Three rules in FBI firearm training:

1. Always point your weapon downrange
2. Do not point your weapon at anything you do not intend to shoot
3. Don’t put your finger on the trigger unless you intend to shoot

Guns are not for threatening compliance for unarmed people doing things you don’t like
happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

To repeat - ICE agents have been trained to ignore the law, to act outside the law, not enforce it.

Hundreds and hundreds of crimes being committed, daily, by people paid for by all of us.

There is no law that allows these observers to be arrested. Multiple constitutional violations are happening every goddamn time they do this. And they will kill an innocent person again, it's only a matter of time.

This is insane. ICE is out of control here, still. They must leave.

Trump used to be a Democrat but obviously switched parties due to the right wing being cultivated by Christian nationalist propaganda to hate immigrants. Way easier to manipulate these people.

Trump himself is not even a Christian, which makes it even funnier.
Trump was able to take control of our government to enrich himself and his Epstein friends by convincing gullible, low information, and (yes, racist) MAGA voters to blame immigrants for the fact that they’re poor and not the CEOs who have rigged the system against them.
This country isn’t divided between Democrats and Republicans. It’s divided between wealthy people who think it’s fine to do whatever it takes to amass money and power—including sucking up to known pedophiles for access to the elite— and the rest of us suckers who are not amoral monsters.

It is becoming increasingly apparent that the position of the Trump Republican Party is: “constitution, nonstarter.”
Rep. Mark Harris: "Some of these things are nonstarters. Having judicial warrants? To me, hat's a nonstarter. Being able to make off their mask, putting them at risk? That's a nonstarter. I would say anything that's going to hamstring the work of ICE, that's just not going to go anywhere."

Russian terror bombing of Ukraine continues. Ukraine's allies donate generators but not long range missiles to strike Russia's capacity to terrorize. Western media ignore the humanitarian disaster altogether.
Ukraine was rocked by a massive overnight Russian assault, with hundreds of drones and dozens of missiles slamming into the country’s energy system.

Rescue and recovery operations are continuing across the country.

This level of disgusting racism and cruelty didn’t exist in a vacuum, and it didn’t end with Epstein.

Epstein files:

“JEFF wanted, ‘young, fresh meat girls. Virgins.’ He told ■, ‘Don’t bring me any n*ggers.’”
