I understand Trump is in negotiations right now.

Apparently every President gets a remodeling budget for the White House, most spend it on beds and dishware and blinds or carpets and things of that mundane nature.

But Trump is negotiating to get a full-on McDonald's installed in the White House, complete with Drive-Thru.

Apparently the sticking point is that Trump insists that the McFlurry machine always works and McDonald's just cant acquiesce to that demand.

I have stumbled on a paper “A users guide to restructuring the world trade system “ submitted to Trump by Hudson Bay Capital. Can’t figure out how to post the damned thing - has anyone else seen it?

Why? Why should we make this clown our problem? He ran away to Canada to get out of trouble, trouble that HE caused, and now, trouble that he's not in anymore.

Drive him to the border, the worst one...Buffalo? And then unceremoniously dump the prick back into America.

Not. Our. Problem.

Maybe the plan is to help Canada reach the 2% of GDP military spending target by lowering our GDP.

I teach 5th grade at a Chicago Public School. We cannot let our students have outdoor recess because there is a possibility of ICE coming and seizing children.

I was reading about a pastor in NYC who has halted services and moved everything online fearing they would be raided, many of the congregation are undocumented. The rough part was how they were talking to all the kids and making sure the had a plan to call an uncle, auntie, or realtive if they found themselves alone if their parents were taken and deported.

A Texas teacher sparked backlash after calling for Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials to raid their school – claiming many teen pupils “don’t even speak English”.

The Fort Worth Independent School District is investigating the substitute teacher who was working at North Side High School after they allegedly posted a raft of inflammatory comments to X in the wake of Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown.

...

“Yall should come to Fort Worth, TX to Northside High School. I have many students who don’t even speak English and they are in 10th-11th grade,” the post read.

“They have to communicate through their iPhone translator with me. The [U.S. Department of Education] should totally overhaul our school system in Texas too.”

The suspect responded to an ICE enforcement update on X on Friday (X)
Trump signed a deluge of executive orders related to immigration due to an “unconscionable risk” to public safety and national security, a White House official said last Monday.
Apparently ICE has been showing up unannounced at schools across Illinois, as well.

How are the people once removed from "the greatest generation" so purposely oblivious towards all that their parents fought for?
