Trump Admin Official Claims Democrats who were arrested at a Sched Visit of a ICE Detention facility in New Jersey are "Worse than 9/11.”
Reacting to the arrest of Newark NJ mayor Ras Baraka by federal agents at an ICE facility, and to the treatment by ICE officers of three Democratic members of Congress — Reps. Robert Menendez, LaMonica McIver, and Bonnie Watson Coleman — who scheduled a visit to inspect the facility, former Congressman Dan Bishop (R-NC) wrote: “Members of Congress and the Mayor of Newark committed an insurrection at a federal detention facility in New Jersey today. Worse than 9/11.”Bishop, who serves in the current Trump administration as the Deputy Director of OMB, received scathing responses for his comparison to 9/11, in which foreign terrorists attacked the United States killing nearly 3,000 Americans.
Among those hammering Bishop is U.S. Congressman Pat Ryan (D-NY), whose district was among those hit hardest by 9/11 — the worst attack on American soil in history. Ryan, a military veteran and graduate of West Point, addressed Bishop directly writing: “It makes me physically ill that you are in a position of power in the Trump Administration.”
Ryan, the recipient of two Bronze Star Medals, also expressed surprise that Bishop’s post hadn’t been deleted.
What are you talking about? The current administration takes responsibility for everything that happens... as long as its good news in their opinion.

Trump announced the "Most Favored Nation" pricing policy in a Truth Social post on Sunday. The policy, which Trump claimed will immediately reduce costs by 30%-80%, forces pharmaceutical companies to match or beat prices offered in other developed nations, many of which have government-run health systems.

That's why I only quoted the part of your post that I was questioning. The paraphrased portion is almost completely incorrect.

I was ok with the dropping of sanctions on Syria since they have a new government that seems to be more open to the West and looking for a fresh start. But if these events are connected and sure seems they might be, then that is obviously not legitimate reason to change foreign policy.
This entire administration is blatantly only about enriching a single orange man, his family and close friends.
Yep. Seems like every time I think "Trump did something I can get behind" its followed up with "wtf"

At least our amazing allies...Turkey and Saudi Arabia were onboard with it
"Trump said Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan had encouraged him to remove the sanctions [against Syria]..."

Trump cultist/self-proclaimed "prophet" Hank Kunneman says Qatar's plan to give Trump a $400 million jet is a sign of God's favor, comparing it to Christ sending his disciples off to get him a donkey on which to ride into Jerusalem. https://www.peoplefor.org/rightwingwatch/hank-kunneman-says-trumps-400-million-jet-sign-gods-favor
Yeah, that story of the donkey is one of my favorite passages in the NT. Some of my other faves are when Jesus banged that porn Star and told her to go and sin no more, or when he saw that disabled news reporter by the Pool of Siloam and Jesus mocked him, or when he pulled cryptocurrency from the mouth of a fish. I could go on…
He thinks he is the American people.
Obviously they haven't been properly vetted. Which I realize you care nothing about.
So we end protected status for all of them?
Guilt by association based only upon same nationality?
They’re already being treated differently and more favorably when they were fast-tracked.
Nothing “lucky break”ish about that.
