Maybe...but some of them are moving to Europe and Canada. They are being welcomed. Universities are happy to have them. It has created a hole in our research that will only get worse as long as he remains in office.

Trump broke Iran He needs to own it. He needs to fix it. I believe he has embezzled enough money from American tax payers to cover the cost. He needs to pay for it.

I would bet that hundreds, possibly thousands, of Americans have been killed already. We will never be informed about any of it.

Trump on service members getting killed in his war: “That’s the way it is.”

Trump when his country called for him to serve: I have bone spurs.

Trump’s sons: We’re too busy making billions off daddy’s presidency in the Middle East to waste time as a sucker and loser.

The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M to detain 4k people. Of those- only 30 were accused of violent crimes.

$9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst".

Gallego: "They're going and racially profiling people and rounding up Americans until they can prove their citizenship. That money came from kicking millions and millions of Americans off Medicaid. It was the same bill. They cut Medicaid to expand ICE."
