Weren’t we told Tren de Aragua is a gang from Venezuela? Pretty sure that was what they said to justify that apartment building raid….

Project Veritas is in Orlando, FL.

The Brazilian nationals, linked to Tren de Aragua, face charges of underage sex trafficking and planning a terrorist attack on @ChabadSouthOrlando, a Jewish synagogue and school.

The Nobel Peace Prize, in my opinion, should only ever be given posthumously.

Given that so many people who champion peace or even achieve temporary peace can also champion war in other circumstances, it should be based on a totality of work.

My wife and I and many of our friends will be participating in the No Kings rally on October 18th. We are not criminals, we’ve never met George Soros, and we are not paid demonstrators. We are patriots who abhor how the government is treating its citizens.

Another win for our movement!

The Broadview community demanded that ICE take down the dangerous fence surrounding the Broadview Processing facility. A federal judge agreed and has ordered ICE to take it down.

ICE will be held accountable in Illinois. Our solidarity will continue to keep us safe.

Journalists play a critical role in protecting our democracy and uncovering the abuses of the Trump administration.

The attacks against the Chicago press are clear evidence that ICE is a terror force used for Trump’s authoritarian agenda.

It was a bogus tip, but the homeowner said they could look around but his dog was aggressive, so he locked it in the bathroom.
When he went to get ID, agents opened the door the dog defended his home and they KILLED IT.

100% avoidable and did I mention- it was the wrong address!

“I’m worried about my community… I’m out here in a frog costume to show how ridiculous the notion that we’re violent terrorists is, and showcase how that narrative is wrong…”

Serious Q: is it too late to give this dude the Nobel Peace Prize? 🐸 🏆

Truly believe that @nikkolas_smith art will go down in history as important social commentary pieces like #normanrockwell, while more inclusive in his messaging…

The world needs our #art. Driven by narratives that promote #peace.

It's been fun catching up with an old roommate that's been in Portland for a while now so I have a better vantage point and known source for what's going on over there.

She made sure to mention the emergency naked bike ride that happened today 😆

Keep it up, Portland! We're rooting from afar!
