In a sane world, the decision by Rufo, Vance, & co. to slander and slap a target on the traumatized, hardworking immigrants who revitalized a rust belt city -- and who *were invited* to that city -- would be a stain on their careers that they never live down.

They should be reminded of it. Often.

Well, the uniforms don't help. But neither do the gear & weapons designed for intensive warfare, when confronting citizens, residents, and peaceful protesters

They are waging a thinly veiled civil war.

To be perfectly honest, a Tribune endorsement can only push me away from a candidate. They have quite a history...

Trump and others trying to push a movement to deny the legitimate existence (let alone medical care) of many people. Anyone who thinks they'll stop at transgender folks may be in for some surprises

Is there even an argument to be had?
$$ is, for Trump and many others, the scorecard they use to say who is "better"
I also suspect the payments will essentially go to a slush fund that Trump directly or indirectly controls

Unbelievable. The arrogance of these entitled men (I was gonna say billionaires, but many others "in the files" aren't).

Remember, Trump *wanted* to allow the J6 rioters to be able to carry firearms.
Trump encourages violence from HIS supporters, and then his side pretends that innocent bystanders are "domestic terrorists"

Also:
No media outlet should give any credence to anything a DHS lawyer - or any Trump admin official - says. Period.
They have been proven liars...

Huh, funny, cuz you just gave many times that to ICE & other DHS goons.
And Trump will end up spending at least $1B on the ballroom, another billion on the arch if he gets away with it. And sooooo much more

Are you suggesting they follow the constitution? How radical!!

Black History Month is a time to recognize the lived, shared experience of all Black folks who have fundamentally shaped, challenged, and ultimately strengthened America. Itโ€™s about taking an unvarnished look at the past so that we can create a better future.

I think #4 was key there. The old Russian trick of poisoning intel (wonder how/why Trump & co are so ready to do that?)

True, but keep in mind only certain academics. Most institutions would have been glad to take his money, sure. But only the worst would fly to his island and/or gloss over his crimes.
(As a scientist who could always use more funding, I just can't imagine...)

The arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are a test for every MSM member with a platform. If you are not voicing your outrage at this blatant violation of the First Amendment, you are utterly discredited as a journalist.

Exactly right. They go around tear-gassing kids and abducting people, then instigate fights with protesters, even murder them. When ACTUALLY patriotic Americans protest, ICE and DHS call them "terrorists".
If videoing you terrorizes you, ICE, you must be doing something very wrong

There are days where it feels like Putin has won. He's won at destroying the United States from within, and greedy, corrupt politicians gleefully helped him get there.

Tell me I'm wrong, and he will fail.
