to representing the Values of the Great People of South Carolina — She is in favor of Transgender for Everyone, Open Borders, Defunding the Police, High Taxes, a Weak Military, and will absolutely fight to take your guns away — In other words, she is against our Great Second Amendment! Trannie is not for South Carolina, and South Carolina must show, in the upcoming Election, that it is not for her. VOTE FOR DARLINE GRAHAM — SHE HAS MY COMPLETE AND TOTAL ENDORSEMENT, AND WILL NOT LET YOU DOWN! President DONALD J. TRUMP
