1. It was not an accident.
2. It was not a staffer.
3. While the president may have dementia his racism is not due to dementia.
4. He isn’t sorry. He means every racist thought he shares.
5. His base agrees with him.
6. He will do it again.
7. No one in power will hold him accountable.

Spanberger is a moderate Democrat who used to work for the C.I.-fucking-A. It should put the actions of Schumer and Jeffries into perspective for everyone. Are they Republicans? Because they sure act like it.

They need to get the fuck out.

The US immigrant population generated more in taxes than they received in benefits from all levels of government every year from 1994 to 2023.

There is no reforming ICE or Chuck Schumer, both need to be defunded for the safety of the American people.

Or why they didn’t rig 2020 to give them a large enough Senate margin so that Joe Manchin would not wind up as the most powerful man in the party
