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.

The President orders the murder of random boat occupants in international waters. He oversees the kidnapping and resultant death of people living on American soil. He has halted aid to starving children in Africa and elsewhere, directly leading to their deaths. He wants to limit who gets health care

If you’re in a position to deny ICE thugs service in your businesses, do it! Not one bottle of water, not one slice of pizza…and no restroom keys.

Make them feel the pain they’re inflicting on others.

Blatant incompetence all around

The man who was already detained in the van did not identify himself, Thomas said.
Once Brockman was handcuffed and placed in the van, the agents pulled out, clipping the rear bumper off of a stopped car partially blocking their path and speeding away past an approaching elongated CTA bus and through the busy intersection.

While Trump is busy licking his wounds in public, this week his loyalist have fought tooth and nail to prevent the US congress from releasing the Epstein files and have declared anti-fascism terrorism punishable by arbitrary arrest or assassination.

This is authoritarianism, plain and simple.

Trump is weaponizing the DOJ to attack AG James for doing her job and holding him to account. Using the federal government for his revenge tour is wrong and dangerous.

Letitia James pursued Trump. Then she was indicted.

The Democratic New York attorney general made her investigation of the Republican president a centerpiece of her campaign.

This is very bad. Trump just put through Bill HR1526. CALL YOUR SENATORS!
This Bill pulls the Capacity of our APolitical Circuit Judges to intervene in any way. Their powers stripped. They have been the only Guardrails keeping The Constitution alive. If it goes thru we are fully fascist.
