✴️ And now for something completely different... A #TimelineCleanse 🦏

SHOCK CELL PHONE VIDEO: Renee Good's final words to her murderer: “That’s fine dude, I’m not mad at you.” ICE agent Jonathan Ross after shooting and killing her seconds later: “Fuckin’ bitch.” Via Alpha News

In America you drop your kid off at school, get your brains blown out on the ride home, then the Vice President drops everything for a week to call you a terrorist, to slander your family, to protect the circumstances that led to your death so they can do it again. It is government by Alex Jones.

It's unseasonably warm around these parts today. 🌤️ A powerful *craving came over me for two things; wind in my face and #sliders in my belly: #WhiteCastle was a completely comfortable cruise right up the road. 🏪 #MissionAccomplished 🍔 🏍️ #FastFoodFriday 🤌

This week: we execute a U.S. citizen. Next week: we take over elections to stop “fraud.” It's so transparent what's going on here.

Trump has shredded the Constitution. He's taken an axe to checks and balances. He's using the presidency to line his own pockets and the pockets of those around him. He says he is constrained only by his “own morality.” When we say "No Kings," this is why.

Damn, this woman has her own righteous anger under a level of control that is rarely possible for most reasonable people, myself included. 💔 #MakeAmericaSmartAgain 🇺🇲

WITNESS: "I just can't let this narrative of self-defense go any further. That’s absolutely not what it was… ICE agents didn’t let anyone help her for 15 minutes, then medics couldn’t get through with their ambulance.”

I'm shaking as I watch this horrible scene unfold. These fools are going to cause otherwise rational people to retaliate. And then we know what happens next... 🤨

For those keeping score, Bellingcat, The New York Times Visual Investigation Team, & Washington Post's Visual Forensic team have all published analysis showing the ICE shooter wasn't in the path of Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle when he shot her, contradicting statements by the President & his cronies

“The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.” —George Orwell (1984)

"The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension has just revealed that federal officials have 'reversed course,' and the investigation into the killing of a Minneapolis woman by an ICE agent will be conducted by the FBI without assistance from the BCA."

I refuse to stay silent while Secretary Noem breaks the rule of law and terrorizes our communities. I am introducing Articles of Impeachment against her for violating the public trust, obstructing Congress, and self-dealing. Read my full statement: robinkelly.house.gov/media-center...

I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy. She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.

NEW: MAYOR FREY: “They are already trying to spin this as an act of self defense. I’ve seen the video myself and I want to tell everybody directly; that is bullshit.”

AOC: ICE has less accountability than virtually any law enforcement agency in the U.S., yet they are some of the most well-funded, operating with impunity—and we just saw them murder an American citizen in cold blood in the street.

@alicefraser.bsky.social Cousin Alice would be proud 🌌

#Bastardos! 🤬 My blood runs cold to see what our miserable excuse for a #government calls "justified" #MakeAmericaSmartAgain 🇺🇲

Absolutely 100% accurate; then AND now. 🤬 #MakeAmericaSmartAgain 🇺🇲

republicans attack democrats over legitimate election activities more than democrats attack republicans over january 6

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.

Samuel Alito flew two flags used by insurrectionists. Clarence Thomas' wife plotted to overturn the 2020 election. Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the January 6th plot. It's a stain on our nation that this has effectively been forgotten.

Reformed January 6th participant (who refused a pardon): “You can't gaslight me. I was there. I saw the officers being pepper sprayed. I watched one of them fall down and hit his head and his back. So don't be telling me it wasn't violent.”

Never forget. 🇺🇸

An important thing to remember on this January 6 anniversary. www.citizensforethics.org/reports-inve...

@theoriginaltomjoad.bsky.social Holy crap, your "Emergency" Substack post just knocked all the wind out of me; thanks? I posted a comment there, but I dunno if it went thru. A long, powerful benediction on our collective *long strange trip. The whole thing really hit me like a cannonball. 💣

#Jan6 🤬 #NeverForget ⚖️ "We are living in dangerously weird times now. Smart people just shrug & admit they're dazed and confused. The only ones left with any confidence at all are the #NewDumb. It is the beginning of the end of our world as we know it. Doom is the operative ethic." #HunterSThompson🎇

Rep. Raskin: "Republicans today are observing this solemn anniversary by doing exactly nothing. They've even refused to hang up the plaque, which a bipartisan congressional majority voted to put up to honor the officers who defended the Capitol & the peaceful transfer of power."

What a fascinating concept, being held accountable for documented decades of fraud & corruption 🤔 You've got MY vote! ⚖️ 👍 #MakeAmericaSmartAgain 🇺🇲

FLASHBACK — TAPPER: “Would the world be better off with Saddam Hussein and Gaddafi in power?” TRUMP: “100%! 100%! We have to rebuild our country… We have 19 trillion in debt.” Trump makes the case against what he just did.

❤️‍🔥 I'm feeling strong emotions after reading this post 💭 Two sentient beings in their youth, completely different in form yet bound together by a cruel twist of fate, seemingly helping each other to survive & grow in a harsh world. #Humans should learn from them: 🦏 🦓 #OnlyKindnessMatters 🫂

My illustration of one of my genuine heroes. The great John Lewis.

If you are a foreign president who commits crimes overseas, America will come get you, arrest you, and lock you up. But if you are a US president who commits crimes here in the United States, America will give you immunity from prosecution, reelect you, and bribe you with billions of dollars.
