the arrest of journalists in minneapolis, including don lemon, is more evidence that the only move the administration knows how to make is to use force, and does not know how to respond when that force is met with defiance and indifference.

The arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are a test for every MSM member with a platform. If you are not voicing your outrage at this blatant violation of the First Amendment, you are utterly discredited as a journalist.

Recall that Melissa Hortman and her husband were murdered not long ago by a fake cop who showed up at their door looking like this guy
This is from Georgia Fort’s video.
DEA?!? Gotta be a “task force.”

“Independent” is doing too much work in this first wave. They are arresting journalists and just like everything else they’ve done, they’re testing the limits of our resistance by starting wt vulnerable margins.

Seriously, though, if you ever want to see me predictably lose the entirety of my ish in public, try to “wave” a car through against the established rules of traffic. I despise chaotic piety. You’ll kill people just so you can look “nice”.
I. Lose. My. Mind.
Anti social behavior masquerading as being “nice”. They’re literally endangering everybody and thinks it’s okay because manners!

She became known as "Queen Bess" & "Brave Bessie" for the elaborate and dangerous aerial stunts she would perform.

ICE just indiscriminately stopped a citizen at a bus stop in front of the co-op. If this is how they treat the President of the Minneapolis City Council who is legally observing, just think of what they’re doing to everyone else in our City.

[ID 1 to 4 : Four pictures of a woodcarved plump red robin seen from different points of view. It sits on a rectangular base with rounded angles. The bird is very round. It is painted with burnt orange for the chest and a mix of brown and grey for the upper body.]
