Where Antifa are laid to rest! Visited with my husband and sons last year, such brave soldiers fighting fascism!

In fact he denied he knew anything about Project 2025 and promised to bring prices down & release the Epstein files… then did the opposite as soon as he gained power. NO MANDATE!!!

In Australia if a politician lies on the campaign trail and breaks even one tiny promises when in power… they’re gone!

I know everything is getting worse and Trump is trying to dismantle America, but all of this is a sign of a very weak, desperate Presidency that realizes it's unpopular and has lost the majority.

The economy sucks, the Epstein Files aren't released, and people didn't vote for a MAGA dictatorship.

Kind of wonder what the media reaction would have been if Biden accidentally publicly ordered Garland to prosecute his enemies.

The most frustrating thing about this war is that the US could step in forcefully now with harsh sanctions against Russia and a large military package for Ukraine with ranged weapons as the centrepiece, and the war would end soon with a Russian defeat.

Think Miller needs to send in a few more battalions. Maybe Hegseth can send some elite units. Things are getting dangerous in Portland

Yes, I’m in love with the American courts (other than 6 of the SCOTUS)… almost every other judge has been superb!

Reverend David Black, other faith leaders, journalists, and protestors have joined a class action lawsuit alleging ICE violated their First Amendment rights during protests outside a detention center.

The brutality of this regime is on full display.

It was a beautiful Sunday in Portland. Farmer’s markets, the Portland Marathon, peaceful protests, and some views of Mt. Hood. This city is vibrant, peaceful, and resilient. We do not need a federal occupation, and we sure as hell don’t want one.

Trump on Greta Thunberg: "She's just a troublemaker. She's no longer into the environment, now she's into this? She has an anger management problem. I think she should see a doctor ... she's so crazy."

The resistance fought valiantly to push back the fascist forces, risking arrest & harm. The fascists tried beating them, tear gassing, and water cannons to push them back. The resistance was armed with only signs, flags, and the strength of their bravery. #3E #GeorgiaProtests

Sen. Mark Kelly: "In Alaska, folks have received letters that their premiums are going up from $600 a month to $4,000 a month. That's unaffordable. And in my state of Arizona, 109,000 people are likely to lose their healthcare."

Yes that’s it, they’re frightened incompetent thugs! Everybody out of their cars, critical mass, no violence, screaming and yelling let him go… ICE will run away! Also, how the fuck are plain clothed masked fat men allowed to kidnap people off the street with zip ties in America?????

What the fuck kind of cops pulls up in a Nissan Rogue wearing Vans in a MASK calling themselves zip tying people?!
