Amazon Web Services hosts massive surveillance systems for both ICE and DHS.

Citizens Bank provides nearly $1 trillion in credit & bonds to private prison companies.

AT&T has a $147 million contract to provide communications services to DHS.

Know who is profiting from ICE’s cruelty.

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

“I just checked—it turns out that Art. II, Sec. 1 of the Constitution of the United States does *not* say ‘The executive Power shall be vested in a bunch of sociopaths who think they can do whatever the f*ck they want and make sh*t up as they go along.’” — George Conway

To those blaming Walz for not mobilizing the Guard, he did that six days ago. I have to say it's disturbing to see people angry at Walz instead of the government agents that just executed a man. As though we should all be experts about what to do when a secret police force invades an American city.

Van Hollen: "They really think the American people are stupid. I mean, we can all see the video. We saw the video with Renee Good. We saw the video with Alex Pretti. The real domestic terrorists are in the White House right now."

I am watching what is happening in Minneapolis on Ali Velshi and one of the ICE officers (off camera) literally says, “It’s like Call of Duty. Pretty cool huh?” as they shoot whatever it is they are shooting. Agents walking around, guns unholstered for no reason. This is insanity

Let’s see, Venezuela take over, and wanting to take Greenland and at home he’s storming states with shock troops. Clearly we have an idiot in office that will kill us all.

Was the operation legal?

Almost certainly illegal under UN charter. Will anything be done? Doubtful.

US is justifying the kinetic operation as “self defense against imminent attack” which *does* fall under POTUS authority… though, usually not when invading a sovereign nation.

It’s not about drugs. If it was, Trump wouldn’t have pardoned one of the largest narco traffickers in the world last month.

It’s about oil and regime change.

And they need a trial now to pretend that it isn’t. Especially to distract from his sinking under Epstein and skyrocketing healthcare costs.

If Xi Jinping invaded Taiwan right now, and toppled the president there, on what grounds would the United States object? Or have any credibility to say anything?

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.

Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

We’re less than a year into his presidency and we’re seeing recession-like layoffs, MTG is calling Trump a liar on CNN, Megyn Kelly and Ben Shapiro are beefing, and GOP influencer accounts are accusing Trump of gaslighting.

Well-oiled machine!

Trump:

- Doesn’t want to talk about prices or employment.

- Is asking SCOTUS *right now* to let him stop funding SNAP so he can use hunger as a weapon.

- Is still lying about trillions of dollars in tariffs.

All while he builds a ballroom and remodels the White House.
