Combine unqualified recruits, poor training, and legal impunity, and you get ICE: a weapon for presidents to terrorize and murder Americans. Yesterday's horror wasn't a mistake. It was inevitable.

“[He] is an expert marksman.” Ross created appearance of risk to justify lethality. He knew exactly what he was doing. www.startribune.com/ice-agent-wh...

None of us are safe.

This book - an oral history of Jan 6 as told by members, reporters, USCP, and insurrectionists - paints an all too vivid moment-by-moment capture of that day. This part, when Eugene Goodman deftly led them away from the Senate, hits hard for me. My better half @pkcapitol.bsky.social was with them

What do these companies have in common? -Cigna -Comcast -General Mills -Allstate -Marriott -Hilton -Walmart -Amazon -Microsoft -Meta All promised after January 6, 2021 to stop funding lawmakers who tried to overturn the 2020 election. And all have broken that promise.

FIVE YEARS & he has not been held accountable for one of the most disgraceful events in this nation's history. Trying to overturn a fair election in an attempted coup against his own government is the very definition of TREASON. We can never move forward until this is fully adjudicated. #ShameOnUS🇺🇸

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market. Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry. The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

BREAKING! RUSSIA NAVY SHIP FIRED LASER WEAPONS ON BRITISH SOLDIERS OFF THE COAST OF SCOTLAND - UK Defense Minister, John Healey This is a huge escalation. Trump has been kicking the can down the road, in 2-week increments, that culminate in Trump bending over for Putin, then attacking Ukraine.

It has been quite illuminating to see just how many monstrous people walk among us. Sadistic, greedy, ambulatory psychopaths…All the more reason to remember that just 31% of voting aged adults put Trump back in office. MAGA is NO majority and has NO mandate.

Bernie Has It Right Again….

⚡️'He's killing people for no reason' — Trump throws stark criticism at Putin, says war has damaged Russia's 'reputation.'

WHATEVER could have caused this??? It's a MYSTERY.

In 2017, I was in DC at Trump's inauguration protest. We were scared but we were together. I was wearing this shirt. I saw a punk standing by the march holding a sign saying "please be brave." We hugged and promised each other we would be brave. Things are scary. Please be brave.

Silly Jimmy Kimmel. He should have just called for all homeless people to be killed and he’d still have a job.

youtu.be/DUA5AxGTvzc Groypers, and incels, and pretty furries oh my. The alt right gaming Nazi-bros have created their own sexual culture, not unlike the way straight men in prisons engage in sex. They are not just hanging out, sharing memes and playing games, and hating women and wokeness.

This is the best explanation I've seen of Tyler Robinson's motives for assassinating Charlie Kirk. youtu.be/qcMYjtFWE7U

The President is providing security for the widow of Charlie Kirk, while just a short time ago, the President withdrew security for a former sitting President and Vice President.
