I'd love to see the actual site just out of curiosity.

    I find it incredulous that some adult person in the white house would even allow such a sophomoric troll. If that's what it was. No doubt some of the easily confused MAGAs will probably rally to the words.

    Free Tina Peters?

    The text is there are the link, with what the Whitehouse is alleging happened. Yes, what bae said, I believe what I saw.

    The text is horrifying; they should be ashamed.

    Colorado has been in Trump's sights ever since he has thought Denver is a sanctuary city, or just because. He has ordered closed a large NOAA facility near Boulder that does weather monitoring an research and common opinion is that. it's part of is revenge tour and there are some legal challenges. In the latest the last couple of days he has ordered a freeze on federal funds for food aid and child care under the auspices of fraud instigations. The revenge is for the conviction of Tina. Peters, a country clerk convicted of seven counts of 2020 election inference and doing a nine year prison sentence. He made repeated demands for her to be released or moved to a federal facility somewhere else. Since she was convicted of state crimes, authorities have refused to bend a knee.

    He has referred to our governor as a "scumbag" and that he should "rot in hell". Slightly earlier he pulled funding for a water project that would pipe water to eastern Colorado small towns that have shortages of clean water. Even his sycophant, Boebert criticized that. Additionally as part of his revenge tour he has denied FEMA requests to help victims of recent wildfires and flooding and cancelled funding for transportation grants, all probably related to the Tina Peters in incident.

    Trump can do all within his powers to erase the dark stain on his legacy, including blaming the democrats for the 1/6 riots. I don't think the WH web site is at all "just trolling".

    No, not trolling. Rewriting history. An abomination.

    A woman was just MURDERED by ICE about 4 blocks from my DS in Minneapolis. The gestapo are out in full force. The video footage is very disturbing!

    The mayor of Minneapolis, after reviewing footage, told ICE to get the f—k out of Minneapolis!

    Sooner or later there will be an unwise reaction to one of these events, and then....interesting times.

    There could be a ruling in the tariff case Friday. Waiting with bated breath.

    The victim was from Colorado. Her parents say she was a widow, had no anti ICE affiliations that they knew of, and was the sort of person who liked to help others. And was probably terrified.
