Where did they find anyone who would say that Trump would be disciplined?
Where did they find that clown who said Trump is restoring the Presidency to the role that the Founders intended?
Ron Johnson is an insufferable tool.
Regarding Minnesota: Given local law enforcement backing away from its responsibility to keep the peace while ICE does its job, it should come as no surprise how things have unraveled. This is 100% the fault of Minnesota political executives (the governor and city mayors).
Carla Sands is conspicuous in this group for having a blinkered view of global politics.
Any apologist for ICE in the current circumstances necessarily invites investigation. And investigation will follow.
We'll all miss the weekend team, consistent amazing reporting always :(
Tell me again: WHY is deporting illegal aliens back to their home countries a problem? How do people possibly compare this to Nazi deportations of Jews to slaughterhouses in Poland during the Holocaust? THERE IS NO COMPARISON just as there is no comparison between what happened to George Floyd and what happened to the nutjob shot in Minnesota while trying to run over an ICE cop.
It is noteworthy that, for Trump’s supporters, Russia is one of America's great enemies vis-à-vis Venezuela but not vis-à-vis Ukraine. The "Donroe" Doctrine is classic doublethink.
The extracts of Trump speaking are shocking. He is scarcely coherent.
Thank you for interviewing MTG and especially for pressing her on her actions that have contributed to the culture of political violence. Would that you had also asked her about her shameful treatment of David Hogg.
please find guests who can pronounce names correctly.
Creepy to hear calls for appeasement in a thick Russian accent
how about sluts stop fucking?
