one of my strongest beliefs is that we're in our situation right now bc some of the most prominent talking heads (e.g. joe rogan, andrew schulz) are learning about politics in their 40s and 50s, instead of their teens and early 20s, and we have to go along for the ride as they learn basic things

ICE is running a “conveyor belt” of illegally detained Minnesota families.

Agents are arresting entire families with legal status and immediately shipping them off to Texas to deny them legal representation and avoid the federal courts in Minnesota.

The cruelty is endless.

There’s no justification for shooting someone ten times in the back.

There’s no justification for shooting someone ten times in the back.

The debate about what Alex Pretti did or didn’t do is irrelevant.

The agents committed murder.

It wasn’t a “bad shoot”. It was a killing

My alarm bells ring when Congress or Congress critters give a nice sounding name to anything in Congress.

USA PATRIOT Act = anti-American domestic spy state

REAL ID Act = you’re to be treated as a less real American unless you have the right ID

Bank Secrecy Act = no banking secrecy for you

Congress do your jobs. Fight for us or else. This isn't a request, it's a demand. You have congressional oversight authority afforded to you by our Constitution. Anyone preventing you from that authority is a traitor to the constitution and should be tried as such. The penalty for treason is death.

Hey Chris! Can you focus your microphone on the CEOs who run the private prisons? Can we ask what measures they are taking for the safety and mental well being of the children in their “care”?

Chief Justice John Roberts turns 71 today.

Two decades ago, I warned the Senate that confirming Roberts to the Supreme Court would be a disaster for working people.

I'm sad to say I was proven right. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ir5kmPdRJLw

imo firing Miller would be a potential extinction level event for the WH but I hope they're stupid enough to do it anyway
I think the way to get rid of Miller is for Trump to find out that everyone thinks that Miller is the real president. No way Trump can handle that ego blow.
And it’s pretty clear that someone, or more than one, inside the White House is no longer working with him

“I don’t do politics.”

Yes you do.

Low wages? That’s politics.
High prices? That’s politics.
War? That’s politics.

The world won’t spare you for not “doing” politics. Stay informed.

Listening to the party of Kyle Rittenhouse, the NRA, and "Second Amendment solutions to tyranny" piously explain how irresponsible it is for a licensed gun-owner to bring a holstered firearm to a protest just reinforces the Wilhot quote:
