Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

Huh, wonder what it was about Stefanie that just never clicked with Trump. Because he hires and steadfastly supports plenty of other women, such as his HHS secretary, attorney general, key U.S. attorney, and director of national intelligence.
“Bluntly put, why the Court ruled as it did remains unclear-and without reasoning, this order cannot even be considered as persuasive."

In this Ohio diner, War is a strategic card game and Defense is the type of lawyer they make you hire after a Michigan fan got in your face. But they do know this: Donald Trump's landslide 49% of the vote gives him a mandate to rename every department in the federal government.

Andry Romero, a young gay man, was given an asylum appointment by the U.S. Government. When he showed up to the appointment we kidnapped him and sent him to a foreign prison.
I asked Secretary Noem to check if he’s alive. Her response was shameful.
If it’s unclear, this is a repressive regime with Christofascist features that’s working to build out a secret police force, and it’s testing the fences incrementally to see how much due process can be eliminated and whether disloyal judges & electeds can be disappeared w/o facing a public uprising.
