I'm not a journalist or a politician. I'm just a nosy American woman with a big bookshelf and stellar pattern recognition; an artist who refuses to create in complicity. Tracking corruption and human rights issues in the US.

The worst of what we feared is here. It’s time for any of my colleagues sitting on the sidelines to do something and stand up.

A retired Minneapolis couple who had guns pointed at them by ICE in a church parking lot.

"They were obviously not trained at all. I've known many police officers in my life. These people were right off the streets."

"They had the professional demeanor of criminals."

I always wonder what a devil’s advocate wants in response to “President A, B, and/or C did that too!”

What moment creates a stronger call for change than the moment of enlightenment on an issue? And if you already knew that systemic issues exist, why aren’t you with us and speaking out?

Donald Trump posted about Ilhan Omar TWELVE times in the last 30 days on his Truth Social account. In total, he has created 55 posts mentioning her between X and TS.

In recent posts, he refers to her as a fake and criminal congresswoman, whose alleged crimes are continuing to go unanswered.

So the government shutdown doesn't affect the ICE thugs? Then we have no government. ABOLISH ICE and throw the trash administration in the dumpster.

It’s important to be clear that Trump’s language motivates this behavior. He’s been begging for someone to do this, and worse, for months via social media.

Do we have a President, or a loose-cannon, internet mafia boss with the actual criminally insane he rants and raves about at his beck and call?
