How two housekeepers took on the president* — and revealed that his company employed undocumented immigrants

https://www.washingtonpost.com/polit...3a0_story.html

Quote:

The years of service that Diaz and other undocumented immigrant housekeepers, cooks, landscapers, greenskeepers, waiters, bellhops, farm hands and caddies devoted to the Trump Organization have given them a remarkable vantage point into the unvarnished lives of the now-first family. They have seen poolside tantrums and holiday arguments. They’ve laughed with the in-laws and watched after the grandkids.

Their recollections also show how Trump’s entrance into presidential politics — denouncing illegal immigrants as criminals and job-stealers — upended their lives and prompted some of them to publicly confront their former boss.

Donny 'Two Scoops' paid a $2 million dollar fine today for operating a fraudulent family charity. Can you imagine if this was Obama or Clinton who'd been caught with their hand in the cookie jar?

Jewish Democrats Respond to Trump’s Executive Order on Anti-Semitism

https://jewishdems.org/jewish-democr...-anti-semitism

Quote:
“The Jewish Democratic Council of America (JDCA) applauds bipartisan efforts to combat anti-Semitism wherever and whenever it may occur, but that is not what we’re seeing today with this executive order. The day after yet another attack on Jewish Americans, and just three days after President Trump characterized Jews as money-hungry ‘killers,’ President* Trump has zero credibility to take meaningful action to combat the scourge of anti-Semitism for which he is partially responsible.

“If President* Trump truly wanted to combat anti-Semitism, he would accept responsibility for his role in perpetuating anti-Semitic conspiracy theories and emboldening white nationalism. We said it before and we’ll say it again – Donald Trump is the biggest threat to American Jews.

“This is truly the arsonist attempting to serve as the firefighter, and we’d prefer Trump stop inciting the flames of hatred against Jews as opposed to feigning his concern with a political stunt timed to correspond with the White House Hanukkah party. American Jews – and Israel – are not pawns to be used in Trump’s re-election bid. It’s not up to Donald Trump to define, stereotype, or use Jews for his own political advantage, and we reject his attempts to do so.

“Having now seen the executive order the president will sign later today, we also have substantive concerns. We must be careful to distinguish legitimate criticism of Israel from free speech protected by the First Amendment. Any overreach by the administration in the enforcement of this executive order could chill protected speech, making it even harder to fight legitimate anti-Semitism. And if anyone needs examples of what anti-Semitism looks like, one need to look no further than the words of President* Trump (and charges of dual loyalty), which would be classified as anti-Semitic according to his own executive order.

He and his followers have gone so far all in now. Have to keep doubling down in ever increasing measures.
Knowing that they must keep and hold onto power. To insure thus preventing the truth from coming out exposing for all to see.
