You look illegal.

Here goes...
1. 1. Multiple men have been arrested in at least three states since Trump’s inauguration for allegedly posing as immigration enforcement officers to perpetrate sexual violence against immigrant women. WHAT DID THEY THINK WOULD HAPPEN WHEN THEY MADE IT OKAY FOR MASKED MEN TO NAB PEOPLE OFF OF THE STREET AND THROW THEM INTO UNMARKED VANS???
2. Trump threatens to revoke Rosie O’Donnell’s citizenship because she said mean things about him. (NYT, CNN, Fox News) Nope, no authoritarian tendencies at all.
3. The White House X (formerly Twitter) account posted the AI-warped picture of Rep. Jimmy Gomez's headshot and added a fake quote, saying, "ThEy'Re JuSt StRaWberRy PiCkErs,". Because folks, having compassion and empathy for marginalized populations is funny!!
4. Florida Attorney General orders airports to report ‘weather modification’ activities. “…as our hearts break for the victims of the flash floods in Texas, I can’t help but notice the possibility that weather modification could have played a role in this tragedy.” (The Hill, Yahoo News)
This is a wacky “chemtrails” adjacent conspiracy theory accusing Dems of changing the weather. Marjorie Taylor Green (climate scientist and meteorologist – just kidding) says, and I quote,” “Yes they (Dems and the “deep state”) can control the weather, It’s ridiculous for anyone to lie and say it can’t be done.” She said this after Hurricane Helene and posted a map implying Dems directed the storm to red areas. Yep.
5. The Trump Administration Is About to Incinerate 500 Tons of Emergency Food.
6. $50,000 hiring bonus for new ICE recruits and a six-figure salary because of the (stupid and reckless) “Big Beautiful Bill”. The ICE budget now is bigger than the FBI or the DEA. It is Trump’s personal Gestapo. BTW, so all along the money WAS there for healthcare, teachers, clean water…
7. Once again – ICE is arresting people who are ATTENDING their immigration hearings.
8. Tom Homan, Border Czar "People need to understand, ICE and Border Patrol don't need probable cause to walk up to somebody, briefly detain them, and question them....based on their physical appearance." (MSNBC, The Hill) BASED ON THEIR PHYSICAL APPEARANCE
9. So it is no surprise that this man, a disabled veteran and US citizen was arrested and detained for three days. His family were desperate for three days because he was not given a phone call, nor was he charged. I guess he LOOKED illegal. Folks, racial profiling is illegal. It violates the 14th amendment.
10. We are learning that FBI agents were instructed to flag any Epstein records that mentioned Trump. (CNBC, Time Magazine, NBC News) I am convinced now that they will release some list that will be scrubbed of Trump or any other Republican’s names. It will be useless propaganda. Look, if Trump’s name was not on the list he’d have released it already. He’d have sold framed copies on TruthSocial. Instead, he is calling his base stupid and weak for not letting it go. And do you know what is going to happen? Nothing. The base will fall in line.
11. Pastors can now tell you who you should vote for without having to worry about their nonprofit tax status. (NPR USA Today).
12. The Trump administration is destroying $9.7 million worth of contraceptives - primarily IUDs and implants - purchased by USAID are being destroyed instead of sending them to women in need overseas. On top of that, taxpayers will shell out another $167,000 just to dispose of them. (Alt National Park, The Guardian)
13. Florida farmers now plowing over perfectly good tomatoes as Trump’s tariff policies cause prices to plummet
14. Brace yourselves. I would not be including this in my list were it not for the fact that THE Wall Street Journal is reporting it. No possibility this is “fake news”. In the evidence in the Epstein files (obtained by DOJ) is a birthday album created by Ghislane Maxwell in 2003 for Epstein. In it is a birthday card written by Trump. In the card is a hand drawn picture of a naked women in which Trump’s signature is the pubic hair (I know, sorry, I’m just the messenger). Typed on the card is this message: “Happy Birthday — and may every day be another wonderful secret.”
Look, I don’t know. This is brand new reporting. I can’t see the WSJ reporting this if they had any doubts. Rupert Effing Murdoch owns it (the biggest of Trump fans, so that’s even weirder)! Now Trump is saying he will sue WSJ and Murdoch for 10 billion. Woweeeee this is wild.
Also, Trump is saying it’s fake news and he didn’t make the card and – “I’ve never drawn a picture in my life” which is funny because he’s drawn a lot of pictures.
As always, in the words of Thomas Jefferson in Hamilton, “So what did I miss?”
