It’s the immediate timing of one day Ashli Babbitt is a movement martyr and 24 hours later Renee Good should have just followed (contradictory) orders that’s really getting to me.

Jesus what is wrong with this country. That looks on the man’s face is haunting. How can you see that on your fellow human beings and keep going?

just had my first major real-life encounter with an ICE convoy and the sheer creepiness of a bunch of men in masks rolling through your community hard to convey in texts. they have half the city on their tail at all times at least

If you see JD Vance at press conference today smearing Renee Nicole Good, a mother of 3, please remember my warning that Vance is much more dangerous and evil than many grasp

Watched the J.D. Vance brief from the White House. Disgusting .. and every word needs a disclaimer.

This is the same guy who admitted he lied about Haitians “eating cats and dogs.” Once you invent racist smears for political gain, you lose all credibility.

I’m glad that the NYT talked to Trump, it’s useful to have him articulate his narcissistic fascist philosophy in detail, out loud, but as far as I could see, they didn’t ask him about the Epstein files & that feels like a big mistake. He’s clearly succeeded in pushing them out of the news

The state in their view has the right to do whatever it wants to any group that isn’t favored. That means immigrants and minorities, but it also means liberals—especially the ones who have the audacity to side with the aforementioned immigrants and minorities.

the Vice President sincerely thinks that liberal gay women deserve to die. he would say this about literally any of us, no matter what happened to us. the federal government wants us to die.
Vance on the ICE officer shooting and killing a US Citizen:

"The idea that this was not justified is absurd, and I think everybody knows it in their heart."

good for you @pbump.com. i know it wasn’t your intention but this was an act of bravery and profound decency. cable news is relentlessly dehumanizing and soul-corroding; we need as many examples as we can to remind ourselves that we are still human beings.

There are multiple direct quotes referring to her as "wife", yet the text written by the journalist references "ex-husband", but the wife as "her current partner".

If anyone referred to her "husband", would you expect them to refuse to refer to him as such until they verified a marriage license?

What do you say about a university that praises JD Vance, refuses to distance itself from Leslie Wexner, Jeffrey Epstein's closest associate, & rushes to save him from being subpoenaed in their sexual abuse wrestling scandal the school behaved abysmally on? I say that school is morally bankrupt.

they will keep killing liberal women until there are consequences

ICE agents CANNOT be allowed to walk away from this with impunity. arrests MUST HAPPEN or women's lives mean nothing to this country

In any other context, a trades worker who married a widow so she could stay home with three children would be lauded for displaying traditional family values.

The hypocrisy is deafening.
The no-angeling is already in full swing.

so we arrest other masked men, accuse them of being the guy, and say if they're not him, tell us where the guy is

Q: Is there anything stopping state law enforcement from conducted an independent investigation even if the feds don't want it?

JACOBSON: Without assistance from the FBI, we would be at a loss to be able to initiate & conduct a thorough investigation. It would be very difficult if not impossible

Ellison: "State authorities can investigate anyway. We don't need their authority. It's at least arguable that there's a violation of MN statues here. All of them depend on an investigation though. And the federal govt can't stop MN from doing it's own, but I would hope it wouldn't come to that."

I’m joining Rep. @robinkelly.house.gov to introduce articles of impeachment against Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem and will use every lever available to end the terror ICE has unleashed on our communities.

If you thought Kyle Rittenhouse was just some innocent kid being swept up in a larger political issue, and his actions were lamentably forced upon him, then how are you processing his continued celebration tour around killing people?

ICE needs to be abolished, to be sure, but we also have to deal with how the FBI and DOJ are thoroughly corrupted now, and that won't change without a massive counter-purge and reconstruction of federal law enforcement writ large. New political appointees at the top will not be sufficient.
