Obama has nothing to say about what Trump is doing, but he did post his NCAA bracket.

Biden has nothing to say about what Trump is doing, but he found time to post about St. Patrick's Day.

Harris has nothing to say about what Trump is doing, but she tweeted to celebrate International Women's Day.

It's not just Schumer. Dems have no idea how to mount a meaningful resistance. It's just BAU with them while the US descends into a Constitutional crisis. Hand the keys of the party to AOC, please!

Reporter note: I specifically asked the Trump admin if its new relationship with Meta meant data sharing, and if (like in 2016) still felt companies with unbreakable encryption (like Apple) should be 'forced or punished'. They had one chilling response.

The worst case scenario for a Canadian trying to enter the US used to be that you could be denied entry, and have to go home, travel plans in ruins.

The worst case scenario now is to be arrested without charge, held in an ICE detention facility in chains, and then shipped off to a concentration camp in El Salvador.

Should make you think twice.
