I had no idea this shit was real, shows how old and out of touch I am.

Honestly, I thought "Pretty Hard Cases" just made it up.

I guess I need to take comedy cop shows more seriously.

Yes I watched it.

Season 1 was clearly one of the best shows on TV in 2025.

I'm not sure if they can match the intensity of the first season but I am keeping my fingers crossed.

P.S. It may be a bit too accurate/graphic. Don't try to snack while it is on.

When Renee Good said "I'm not mad at you" what the ICE goon heard was "I'm not scared of you."

That's what enraged him. The populace wasn't fully terrorized and cowed into submission yet, so he acted to make that happen.
It should be bigger news that masked agents were filmed hours ago removing potentially inculpatory evidence from the ICE shooter's house, clearly lacking evidence tags or chain of custody stickers.

Before we have word on whether he underwent a toxicology screen at the hospital following the killing

This should have been part of the law to begin with.

It isn't as if we didn't all know exactly what Trump and his sycophants were going to do.

When asked why they voted to strengthen the ACA, each one answered with....

I have not watched any of it, but I am vaguely aware it exists. I just figured they are all pretty much the same and went with it.

John Miller: If you're confronted by a moving vehicle that could be a threat to you, get out of the way. I'm reading to you from DHS policy; 'DHS law enforcement officers are prohibited from discharging firearms at the operator of a moving vehicle or other conveyance.'

This video captures the murder at 29 frames per second. This gives you some perspective about how quickly the officer decided the situation warranted lethal force. ICE claims the driver tried to run the officer over. Judge for yourself with the following breakdown. 🧵

Also...

We are there to help the Venezuelan people, so we will have them send us a few billion dollars worth of oil for free.

Shhh....

If you say "Gas -Rich" in the wrong company you are going to get that cloud invaded.

OK, so....

We all know that is not going to happen.

But he is running Venezuela.

Greetings from Greenland.......

He has been given a talking point.

Oil.

Think back to the campaign when he would answer every question about his economic plans with some bullshit about tariffs.

It is the same thing now. No matter what is asked he will say something about oil, because he doesn't know anything at all.

I just checked their website. It is $78.00.

They have tons of shit like this. Including boxer briefs, so your balls don't get all radiated from your cell phone...

I guess we could test that theory with square pizza vs. round pizza diets.

Now, every time you do not have it turned on your cat is going to sit up there and be pissed at you.

Venezuelan oil reserves could last a hundred years or more, depending on consumption.

If he does not want us to leave without the oil....
