I don't think I've seen a network TV news report more transparently full of shit since maybe 2003, right before we invaded Iraq

Why would the cartels want to stop ICE and CBP activities that have been diverting resources away from drug interdiction?

Screen shot of ABC article with the headline “cartels issuing bounties up to 50k for hits on ICE and CBP agents, DHS says.”

Without the extension of ACA credits, healthcare costs will increase nationwide. Wyoming will see a 693% increase, while West Virginia could see as high as 654%.

We need to make healthcare affordable, not crush Americans with high costs.

Pretending to the world that you are the president of peace while waging war at home is diabolical.

A 15-year-old girl was assaulted while alerting her community about ICE raids. The Department of Homeland Security denies any involvement, ICE misrepresents the footage, and then continuously alters its narrative.

As I've noted, central to Stephen Miller's propaganda is the claim that the Chicago complex targeted by ICE was "filled" with Tren de Aragua "terrorists."

Now @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social reports that the number of TdA members netted in that raid is down to *one.*

This idiot keeps bragging about the 20 hostages being released in another country while he's kidnapping thousands of people a day here in America.

Fuck him and the fascism he rode in on.

They’re freaking out!!!

Trump’s cabinet secretaries falsely claim Dems are keeping the government closed because of the “No Kings” mass protests, and Mike Johnson calls it the “hate America rally.”

The truth is: we love America, but we hate tyrants. That’s why we’re doing this.

See you Saturday.

ICE agents interfered with—and even threatened to “shoot and arrest”—emergency personnel rescuing an injured protester last week in Portland.

The agent “pointed his finger at me in a threatening manner,” the driver recalled, “and began viciously yelling in my face.

The more GOP officials and right-wing hacks try to spin and pivot from their Young Republican leaders praising Hitler and racism and gas chambers for their enemies, the more it puts the story in the spotlight.

Keep at it!
