🚨ALERT: there are 3 ICE / US Park Police vehicles stopped on BW Parkway near Cheverly. Park police can do traffic stops on BW Parkway between Baltimore & DC and are actively collaborating with ICE.

WARNING: Commercial vehicles are not allowed on the parkway & are therefore at higher risk for stops.

It’s beyond pathetic. The mainstream media, on the whole, is comprised of feckless cowards and shameless hypocrites.

BREAKING: A Trump-pardoned Capitol insurrectionist was arrested for threatening to **murder** Democrat leader Hakeem Jeffries this week

Gee, who would have thought that “forgiving” criminals for attacking Congress might encourage them to keep attacking?

Two days ago, he took a shit on the American people. Today, he began demolishing the People’s House. That’s all he does. He shits on people, and he destroys things. Bcuz he’s a horrible person. I blame him a lot for the death & destruction he’s caused. I blame his enablers & his appeasers even more.

Yes, people really need to start making this a regular post.

General Strike is what we need the most.

Whoa. Chicago mayor calls for a general strike; now we're talking

Chicago Mayor Issues Defiant Call For A General Strike

It was an audacious proposal, given that the U.S. has never held a true, nationwide general strike.

ICE is now the 13th largest military in the world on its own.

This is the best political news I’ve seen in a very long time — so please pass it on👇

Each state can limit Citizens United in their own state & they don’t have to wait for other states to do it.

Saturday we made a worldwide statement. Now we follow up by voting Blue in all the states that have elections this year. City Counsels, Judges, state legislators, Governors, Ballot Questions, and more are at stake in several states. ALL of you in such states must vote & vote carefully.

There were tons of cars with folks in support of the protests. Very few pro-pedophile drivers.

Former Chris Christie aid Kevin Tomafsky sentenced to ten years in prison for raping a 6 year old.

His victim will still be a minor when he’s released.

There’s something wrong with the sentencing guidelines when a man who does this to a child can be out before the child even reaches adulthood.
