I just signed the petition demanding Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor stops hiding and FINALLY testifies to US Congress about his relationship with Epstein. The victims of this abuse must come first. Add your name now.

And as for this, "the market" is our market, the European single market.
You slammed the door on the way out, talking about #Canzuk and the Commonwealth and that you didn't need us. You refuse the obligations of the market
And no, this will not undermine the TCA and nobody is saying that.

Federal agents wearing jungle-warfare hats in Minneapolis. Blood type patches, despite little evidence that they would ever be needed. Camo, again in Minneapolis, where lush woodlands do not exist.

ICE’s theater of war
Camo and hats for jungle combat do not make sense in American cities. But they are key to dressing for the war ICE has imagined.

That's how it went down from what I saw.
ICE violently pushed a woman to the ground.
Pretti filmed it and tried to help her.
When he tried to help her.
ICE agents pepper sprayed him.
Multiple officers tackled him to the floor.
They executed him.
These are the facts as we saw them.

Make no mistake: Trump is not calling off his genocide. He's just chastising Noem for putting a guy in charge who revealed his power level too soon. He's got nine months to go before midterms, he's got to slow his roll as he figures out how many ICE agents he needs to patrol key voting districts.

How are they getting this detailed intelligence on federal capabilities? It must be a professional, well-funded, tightly organized insurgency, with sophisticated command and control, activated cells, OPSEC, and jargon, and stuff. Yeah, that's it.
Here's how to identify some crowd control munitions, canisters of which federal agents have left on the ground after deploying them against people in Minnesota. bit.ly/3YWp1jE

If you act unreliable - like Trump - nobody wants to make a deal with you if it means relying on your word.
The destruction of the deal.

Security guarantees from Trump can’t be relied on. He treats any decision point as an opportunity for extortion.
The Trump admin has indicated to Ukraine that US security guarantees are contingent on Kyiv first agreeing a peace deal that would likely involve ceding the Donbas region to Russia…
