- Someone has been a very naughty sociopath... AGAIN! Won't someone please put this sh*tbag behind bars for an extended period? 😕🤦♂️
- House to Vote on Reopening Government, Extending ICE Funding The deal would fund 'most' of the government through September. But Congress would have just 10 days to fund the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Free & unlocked link to the WaPo story: archive.ph/KtyoI
