These fucking thugs. They just go on TV and threaten people’s lives. May they never know a moment’s fucking peace.
Homan: "We gotta stop the hateful rhetoric. Saying this officer is a murderer is dangerous. It's just ridiculous. It's gonna infuriate people more which means there's gonna be more incidents like this."

NEW: It appears billionaire Bill Ackman has donated $10k to a GoFundMe for Jonathan Ross, the ICE agent who killed Renee Good.
Ackman has reposted the fundraiser but hasn’t posted about his own donation.

TWISTED BY LOVE (Tubi) At around the 29 minute mark, this contains maybe the worst movie blooper I’ve ever seen. The scene ends, the actors talk about the take, the director resets, and they do another take. It’s all left in the edit.

I think, if I’m being honest, MST3K (and its various spin-offs) is my favorite show, the same way Binding of Isaac is honestly my favorite video game; the sheer volume of time I’ve spent on it dwarfs the time I’ve spent on any other show/game.

This is exactly right.
They haven't settled for dim brutes who blindly follow orders regardless of the law. That's what they want. That's what they got. There's no reforming or improving it now.
Democrats need to investigate, defund, and ultimately disband the president's brownshirt brigade.

People might argue that ICE is not recruiting quality agents.
But I would insist that they are in fact successfully recruiting the exact sort of person needed to carry out the mission: reactionary, angry, violent people who don’t believe in democracy.

Like yes as much as I personally hated it, there was a sizeable constituency of Democratic primary voters in 2020 who felt like a Biden victory would be return to "normal" on its own volition.
That constituency has long since been gone, and Democrats need to stop pretending that it will reemerge.

The reactionary centrist logic is simple: if the left does something bad it’s the left’s fault, and if the right does something bad, it’s also the left’s fault for making them do it. It’s a simple formula and once you see it every one of their arguments is the same

Well, that's a stark admission.
"The question that you're basically asking is, can our cops arrest them? From a legal perspective, yes. From a practical perspective...they have bigger guns than we do." That's where we're at.

State and local law enforcement know the communities they serve. They’ve built the trust and know how to keep us safe.
As Minnesotans express their first amendment rights, I encourage you to remain peaceful and know that local law enforcement has one goal in mind: your safety.

They won't have the numbers to occupy the nation and force everyone to comply, and that's why they're engaged in such an aggressive show of force. They're hoping we all get cowed into submission and do their work of suppression ourselves.

It’s probably a bad sign for humanity that the main job of the Vice President of the United States is to shitpost on the world’s leading CSAM generator.
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

if only there had been a movement and momentum several years ago to downsize police budgets, clear out the white supremacists and de-militarize local law enforcement
The elephant in the room is that mayors and governors across the country have very good reason to question the loyalty and allegiances of the state and local police forces and that’s one of the impediments to doing anything about the current occupations

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.

I know that the real function of party leaders, the one that they can't talk about, is fundraising, and that their baffling behavior is explained as them trying to avoid doing anything that could even possibly upset any rich people who pay them.
