FYI, all law enforcement already treats Black Americans this way. Welcome!

Wow. Greg Bovino admits on camera that his agents can detain people if you look scared, change your demeanor, or grip a steering wheel too tight.

As his unmasked agents walk around with large guns to scare you, they may arrest you just for that — even if you're a U.S. citizen.

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

You know, this could really go sideways. Bolton is a psychopath and has a tonnnnnnnnnn of dirt on Trump and the GOP.
I mean, it would be f’ing awesome if it goes sideways.

MSNBC is reporting that the DOJ is seeking an indictment of John Bolton.

I can’t stand that guy, and still: THIS IS SO WRONG.

Imagine being "America first" but allowing Qatar to build a military base on American soil in Idaho.
Guess all you need to occupy US soil is to give a plane to donald. This is the dumbest most irresponsible shit ever. This must be reversed in 2028.

Yeah. This is a real thing and a real problem.

I find it amusing to watch the harsh criticism of the Comey and James indictments after heavy pressure from the White House coming from the same folks who a couple of years ago were demanding that President Biden force Garland to indict our political adversaries without real investigations and to fire him if he didn't and replace him with someone who would.

A lot of folks on the left have no problem with authoritarianism. In fact, they love it. They just want to be the ones who exercise it.

#AZ07 is without a voice in Congress because #CowardJohnson lies & refuses to swear in our representative @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social

Johnson is terrified of the number 218.

Democrats @democrats.org · 15h

House Republicans just adjourned another pro forma session.

This marks the SIXTH time they’ve refused to swear in Rep-elect Adelita Grijalva, who would be the tie-breaking vote to release the Epstein files.

Once we get rid of the fascists, assuming we do, what comes next will not be the same as what came before.

Mini corn dogs, mozzarella sticks, veggies & dip, prosciutto, brie, lemon blueberry goat cheese, wine for me, pineapple fanta for them. And popcorn, of course.

Not sure which movie yet, they are discussing.
