Good morning! This is my first post of Bluesky. I am officially getting off twitter. I hate what Musk has done to that platform.

The Trump administration lies and legacy media simply repeat and amplify the lie!

The cold blooded ICE murderer has been identified. www.threads.com/@daghost_off...

Brilliant! Way to get under Pam Bondi’s skin!!!!

As a Canadian 🇨🇦 looking on at what’s happening in the US, I’m so thankful that I’m Canadian and not American.
I am on the True American Democracy Anti-Fascist Side!!

Not the Orange Hitler’s
American Fascist Party Regime!👇👇👇👇👇

This is what happens when a country doesn’t learn from past history.
this is the wrong side

Yeah, I’m pretty sure that holding a disarmed guy down while your buddy shoots him in the back of the head is a crime.

I’m no lawyer, but there are these weird terms like “conspiracy to commit -crime-,” “aiding and abetting,” “harboring,” etc. that may all swiftly apply to this situation.

But the government lies persist. The Trump administration cannot be trusted to tell the truth or to protect anyone who happens to be in American soil. #BoycottFIFA
The Washington Post published a clear video of federal agents removing Alex Pretti's handgun moments before he was fatally shot. There's nothing in the video to suggest Pretti even reached for his weapon.

Reporter: You received a letter from AG Pam Bondi making several demands….

Walz: I would just give a pro tip to the AG. There's 2 million documents in the Epstein files we're still waiting on. Go ahead and work on those

Walz: What side do you want to be on? The side of an all powerful federal government that can kill, injure, menace and kidnap its citizens off the streets or on the side of a nurse at the V.A. who died bearing witness to such government
Haven’t seen many athletes comment on the news in Minneapolis outside of Haliburton, but here’s two time All/Pro Broncos guard Quinn Meinerz, who takes the field in an hour:

In Australia, 41% of EV sales are from Chinese brands. Could Canada be next to see such a surge? We talked to experts to find out.

Klobuchar: "Somehow 50,000 peaceful protesters in 10 below weather were able to march without any problems, and then the next day half a dozen ICE and CBP agents couldn't handle a guy with a cell phone taking video of them and shot him. I think it's pretty obvious what's going on here."

This is another reason why people need to cancel their FIFA tickets. Don’t travel to the USA. It is not a safe country!

DHS EXECUTES WITH IMPUNITY!
Alex Pretti 37, VA ER Nurse, came to the aid of a woman knocked down by DHS, holding a cell phone, was chemically sprayed in the face, assaulted, kicked , punch by 8 DHS agents, shot 10 times died on scene.

ICE is now the most reviled and despicable agency in the US government.

Pam Bondi has 🩸 on her hands. At some point, she will be held to account - let’s hope sooner rather than later.
The lying never stops in this administration.

This is a sign that the U.S. is sinking like the Titanic during this interregnum.
We should no longer follow any rules set by our corrupted Supreme Court!!!! They are in the Epstein files!!
