Vance lied that Haitian immigrants ate dogs and cats in Ohio. This smear caused a rash of bomb threats. Vance then said it was OK to lie: "If I have to create stories so that the American media actually pays attention to the suffering of the American people, then that’s what I’m going to do." 6/11 🧵

Trying to burnish his right-wing warrior props, Vance blamed Renee Good for her own murder at the hands of ICE in Minneapolis. He said she was “brainwashed” by a “broader, left-wing network.” He claimed “she tried to ram somebody with her car” even though videos show she didn’t. 10/11 🧵

Vance endorsed books by Heritage Foundation chief Kevin Roberts and right-wing conspiracy theorist Jack Posobiec. Roberts said menacingly that “the 2nd American Revolution … will remain bloodless if the left allows it to be.” Posobiec, who pushed the Pizzagate hoax, calls liberals “unhuman.” 9/11 🧵

At this point, Vance is the frontrunner to succeed Trump as leader of the American fascist movement. He’s less mentally deranged than Trump but just as much of a narcissist, so we need to mobilize to stop him. Keep this thread handy if you ever hear anyone say anything nice about him. 11/11 🧵

Vance is a 2020 election denier. He says “Big Tech rigged the election” through supposed censorship. Vance also says if he had been vice president on Jan. 6, 2021, he wouldn’t have certified the results. 7/11 🧵

On Jan. 12, 2025, Vance said of the J6 mob: “If you committed violence on that day, obviously you shouldn’t be pardoned.” Two weeks later, after Trump pardoned *all* J6 attackers, Vance did a 180: “We rectified a wrong, and I stand by it.” More proof that Vance believes in one thing: power. 8/11 🧵

Meanwhile,the ROI for IRS auditing of high income earners is something like 12:1.

Guarantee you we spent more than $14,000 on ICE and CBP overtime at MSP airport today to seize … $14,135.

I'm confused. If the limit to declare is $10,000 per person, and there were two people, then why is $14,135 able to be seized?

DHS caught lying again 🤥

Danish soldiers are now arriving in Greenland as the military presence increases.

In Louisiana, an ICE officer named David Courvelle has pleaded guilty on charges related to his monthslong sexual abuse of a Nicaraguan woman held in a detention center. www.wbrz.com/news/contrac...

Roberta Metsola, the President of the European Parliament, delivered the most severe criticism of Donald Trump we’ve witnessed so far regarding Greenland. It’s quite remarkable.

NEW — DHS just posted this as an apparent explanation for why they arrested an elderly US citizen with no criminal record (it's a quote post of a post about ChongLy Thao's arrest.) The implication seems to be that all Asian men look the same, and it's not their fault they mistook one for another.

BREAKING — ChongLy Scott Thao's family has released a statement disputing DHS's outrageous justification for his arrest. "He does not live with, nor has he ever lived with, the individuals DHS claims were targets of this operation...[the family] does not know the individuals DHS references."

😡😡

Seems to me, Trump got a little too big for his britches because he got away with attacking Venezuela and kidnapping their president. But it’s not going to go down that way when he takes on all of NATO over Greenland.

🚨"It looks just like a cover up to me" -Minnesota AG @keithellison.bsky.social tells our @jtcestkowski.bsky.social on the Trump DOJ's "inexplicable" refusal to investigate the killing of Renee Good. "Give us the file—we'll do it. It speaks to cover up and the whole world should denounce it."

Blanche won’t investigate the killing of an innocent woman on camera but they’ve got all hands on deck for a church service being interrupted

Consequences #norway #nobelpeaceprize

We filed new 1st Amendment lawsuit today against Secretary Kristi Noem & DHS for firing federal employee for expressing private comments & personal views during fake date set up by James O'Keefe's targeted political operations. O'Keefe's paid undercover operative was also sued.

I wonder how the 197,000 Hennepin County residents who voted for Trump feel about all of this?

ICE ended up returning the man, Saly, after realizing he’s a fucking US citizen with no criminal record, per his sister-in-law. These fucking animals.

Oh c'mon, the Revolutionary War was littered with examples of incredibly accurate firing of muskets from a full pace sprint.

I think a good strategy for your non-leftist social media presence (ie everywhere but here) is to give this photo - the remains of Danish soldiers returning in coffins after being killed in America's war in Afghanistan - as wide an audience as possible. Remind people who we're betraying

President Donald Trump's administration has appealed a federal court order that protects protesters in Minneapolis from some of the most controversial and heavy-handed crackdown tactics being used by federal agents.

Questions have mounted over whether President Donald Trump has sold off pardons in exchange for donations to his MAGA allies.

Phang: If the Trump/Bondi DOJ continues this charade of Halligan presenting herself as a U.S. attorney—even though a federal judge has found that she was unlawfully appointed—indictments like this for carjacking and attempted bank robbery could potentially be dismissed.

Trump is threatening Europe and still the Republicans do nothing. This must be what they want as well.

Nothing to see here. Just another impeachable offense by Trump involving Ukraine. And this is just one of the big impeachable offenses Trump’s committed in just the first year of his second term.

People, Trump's staff is working to "divert his attention" from engaging in disruptive, destructive actions. This means he is no longer capable of rational decisions. This warrants removal.

In the 2020 election, Joe Biden defeated Donald Trump by winning both the Electoral College and the popular vote. He then became Trump's president for the next 4 years, retiring undefeated.

You can either deny reality or fix it, Trump is a reflection of your country as it has always been. It's not enough to reject or oust his regime, but also, have a serious reflection as a nation of how you actually got here, allowed corruption & impunity to exist openly for so long, and change it.

U.S. defense officials are saying 1,500 active-duty soldiers are on standby in Alaska for possible deployment to Minneapolis. That’s on top of the 3,000+ ICE agents already in the area. We don’t really believe this is about undocumented immigrant crime in Minneapolis, do we?

The Epstein Files must be so horrible, so treacherous, he’s willing to destroy his legacy and family name to protect himself. Desperate.

The current occupant of the presidency is a completely demented lunatic who has lost touch with reality. That should terrify EVERYONE.

ICYMI — In negative degrees weather they took a LEGAL naturalized citizen out in his underwear, after trashing his house. They released him an hour later. The cruelty is the point. (From @thejfreakinc.bsky.social )

I sincerely hope Canada and Mexico have the largest spectator turnouts for the World Cup games ever, and that the US has the lowest turnouts.

Danish Parliament Deputy Speaker Lars-Christian Brask: "If I could come with some advice, it would be for the Senate & House to start to take control of political power in America because with this erratic & mad behaviour, you have to ask the question, is the President capable of running the US?"

It's bizarre that some politicians are trying to behave as if the US president were sane, or capable of reason or moral judgement.

Cookie update. Got him. Bad pic but he is now in his safe space. Warm. Protected from all that bad stuff outside. He doesn't appreciate it yet but he's gonna love the life he's got left to live. Thanks everyone who has given encouragement. Love you all so much 🩷
