Horrific. Being done with our tax dollars and in our name.
ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.

I know I’m a weirdo but I love flying out of Logan Airport so much. Terminal B is my BOO. It’s so chill in here. I be having whole convos with the TSA people. The bartender is like “your usual?” A whole vibe.

Wait a minute...you mean to tell me thousands of the most beautiful women on earth didn't all randomly decide to join Twitter in 2023?????
X rolled out a new feature overnight showing where accounts are based. This network of “Trump-supporting independent women” that claimed to be “real Americans” are based in Thailand.
The photos were stolen from European models & posts pushed pro-Trump lines while targeting Islam and LGBTQ people.

There are plenty of conservative Black folks in this country, and there would be a whole lot more Black Republicans if the party weren’t so damn racist!

BREAKING:
Sen. Elissa Slotkin says police responded to her home tonight in response to a bomb threat. Slotkin wasn't at home at the time.
This is two days after Trump said Slotkin and other Democrats committed "seditious conspiracy, punishable by death."

Not going to read too much into it, obviously Trump is the worst man alive, and is going to revert to saying the most odious shit imaginable in like an hour, but it's funny that this is coming a couple hours after 90 democrat losers voted to say "socialism is bad" for no reason.
