Trump regime ICE troops in Minneapolis chased an unarmed civilian and shot him from behind, hitting his leg, as he ran inside fearing for his life. His family which includes a pregnant woman and children were inside. They called 911 for help as the regime thugs terrorized them.

The message from the White House this morning is that, once again, it falls on ordinary American citizens to remain calm and professional when dealing with the heavily armed agents of the government because they are very emotional and might fly off into a murderous rage at the slightest insult.

Disappointed to see Jon Stewart & co joke about masking in public. I do it for my medically fragile daughter (Batten Disease). People not masking properly led to her getting pneumonia, which led to her being on life support, which led to me getting price quotes on her cremation just in case.
