Pariedolia. My IKEA toilet brush.
Saw a small face with caterpillar body attached. This resulted. Drawing again -slightly. Yay.

Whimsical garden drawing/illustration of a kitty caterpillar & a Virginia Tiger Moth having a conversation. One of several fireflies hovering in the scene.

If you can't yet see the 1933
Germany parallels, you either skipped history, or you're disturbingly comfortable repeating it.

No fingerprint or DNA tests were conducted in Jeffrey Epstein's cell after his death. Sus AF.

Release the Epstein files. Now.

donald trump’s fictional description of the character of Portland is a page out of the authoritarian playbook.

Lie about conditions to justify a military invasion and create the chaos that that was actually missing before you invade.

Classic dictator💩

Who is she?

Did they crash into her to arrest her or was she arrested to cover the fact that they crashed into her?

It takes 3 men with AR15s for a 120 lb, unarmed female. This is how patheticly weak this Administration is. Property Damage, no Due Process, no Warents, all unconstitutional.

How can they even sleep at night?

These are violent undisciplined people (ICE) who have been given free reign. We are all at risk- they did not even verify her identity or citizenship status b/f doing ANYTHING in this video. I think no one should be treated this way- but in any case being a citizen is clearly no protection.

The goal is to provoke at all costs, in time for primetime TV.

This is the handiwork of Miller, an acquiescent Trump, and 70 million woefully ignorant or amoral people.

In my 60+ years, I’ve never witnessed anything so tragic and frightening in the United States.

Godspeed.

This is not only dangerous and illegal, it puts everyone at risk. Local law enforcement needs to start arresting them.

ICE tactics in Chicago are escalating.

Crashing into a woman’s car so they can grab her is unconscionable!

They have fired the staff of the CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report and 70 Epidemic Intelligence Service officers, who are disease detectives that respond to outbreaks around the world.

I cannot emphasize enough how dangerous it is to dismantle our disease surveillance infrastructure.
