Trump is falsely claiming DC crime is surging (it's at a 30-year low) to justify a federal police surge, threaten a takeover, and possibly pave the way for martial-law-style control.

Also, Hitler too herded the homeless into concentration camps. Now #PedoFührer is preparing to do the same thing.

Just one problem. Crime is down in DC.

This is a rogue administration.

The sycophantic nonsense and lies this amateurish administration constantly churns out to placate this needy, insecure man-child is so shameless.

So, since he doesn't need his salary, it's not a big deal that he says he won't take it. What a joke.

Virginia Giuffre’s brother: Calling it a hoax is a complete disgrace to everything that my sister has worked for, everything these survivors have worked for and continue to fight for… And that feels very uncompassionate coming from somebody that’s the leader of our country.

Jordy Meiselas: ICE didn't just lower the age requirement—they removed the age requirement. Now, at any age—you can go and join. They've riled up their base and have given them one lane to occupy: take out your anger, become an ICE agent, and chase down migrants. They are preying on people's hate.
