Illegal ethnic cleansing - a war crime
This is a scheduled pogrom
I know all eyes are on Minneapolis, but there's a fast-approaching nightmare in Springfield, Ohio.

Trump is revoking protected status for tens of thousands of Haitians living there on Feb. 3.

Reportedly, on Feb. 4, 1000 ICE agents are arriving to remove this population. Ethnic cleansing.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

RAND PAUL: If a country bombed our air defense missiles, captured & removed our president, & blockaded our country, would that be considered an act of war?

RUBIO: We just don't believe this operation comes anywhere close to the constitutional definition

PAUL: Of course it would be an act of war!

What she videos is horrific. It's what one might expect in North Korea but not the US. She's so brave to speak out - knowing that she will now most probably be a target of aggression and slander.

Does ICE = Gestapo?
Everyone is 12 theory of American politics remains strong.

Why is it that so many Reform MPs are complete weirdos?
Andrew Rosindell - MP for Romford - was arrested in 2022 on suspicion of indecent & sexual assault, rape, abuse of trust and misconduct in public office.

Prosecutors concluded the evidence "did not meet the threshold for criminal charges".

Another Tory loser who has found his forever home.

If this is true, then it is outrageous. How can the US have become such an unreliable ally - or is it now just treachery. I never thought I would ever say that about one of our closest ally. Is it time for the US to be expelled from the 5 eyes?
Now more than ever, we're a two timing, back stabbing, and disloyal nation without integrity.

I really don't like to say it, but it's time for all American allies to force close ALL American military bases in their respective countries. Maybe that would send a powerful enough message to the Felon in chief.

This makes no sense…

An MP can wake up one morning, ditch the party you elected them for, & sign up to a completely different manifesto…

No thanks

If they defect to a different party, we should get a vote

Sign the petition & help make that law.

What worries me with ice is that the public has no way of knowing if they are really ice. They have unmarked vehicles, wear masks, show no warrants or legal paperwork, no identification, and appear very unprofessional and violent. Anyone could be impersonating ice to terrorize our communities.

The first thing Virginia Spanberger did after being sworn in as Governor of Virginia was repeal Youngkin’s executive order requiring state and local law enforcement to cooperate with ICE.

This is the kind of leadership Democratic governors nationwide should be emulating.

America’s ICE age is here…

It wasn’t just the killing of Renee that shocked us

It was watching how rapidly it was defended, what it reveals about ICE & why we never seem to learn the lessons from history

…plus why Americans feel helpless.

We all want peace for Ukraine.

For this, Ukraine must be in a position of strength.

Today we table our proposal for a €90 billion loan for 2026 and 2027.

For a strong Ukraine on the battlefield and at the negotiating table.
