WSJ investigation: In the past 6 months ICE agents have fired at vehicles 13 times, leading to: * 8 people shot * 5 of which were U.S. citizens * 2 died * no victims drew a weapon The playbook: Agents box in a vehicle, block attempts to flee, then fire

Senator Kelly is correct. Plus a Public Service Announcement: KEY section of Department of Defense's Law of War Manual is 18.3.2.1. The VERY rule on the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders gives as its paradigmatic example of what is "clearly illegal: "orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

O'DONNELL: Why did you pardon Changpeng Zhao? TRUMP: Are you ready? I don't know who he is O'DONNELL: His crypto exchange Binance helped facilitate a $2b purchase of World Liberty Financial's stablecoin. And they you pardoned him. TRUMP: Here's the thing -- I know nothing about it

While we are tearing the Whitehouse down and rolling tanks into our own communities, I just wanted to ask: When do we get Greenland? I haven't forgotten how important that was to these guys. I for one need Greenland to still be a distraction. -KM

Didn't even hint at it. He just said it. Donald and Pete seem to want a war with America itself.

Remember folks these guys believe their greatest enemy is the enemy within: “authorizing full force, if necessary to handle domestic terrorists” They are placing sitting armies in our cities and loosening the rules of engagement. Clearly spoiling for a fight amongst us.

This one is festering for me: When you take away primary sources of income from rural hospitals, which the administration was warned they were doing, (aka removing Medicare/Medicaid subsidies) the hospitals can't stay open.

Imagine you're a career military general being summoned for a pentagon strategy lecture by a former game show host and a former weekend talk show host.

the first amendment is absolutely what makes our constitution powerful. We have to continue to find ways to disagree. Boldly and like neighbors. The violence isn't reserved for 1 side, it will consume us all.

To be clear, that's a pretty big show of force picking up a guy who a: said he would come in, and b: is charged with sandwich related crimes. Honestly, it has the opposite effect they think it has. These guys are terrified of us.

Definition of a military coup: Violent overthrow of a government by its military. We are officially at the point where the US government is overthrowing our state and local governments. This ends only one way my friends.

A hidden 10 point tax on business or consumers, or both. Maga, the party of inflation and higher taxes.

We need the news media to take a good look at who is shorting. Shorting stocks, crypto, all of it. Inevitably, they knew it was going to tank the market. They aren't trying to mitigate the damage. If you are in a position of insider knowledge and power and are short, that's fraud.

Our Ag sec clearly has only worked with complete idiots if these are the smartest she's worked with. Her version of "think tank" probably is her margarita blender.

No one is buying this. Mass layoffs, tanking stock market. The market reacts to what y'all do. An unsteady hand will have immediate effect.

43 pounds is the same weight in cheese burgers I ate last year. This is an unforced error. History will call this one of the biggest mistakes a president has ever made.

Who benefits by normalizing an imperialistic USA? (even if we never make a single move and only rattle our sabre) The other country actually invading its neighbors. Russia. Flood the zone is page 1 tactics for this group. Outrage to ridiculousness is key to the maneuver.
