“Elon Musk is a terrible president” Tim Walz is right. He could have been our VP if people weren’t so racist.

Meanwhile, Trump's White House Communications Director, Steven Cheung, tried to defend his boss with an "Alpha male" insult.

But Cheung's puerile defense drew ridicule.

Walz's post came as other Democrats spoke out against Musk’s unfettered access to personal data and payment information for American citizens, despite never being elected, vetted, or confirmed for a government position.

Vance Cites ‘Traffic Violations’ To Help Justify Sending Migrant Dad To El Salvador Prison

Vice President J.D. Vance was criticized after he doubled down on his insistence that a Maryland father who was accidentally deported to an El Salvadorian prison due to an "administrative error" was a criminal, justifying the move—much to the anger of social media users—because the man had "traffic violations" that warranted his removal.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran national who arrived in the U.S. in 2012, was labeled a threat in 2019 due to an alleged connection to the MS-13 gang. He spent months in detention before an immigration judge found he had a credible fear of persecution—not from MS-13, but from a rival group, Barrio 18, which he said had been extorting his family.
