I live here....the cops are attacking and brutalizing us alongside ICE. They have done absolutely nothing to combat ICE, they are protecting them. The hostility isn't about care for the people. It's an ego thing/wanting to be the top authority. They are on the same side.

NEW: Abigail Spanberger this afternoon ordered that all state agencies leave ICE's 287(g) program.
This means that the state police (and some other agencies) will no longer be empowered to detain and arrest people for ICE.
Big, big move by the governor within weeks of coming into office.

Virginia’s New Governor Ends ICE Program. Local Contracts Remain, For Now. - Bolts
Abigail Spanberger left the 287(g) program, which empowered state law enforcement to detain immigrants. Will Democrats also bar local police and sheriffs from the program?

All right, things have gone beyond grim at this point.
Five weeks into 2026, and only 2 sales. We wouldn't make it at that rate in a good year. This is already not a good year.
And it comes on top of two extraordinarily bad years for us.
Add to that? Things are grim for everyone here.

You don’t need to be, say, patrolling for ICE or personally delivering groceries yourself, but I shouldn’t have to wonder if you’re even interacting with regular people who are doing those things. Your words and actions make it clear that you’re not really one of us.

I have been fairly critical of some elected officials during all of this bullshit, but the biggest difference between them is the good ones have seen the shit we’re dealing with firsthand and know what regular people are doing on the ground. A lot of them can’t even speak to what we’re all doing.

Nobody should be praising her. She knew for years who Epstein was. She quietly asked Bill for years to stop hanging around him, and he refused. It was only when Bill's connection to Epstein became public a few years ago that she divorced him.
In an interview with NPR, Melinda French Gates confirmed that she ended her marriage with Bill Gates because of allegations contained in the Epstein files.

1. Always point your weapon downrange
2. Do not point your weapon at anything you do not intend to shoot
3. Don’t put your finger on the trigger unless you intend to shoot
Guns are not for threatening compliance for unarmed people doing things you don’t like
