The ‘Peace President’ killed six more people off the coast of Venezuela this morning. We have no evidence other than his word that they were a threat to anyone, anywhere and also release the Epstein files. Thank you for your attention in this matter!

Confirmed, the "Gaza peace deal" was the same deal offered to Netanyahu and the US repeatdly, but it was turned down by Israel because they wanted to gift Trump (Israeli asset) a perceived victory at the expense of the Israeli hostages and Gaza population.

MEASLES ON THE MOVE AS VACCINATION RATES DECLINE

1563 documented cases but the actual number could be as high as 5,000...and counting.

Measles can lead to pneumonia, encephalitis, immune dysfunction, deafness, and even death.

It is preventable by a safe vaccination

U.S. measles cases continue to climb, with outbreaks across the country

In South Carolina, more than 150 unvaccinated schoolkids are under quarantine after being exposed to measles. Across the U.S., total case counts could be even higher than the official number.

ICE targeted an apartment building near my home. Masked agents in unmarked cars. I've said this before. Democratic Governors & Mayors need to order their local police depts to arrest any & all unidentified & masked alleged ICE agents.

This anonymous denial of due process is deadly.

federal agents appear to have left the immediate area, according to a wgn live feed.

shortly before border patrol deployed tear gas, chicago police had stepped in to separated the masked federal agents from community members. like before, it appears they were also tear-gassed.

If men with guns and masks tried to pull me out of my car, I'd fight back. Courts should reject any claims by the government that this is aggression by the person being detained, resisting arrest, or that they're a flight risk.
