FYI: Dems in the senate can't defund ICE. ICE is funded by the Big Ugly Bill. Shutting down DHS on this vote wouldn't touch ICE, but it would shut down FEMA, TSA, Coast Guard, etc. Shutting down ICE requires taking back Congress in the midterms. Dismantling DHS requires the White House in 2028.

Renee Good was shot 3 times by ICE
The first two shots were non lethal. One to her left forearm & another to right breast
The final shot entered the left side of her head & exited the right side
He didn’t have to keep shooting. He was out of the vehicle’s path before the kill shot
That’s murder

Oligarchy (noun):
A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

He'll start a war to:

2. Steal oil
3. Justify emergency powers
4. Justify use of the AEA for deportation/internment
5. Help the drug lord he just pardoned

The Supreme Court blocked the Trump regime 6-3 from deploying hundreds of National Guard troops in Chicago, citing an 1878 law which bans the use of the military for domestic policing. The ruling casts doubt on the viability of similar deployments in other U.S. cities. Hell, yeah 👏👏

“He raped me.”
“Donald J Trump had raped her along with Jeffrey Epstein.”
“She was found with her head ‘blown off’… there was no way it was a suicide.”
Now we’re starting to see why Trump was hiding the Epstein files, and it probably gets much worse.

The White House says the Kennedy Center board vote was “unanimous”…

The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.
