i have written this a few times now but the reason JD Vance spends all day posting is that they barely tolerate his presence in the white house and have locked him out of every decision of consequence. he is basically unemployed
Shouldn't you be doing government shit?

Local civilian government knows the police who nominally report to them will side with ICE if forced to choose.

I think we would be better off if that ugly truth became widely understood. But I guess mayors prefer to preserve the illusion of control.

Minneapolis - Border Patrol stops a protester following them, and tells the car it’s their “first and final warning” to quit.

The utter disorganization, incompetence, ill discipline, and lack of training here is staggering.

Being there at all is deliberate provocation. They're not protecting anything. ICE could lie low, or leave entirely. But no, they want to incite a violent response to justify further violence.

🇮🇷 Protests are intensifying in Iran: members of the Kurdistan Freedom Party have created armed groups with the aim of overthrowing the Iranian regime.

Protesters have also set fire to a mosque in Tehran and an administrative building.

Thank you for telling us you neither serve nor protect. Thank you for saying the quiet part out loud. That was state murder in broad daylight, captured from multiple angles by multiple witnesses, and the people of Minneapolis have eyes.

You support murder.

Wonder what Ross' browser history shows about protestors and immigrants and ..groups
NEW: These are ICE agents removing evidence from the shooter's home. They are not DOJ, they are Jonathan Ross's friends and coworkers, not DOJ.

This agent removing Ross's personal computer was reported yesterday Jan 9 for boxing in a volunteer and telling them "I'll dedicate my next arrest to you"

Welcome to Minnesota, fuckers. Also this is super disturbing because the ICE agent's assault rifle appears to fire as he falls down.

This was filmed by a friend near Chicago and Lake last night.

The ChatGPT pull-up commercial is so funny bc if you actually read the advice that scrolls by super fast it’s just like “go to the gym and do pull-ups” but in an instructional tone. This is the revolutionary use case they are spending untold millions of dollars to pitch to the general public

So do I have this right?
Trump invites oil CEOs to the White House for a meeting about how brilliant his Venezuela venture is, then boots out the press when he senses that they are not feeling it.
EXON CEO then goes on to tell him that the plan sucks and they will not be investing at this time... 😂

It's incredibly demoralizing to constantly see the highest institutions of government and academia and the most important and widely seen news outlets knuckle under one after another, but then to see the gulf between that and the bravery of communities and neighbors and teachers - that's something
