What about your State Stormtroopers involvement, asshole?

ICE is recklessly throwing tear gas into our neighborhoods and busy streets, including near children at school and CPD officers.

The Trump Administration must stop their deployment of dangerous chemical weapons into the air of peaceful American communities.

Spotify is running recruitment ads for ICE and their owner is helping to develop military AI. Maybe hit that "cancel my account" button?

Spotify is now running recruitment ads for ICE.

It’s time to cancel your account.

SCOOP: The State Department's new reorganization plan includes the opening of an "Office for Remigration," a term popularized by far right extremists and neo-Nazis in Europe. The office will coordinate directly with DHS "to advance the President’s immigration agenda."

My report:

State Department set to launch ‘Office of Remigration’

The concept of remigration has explicitly neo-Nazi roots and has been popularized in Europe.

Chuck Schumer should be focused on fighting Donald Trump and protecting healthcare for millions of Americans, not meddling in a Maine primary.

DC's choice has lost to Susan Collins five times in a row. We can't afford a sixth.

Trump just bombed six more people in the Caribbean, for a total of 27 civilians who have been killed so far by the US military. It’s illegal for the military to target civilians who do not pose an immediate threat. This is murder.

U.S. Military Kills Another 6 People in 5th Caribbean Strike, Trump Says
In a social media post, the president said the people aboard a boat were suspected of smuggling drugs for an unspecified group his team had labeled terrorists.

Hilariously, they've arrested fewer people with criminal records than if they'd just picked up random folks off the street. Oh wait, they ARE picking up random folks off the street. Wow, they're terrible at this.

Trump claims ICE’s reign of terror in Chicago is targeting the “worst of the worst.”

But out of the 1,000 undocumented immigrants that have swept up, the agency has only cited 10 men with a criminal background.

Don’t believe his lies for a second.

Trump says migrants drive violent crime in Illinois. But ICE can’t find many violent criminals.

Masked ICE agents and other federal forces showed up in Chicago to go after gangsters. Instead, they keep catching people who are just living their lives.

A bullet any one of the fast food chains could've taken but they're coming for my precious Arby's.

If you believe the food you're gonna get is gonna look like the picture I don't think it's the restaurants fault you live in fantasy land

Arby's is being sued for false advertising

Lawsuit alleges:

• Ads make the sandwiches appear to have 'at least 100% more meat' than they really do

• Made the meat look like rare roast beef when it is actually 'fully cooked'

Arby's lost its motion to dismiss the case

This is such a thorough take down of Bari Weiss and the vapid shill she is for oligarch billionaires. He especially shreds the Free Press over it's coverage of trans issues and the so called whistleblower Jamie Reed.

Happy Columbo’s Day

Screenshot from Columbo. He his talking to his dog, which is sitting is the drivers seat of a car. “Okay, I’m gonna put you in charge. You take care of the car. You’re a responsible dog. When I get back, if the car’s okay, I’ll give you another cookie.”
