Yeah but in the end. The Felon will fuck it up somehow. The shoe will drop on this one. Just like that airplane deal. Save this comment. Gift my ass.

No doubt DJT will say something along the lines of, "This would never have happened (the Oct 7 Massacre) if I was president."

JB Pritzker Is Looking At Prosecuting ICE Agents

Gov. JB Pritzker had a message for any ICE agents who are abusing their power in Illinois. Someday, the tables will turn, and they will be prosecuted.

That person is an expert in political manipulation. Incredible! There's at least one company that openly hires paid agitators and warm bodies to fill seats at political rallies.

They're scared. They're right to be afraid. I'd be scared, too, if 10-15 million people were about to organize a march and shout out loud to tell me they hate what I'm doing.

They do know better. They are working overtime to make sure their audience doesn’t.

Fox News is Pravda BS. They should know better because they were witnesses to the last "No Kings" demonstrations which were held and All were PEACEFUL.

So they've voted for more crimes? More injustice?
Garland would have been replaced by the former California AG who said on the campaign trail that she knew his type.
I guess people didn't vote because they gave up hope and voter apathy gave him the win as much as electoral corruption did.

REMEMBER 2020: Trump admin enjoys violence and uses it against people. They are intentionally creating conflicts now.

They're going to try to create violence and I'm worried about it. I don't think it'll deter the turnout but we need to be aware and prepared.

All this is going to do is increase the turnout.
The greater danger is in not protesting.

We don’t care if it makes you uncomfortable.
We’re angry — and we’re done apologising for it.

Female rage isn’t a weakness. It’s a force: raw, righteous, and long overdue.

Be loud. Be brave.

Neguse: Trump can threaten all he wants, but House Democrats won’t be bullied. Republicans may have forgotten Congress is co-equal; we haven’t.

We don’t work for Donald Trump.

Outdated laws from the 1700s and 1800s give the president tremendous power to use the military at home. It’s past time for Congress to repeal the Alien Enemies Act, close loopholes in the Posse Comitatus Act, and reform the Insurrection Act. bit.ly/4oxXJLN

Outdated and Dangerous

Antiquated laws from the 1700s and 1800s give the president tremendous power to use the military at home to quash protests and order mass arrests in times of war and domestic upheaval.

Has anyone heard about the status of the young woman in Chicago that ICE crashed into and then dragged out of her car?

No, thanks, no naked bicycle riding in October rains for me! I applaud the hardy souls who participated!
