Any bets that there is a new detention facility being constructed on what is now considered Qatari diplomatic property?🧊

Heartbreaking 💔

For the folks saying politics doesn’t affect you— this is proof that it does.
It impacts everyone.

Prayers up for the love ones, the community and first responders having to deal with this tragedy.

The blast in Hickman County is both a human disaster and a warning sign — of what happens when democracy dies piece by piece and communities lose control over their own lives.

It’s only been a few months since Trump accepted a luxury jet from Qatar.

He said it was “just a gift”.

Today Hegseth announced that Qatar would be building a base on American soil.

To be clear that’s not a gift, that’s a bribe.

This shit is crazy because they're just straight up on video hitting a car that was blocked in the street. The extent as to which DHS now just brazenly puts out lies is utterly obscene.

UPDATE: In emailed statement to me / @reason.com, DHS alleges that WGN-TV producer Debbie Brockman "threw objects at Border Patrol’s car and she was placed under arrest for assault on a federal law enforcement officer."
Screencap of email from DHS public affairs: Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin: “U.S. Border Patrol was conducting immigration enforcement operations and when several violent agitators used their vehicles to block in agents in an effort to impede and assault federal officers. In fear of public safety and of law enforcement, officers used their service vehicle to strike a suspect’s vehicle and create an opening. As agents were driving, Deborah Brockman, a U.S. citizen, threw objects at Border Patrol’s car and she was placed under arrest for assault on a federal law enforcement officer. “This incident is not isolated and reflects a growing and dangerous trend of illegal aliens violently resisting arrest and agitators and criminals ramming cars into our law enforcement officers. These attacks highlight the dangers our law enforcement officers face daily—all while receiving no pay thanks to the Democrats’ government shutdown.”
