It's now been four weeks since the deadline set by law and they still haven't fully released the Epstein files because withholding exculpatory evidence is clearly what you do when you're "innocent."

i’ll say it again, jennings is a contemptible liar and it is a disgrace that CNN puts him on television every night to spread bullshit
The thing is, some people can make mistakes, get things wrong, be careless, etc. But that’s not what Jennings did here. Jennings knowingly, purposefully and intentionally lied to utterly distort what was said, which CNN pays him to do every day. CNN is the enabler of this.

So a new 25% tariff on China and India effective immediately? When do these new tariffs start getting collected? This is on all goods from those countries immediately? What about the limited trade deal we just made with China? That’s over now or is this just more bs?

Bunch of men who grew up idolising the Nazis and wishing they could wear their fits whilst watching their little ww2 documentaries have been allowed to take over the us government, this is fucking absurd to try and get away with in 2026

It’s a private militia of the executive branch, being wielded as a weapon against the citizens to try and cause a response so they can inflict more violence and inevitably kill as many “enemies” of the executive branch as they can get away with.
Don't bother arguing about whether ICE is a police force or a military force. It's neither. It behaves as a disorganized, violent mob, cursing, shouting contradictory orders, and attacking unarmed citizens on a whim. It is deployed to create fear and chaos, not to enforce laws or establish order.

I've noticed that ICE agents keep yelling "18 USC § 111" at people filming them. I'd like to see the memo they all got on that talking point, and I'd like to know who sent it. Filming ICE or alerting your neighbors to their presence doesn't violate § 111.

AOC: ICE has less accountability than virtually any law enforcement agency in the U.S., yet they are some of the most well-funded, operating with impunity—and we just saw them murder an American citizen in cold blood in the street.

The protests will grow.
All it takes is a spark.
6 years ago it was the murder of George Floyd, caught on camera, just a mile from where this happened.
Now it's ICE murdering Renee Good.
Both times, MAGA and Trump sided with the murderer.
Enough. We have the numbers.

A friend in Minneapolis just sent me this video. Looks like thousands have come together for a vigil after an ICE agent shot and killed 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good. This was my neighborhood for several years before coming to Portland.

Dear US Military -
It is beyond clear that this president and many in the administration are actively acting against their paths to the Constitution and the interests of our nation.
It is time for an intervention.
Please. We need some breathing room.

AOC: This has now become what we feared most about ICE for a long time—that it would be used as an anti-civilian force with no accountability. At the end of the day, what we saw today was a murder, and murders in cold blood need to be prosecuted.
