Let this sink in: in a Tennessee district that Trump won by 22 points in 2024, Aftyn Behn, the Democratic candidate, has closed that gap by *20* points. Only 2 points separate her and her opponent. Republicans & Trump are running scared.

All eyes on Tennessee.

Kristi Noem is guilty of crimes against humanity and needs to face justice.

📌 She made the final call to defy a court order to halt deportation flights, sending people into the hellscape of CECOT, a place the UN has compared to a torture chamber.

Prosecute her and everyone involved.

Making a good argument here that the Tea Party and MAGA were a cultivated psyops campaign on citizens by the elites to control information flow in rural areas.

Chicago: your Cook County Commissioner is up for re-election in the Democratic Primary this coming March.

Ask the candidates running, especially the incumbent, whether they support this crap.
the cook county sheriff's office is the second-largest agency, behind the massive cook county health system.

despite a sagging jail population and the end of the sheriff's electronic monitoring program, sheriff tom dart's budget is set to grow by $64 million, to roughly $815 million.

background:
Cook County chief judge takes over electronic monitoring
On April 1, the Cook County Sheriff’s Office began shuttering one of the country’s largest and most restrictive electronic monitoring programs.

There is a reason why Witkoff did not want any officials with the State Dept or anyone else present during his many meetings w/Putin - he didn’t want witnesses to his treasonous behavior. Highly unusual, but makes perfect sense when you consider that he only cared about Russia.

I hope folks realize that between Trump, Kushner, Hegseth, Witkoff, Noem, RFK, Jr., Kash Patel, and Tulsi Gabbard, this country is almost entirely undefended.
Q: Have you heard this audio that Bloomberg has of Witkoff coaching the Russians on how to appeal to you?

TRUMP: That's a standard thing. He's gotta sell this to Ukraine, he's gonna sell Ukraine to Russia. That's what a dealmaker does. I haven't heard it but I heard it was standard negotiation.

Three things about the Witkoff tapes:

1) It appears Western intelligence services have decided to let Witkoff (and Trump) know they have recordings of their traitorous conversations w/Russia.

2) This Ukraine "deal" was all Witkoff's idea.

3) Congressional leaders should demand he be fired.

You have to ask, why was Witkoff chosen for this critically important role of special envoy to Putin? He had no diplomatic or foreign policy experience. No education on those subjects. So of all people, why him? I think what we all surmised is clear - Putin wanted Witkoff.

NEW:

The DOJ tells Judge James Boasberg that Kristi Noem made the decision that flights that had departed should continue on to El Salvador, in contravention of the court’s orders.
BREAKING:

“After receiving that legal advice, Secretary Noem directed that the AEA detainees who had been removed from the United States before the Court’s order could be transferred to the custody of El Salvador. “
