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.

“When your ‘bug’ consistently affects anti-Trump content, Epstein references, and anti-ICE videos, you’re looking at either spectacular coincidence or systems that have been designed to flag and suppress specific political content.”

This administration is now 40 days past the deadline to release the full Epstein files. The lawlessness in our streets goes all the way to the top.

ICE is now brazenly and openly intimidating peaceful observers for daring to speak. This is what unchecked power sounds like when it know the public is watching. Our silence is their goal.

The agent who appeared to initiate the altercation with Pretti, and fires the fifth shot, can also be seen in footage wearing a bodycam.

Let me be clear: we want strong trans-Atlantic ties. The U.S. will remain Europe’s partner and ally. But Europe need to adapt to the new realities. Europe is no longer Washington’s primary center of gravity.

Greg is right.
I'm calling bullshit on the media narrative that Trump is "pivoting" and "deescalating" on his ICE raids. The threshold is this: As long as the military occupations and the treatment of US cities as enemy territory continue, there's no pivot. ICE out. 1/

Donald Trump Is Frightened
Trump wants to appear eager to minimize out-of-control clashes between government militias and protesters. But he doesn’t want to stop the things causing those clashes in the first place.

Is Trump's ‘Board of Peace' an effort to curtail Europe’s middle powers?

This should be a bigger story:

White collar criminals are running free so that Donald Trump can pursue his cruel immigration agenda.

Trump is reassigning federal law enforcement officers who go after rich criminals to ICE.

I’m calling for an investigation.

"Team Trump’s authoritarian project is failing. They apparently imagined Americans would cheer or cower in the face of violent repression, but the opposite has happened."

I like the way @nicholasgrossman.bsky.social captures how ICE brutality is resonating deep in MAGA-adjacent info spaces:
Why were Renée Good and especially Alex Pretti the ICE killings that broke through, resonating in non-political spaces? Why is this the time the Trump regime's lies failed, and what does it mean for MAGA? Is Minnesota a turning point?

I explore that and more in @liberalcurrents.com.

De belasting voor privéjets wordt door de luchtvaartlobby ook wel de “jaloezie belasting” genoemd.

Want er is een recht op vervulling? En het is totaal logisch dat we als maatschappij de kosten betalen?

Exactly right, and therefore important not to give credit for an investigation of an obvious atrocity. Appropriate responses are apologies, resignations, firings, impeachments. The individuals who killed people should be tried before a judge and jury.
Okay, so this is an authoritarian playbook trick, once the evidence is overwhelming say everyone needs to wait for the official investigation then either fix it or attack it when its completed. Same shit Russian pulled with MH17 and chemical attacks in Syria, very predictable.
Reporter: Will Stephen Miller be apologizing to the family of Alex Pretti for calling him an assassin?

Leavitt: This incident remains under investigation.
