What George says!
The arrest of Don Lemon is textbook fascism—a brazen attempt to silence reporting on a criminal regime. Stand up for Don, because our rights stand and fall with those of courageous journalists throughout this country.

My late pal Ross often told the story of his EE Prof who earnestly asked an honest and very straightforward question of a student defending their thesis. And it ended up destroying the thesis!

And then I read this!

Remember: the Second Amendment is for conservatives only. A liberal with a gun is a non-sequitur - or a domestic terrorists.

You have been warned.
"7 Times Conservatives Praised Gun-Toting Protesters"

They're attacking Alex Pretti for having a gun. But here, from Zeteo, are some (in)famous moments when Trump and the right treated armed protesters like heroes.

Maybe I missed it, but…

If Good and Pretti really were both domestic terrorists, the FBI would be swarming through their homes and interrogating everyone who ever knew them.

Is that going on..?

No?

They’re willing to kill white people.

“…lynching… was directed at Black people. In Min… the city has declared its support for nonwhite people… The white supremacist administration, has therefore decided to treat white people in the city as race traitors”

Here’s the VA nurse who Trump, Noem, et al want you to believe is a domestic terrorist.

To quote Carlton Heston:

“God damn you all to hell.”

Question: When they brought fugitive Ryan Wedding back to the US from Mexico, why did they need a 757 to do it???

N874TW is a 757 to the US Government.

This angle only makes it worse for ICE...

They sprayed him in the face and dragged him away and then shot him when he was on the ground.
NEW VIDEO: this appears to be the footage from the woman in the pink coat.

ICE just murdered another person.

Note: they continued shooting him after he was laying motionless on the ground.

I’ve written all three of my Congresscritters.

I suggest y’all do the same.
Video appears to show new ICE shooting in Minneapolis
In the video multiple agents are seen trying to pull a person down to the ground before shots are heard ringing out.

1/3 While watching the craziness of the DJT (mis)administration it occurs to me that this is probably the worst time in human history for a First Contact situation to occur.

There are always too many unknowns, but with Trump in charge...
