NATO soldiers didn’t “die doing nothing.” They died honoring alliances, defending democracy, and backing the U.S.!
In actual fact they died doing what bone spurs Trump never would!
Those graves are the answer to Trumps mouth that he spewed in Davos!

There is A LOT of misinformation going around about the continued funding of ICE.
It ISN'T a done deal.
Yes, it passed in the House, but the Senate hasn't taken it up yet.
That's the way this shit works.
CONTACT YOUR SENATOR NOW AND TELL THEM TO VOTE THIS FUNDING DOWN.

Flashback: Secret Russian papers showed that Vladimir Putin and his underlings saw Donald Trump as "mentally unstable" and would foment American and global divisions while enabling Russia to have more geopolitical power.
This did not get enough play in 2021 when it was first reported.

🧵 A small group between 20-30 people gathered in Petoskey MI Saturday evening to honor Alex Pretti who was gunned down on Sat morning. The mood was somber. The temps were near 0. There was little traffic but what there was had positive interactions with us.

The Washington Post published a clear video of federal agents removing Alex Pretti's handgun moments before he was fatally shot. There's nothing in the video to suggest Pretti even reached for his weapon.

The TRUMP REGIME sent ICE to terrorize Minnesota not because there is crime or fraud in the state but because Waltz refused to give this crooked DOJ the state voter rolls they demanded. Pam Bondi confirmed this in a letter to Gov. Waltz yesterday. Now ICE is also in Maine. For the same reason.

The Rodney King video is one of the most important moments in American history because it showed people, particularly comfortable white people, irrefutable evidence that marginalized people’s stories of how police behaved - which were never believed - were in fact true.
Imagine how much they’d be lying about what happened without all the videos showing it from multiple angles.

We have been told for nearly 30 years that America needed to tolerate mass shootings because the broad availability of guns would help us defend ourselves from an overreaching federal government. That day has come. The people who said this are supporting the federal agents. Many have joined them.
