This is what ice is doing

George was just trying to get to work.

ICE pepper-sprayed him, dragged him from his car, locked him in a detention center, and placed him on suicide watch. He even missed his young daughter’s birthday in the process.

This man is a veteran and American citizen. Don't look away.

"They put me on suicide watch and they put me in the cell, I'm naked, in like a hospital dress and just a concrete bed with like a mattress, like a thin mattress and, they leave the light on 24/7."

Why has Dominion Voting Systems been settling defamation lawsuits with Trump allies who falsely claimed the company stole the 2020 election?

Because Dominion has just been bought by a company run by a former GOP election official.

Be warned.

I wondered how we'd be punished if it didn't receive the peace prize.
Now I know.
A Qatari base in Idaho.

It feels very unusual. It feels smarmy, underhanded; it feels like payback for the peace treaty. It smells funny.

Why is no one talking about a Qatari airforce base in Idaho?

Was the plane like escrow?
And the peace treaty the purchase price of that base?

I can't believe this. This is insane. Wtf????

What the actual F•CK did I just read?!
A foreign base on American soil?!
Qatar?!?
Who approved this?
Whose idea was this?
Is THIS what you have to do to get a plane out of them?!

I hate it here.

He didn't "LOSE" anything. It was never his to lose. It's not a competition.
But if it were, he'd be in last place.

Jon Cooper @joncooper-us.bsky.social · 1d

Yes, so embarrassing.

imjustagirl.bsky.social @imjustagirl.bsky.social · 1d

Welp, too bad for them. He's the Pope. He does what he wants. That's the end of that.

imjustagirl.bsky.social @imjustagirl.bsky.social · 1d

It is!💙

imjustagirl.bsky.social @imjustagirl.bsky.social · 1d

I salute the committee, and wonder if their deliberation went along the lines of "it's between this nun and Maria Cortina; let's give it to the Venezuelan. He's been bombing their boats."

Look at this! Sounds very familiar in two directions:
Taylor and Phantom of the Paradise (sort of), right?

(Then republicans began to bicker and lie in court.)
