damn -- CNN put together a video of Kristi Noem claiming ICE officers are "highly trained and skilled" and "gifted" alongside to a clip of them beating someone nearly to death in Minneapolis

Pam Bondi being a Scientologist makes a lot of sense, actually.

I don’t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.

Today would be a GREAT day to release the Epstein files.

When I stop laughing I'll provide some insightful analysis.

BREAKING Kemi Badenoch has sacked Robert Jenrick from the shadow cabinet, removed the whip and suspended his party membership. She says she was "presented with clear, irrefutable evidence that he was plotting in secret to defect" to Reform

Meanwhile Cymru has been robbed of billions in Barnett funding by Westminster classifying English projects as “England and Wales”. And this is why Labour barely scrapes 10% in the polls in a nation which it has dominated - and taken for granted - for a century. We’ve had enough of this shit.

Trump tells protesters in Iran to ‘take over,’ promising U.S. help. But here in the US he’s crushing protesters? Talk about Idiocy!

I believe the ICE agent suffered internal bleeding about as much as I believe that Donald Trump wasn’t in the Epstein files.

It seems remarkable to me that “the entire body politic” is absolutely unified on the right of foreign football thugs with a horrific reputation for violence and racism to visit Britain, and on the need to fire any senior policemen who defy instructions to permit it. It is IMO pretty astonishing.

Craig: "In my district, 2 days ago a special ed teacher pulled into her school parking lot, her windows were smashed, she was taken & detained for 12 hours. I've never seen such an out of control agency. That's why as soon as I leave, I'm joining a group to file articles of impeachment against Noem"

We need fair global tax rules, not decisions stitched up behind closed doors, by a few rich countries to benefit megacorporations. That's why I just emailed my MP so they go and get informed about it. Take 2 mins and email yours now too. actionnetwork.org/letters/take...

Epstein! Epstein! Epstein! Epstein! Epstein! Epstein! Epstein! Epstein! Epstein! Epstein! Epstein! Epstein! Epstein! Epstein! Epstein! Epstein! Epstein! Epstein

Laura Jedeed on applying for a job with ICE: "I expected them to Google me, and they didn't ... they sent me a final job offer ... what's disturbing is we don't know who is wearing these masks with guns in our city. We don't know if they have domestic violence convictions."

A group of Epstein survivors just formally demanded that the DOJ Inspector General open an investigation into how the heavily redacted Epstein files were released. They’re demanding action now to release the files and we stand with them.

Good reminder from this state highway!

MeidasTouch host Ben Meiselas reports on Donald Trump getting warned in public by his own top generals about the harm he is causing to the allies of the United States and how he’s helping our enemies get stronger.

Holy shit! Wholly shite! Glad I don't live there any longer.

How many moms need to get shot in the face before members of congress support a sec Noam impeachment?

Jacob Frey on Fox & Friends: "We have had perhaps tens of thousands of people peacefully protesting in the streets, and at the same time yeah, they're gonna stand up for their neighbors. And what we're seeing time and time again is unconstitutional conduct by ICE."

Every couple of weeks we get a different description of the apparently awful stench coming off our necrotic president and I think it's high time the media nail down exactly what kind of rotten meat covered in women's perfume he actually smells like.

Duh.

Kristi Noem has been a complete and total failure at her job. She has violated her oath and has allowed ICE agents to terrorize our communities. That’s why I’m joining @robinkelly.house.gov in calling for her impeachment. We deserve better, she’s gotta go.

🧵 “Nice people made the best Nazis.. They got along, refused to make waves, looked the other way when things got ugly and focused on happier things than “politics.” They were lovely people who turned their heads as their neighbors were dragged away. You know who weren’t nice people? Resisters.”
