Their cruelty knows no bounds.

Pete Hegseth’s Pentagon has ordered trans military members to appear at their separation board hearings in drag, dressed and groomed to the standards of their sex assigned at birth and not their gender identity.

In Chicago, a woman was driving to get coffee when a DHS vehicle fleeing an angry crowd crashed into her car. Armed agents jumped out of the vehicle, yanked her door open, pulled her by the legs out of her car at gunpoint, held her incommunicado for hours, then released her with no charges.

Dayanne Figueroa was on her way to get coffee before heading to work when she encountered a chaotic scene in West Town: heavily armed, masked federal agents making arrests on a residential street.
People yelled as vehicles honked their horn — a sign now used to alert neighbors that immigration federal agents are in the area — and witnesses said federal agents had arrested several landscaper workers presumed to be in the country without authorization.
As Figuero tried to drive through the 1600 block of West Hubbard Street on Friday, Oct. 10, an unmarked vehicle driven by federal agents collided with Figueroa’s as it tried to speed away from a hostile crowd, multiple videos reviewed by the Tribune show.
Seconds after the crash, agents abruptly stopped their vehicle and exited with weapons in hand pointing at Figueroa, a U.S citizen. Agents then forcibly opened her door and pulled her out of the vehicle by her legs without identifying themselves, presenting a warrant or informing her that she was under arrest. As bystanders yelled, “You hit her! We have it on video!” agents ignored the crowd and forced Figueroa into a red minivan and drove away.
Her car was left behind in the middle of the road, her coffee still in the cup holder, and her keys in plain view.

i will never root for a salary cap or for the owners not to spend or the players not to get paid. i hate the dodgers for plenty of reasons but every team should be doing what they’re doing!

Sorry but if you're a baseball fan rooting for a salary cap — or worse, a lockout — bc the Dodgers won you're lame as hell. Grow up

man these people are committed to evil, what is even the point of having the word “evil” if not for this type of shit

The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

MLB owners should be the centerpiece of most serious baseball stories over the next year. We already know every player's name, but the owners of these teams shouldn't be allowed to be anonymous or avoid comment on the important matters at hand. The battle is coming and everyone knows it.
