‘Hello from my Black job’: Dems strike back after Trump debate remark
Democratic politicians took to social media to condemn and question former president Donald Trump’s remark that undocumented immigrants are “taking Black jobs.”Lori Rozsa (The Washington Post)
I don’t understand the conservative impulse to just grind the poor down to dust.
People have limits and our country is awash with guns. The elite _should_ be scared of a population with nothing to lose.
Trump's fact-free claims endure absolutely no fact-checking from these moderators.
Abysmal moderation.
I can’t stand the sound of Trumps voice and my mind was made up in 2016 that he should never be near power. So I’m not watching the debates. But I’m really happy with what I’m reading on here about our current president’s performance. Great shit.
I’m also terrified about what the fascists are going to do to the environment, my friends, my wife, and my family when they win.
Fuck everyone who downplayed 1/6. These fascists should have been drummed out of society after that.
The 5 years with the lowest homicide rates in the past 50 years all came under President Obama (2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2014).
Under President Biden, 2024 is also on track to have the one of the lowest homicide rates in the past 50 years.
