I would add, just think how different the world would be if on Oct. 8, all those nations, esp. Qatar said to (Iran cutout) Hamas "Get out and don't come back"

You are my Senator. I helped you get elected by standing on street corners for your first campaign for U.S. Senate. Why did you just endorse Nazi tattoo guy? JFC, that's disappointing.

i know the military has plans for war against like every country long before trump, and it’s seeming more and more like the file they had for dealing with the strait of hormuz in the event of a war with iran was “don’t go to war with iran you stupid fucking idiots”

Friends, if someone is telling you "AIPAC runs America," that's not an assertion. That person is not concerned about money in politics, or Israel trying to steer US military/foreign policy. It might look that way, but the tell is "runs America." That's code for a Jewish conspiracy, ie, antisemitism.

I think we can agree that Capitol Hunters has been an invaluable and reliable source. This guy has so many red flags (including removing his shirt at a moment's notice, and a very questionable "road to Damascus" conversion story) - and even refuses to apologize for the tattoo. The lack of humility

I am not going to vote to cut a blank check for ICE and let them detain, brutalize, shoot, or kill more American citizens just because Donald Trump started an unconstitutional war that no one asked for.

Bravo, leftists. Pure genius move. And unlike most of the GOP's bullshit, all of these claims are both accurate and in context. This is but a taste of what awaits EVERY Democratic candidate this fall.

Our only successes at imposing democracy occurred after WW 2 in Germany and Japan. Both involved occupation and massive expenditure. Occupation and expenditure failed in Irag and Afghanistan, and military alone, never.

Reports are now emerging from within the Dilley, Texas ICE Family Concentration Camp, which are referred to as “Blue Butterfly Zones.” These zones are where the camp’s young girls are being kept separated and isolated for unknown reasons.

one of the things that’s harder to see while we are in it, but will jump off the page at future historians, is how deeply corrupt *the entire trump family* is, and how they abused and and manipulated every lever of the federal government they could grab to steal everything that isn’t nailed down

The delay from SCOTUS on tariffs makes sense. The conservative justices are trying to solve a three-body problem: give Trump kingly powers, keep corporations safe from tariffs, and make sure no Democrat ever gets to use the same toys.

Remember, the people that ICE killed in Minneapolis were witnesses and not really protesters. The assaults are on witnesses. Just watching them with your eyes and phone camera is called "assult" because you have hurt their pride.

The grind of government isn’t like campaigning and that’s why experience will be needed when democrats take back house & White House. Sloganeering is easy; governing takes time and effort.

He wasn't going to a protest. There was no planned protest. It was people in a neighborhood witnessing & recording public actions by secret police. Gun-at-protest is a lie & distraction.

We don't know whether they were inexperienced or not. Charles Exum (who shot Marimar Martinez) and Jonathan Ross (who killed Renee Good) both have decades of experience. Both ALSO were working under rules of engagement that made such shootings likely, IMO. And Stephen Miller is setting those.

This is f*cked up! There isn’t any law in this country that requires you to provide proof of citizenship on the interior, but unfortunately ICE is racially profiling. And they don’t care if you say you’re a US citizen. So where does this leave everyone? If you don’t look white, you’re in danger.

A Minneapolis pastor of an MCC church — a denomination rooted in LGBTQ equality — recounts being detained by ICE. Says an ICE officer walked up to him as he was chanting “we are not afraid.” The agent, he says, raised his gun and said “are you afraid now?”
