Imagine being the most powerful man in the world and still so weak that a heckle shatters your composure. The presidency once symbolized restraint under pressure. Now it snaps back with middle fingers and foul language. This isn’t leadership. It’s emotional incontinence in a poorly fitting suit.

Serious question:
Why was the ICE officer recording the incident with one hand, while pulling his gun out with the other, which he then used to murder Renee Good?
Isn't that a serious violation of procedure and suggests he was at the very least distracted?

Even the pope is ashamed of this Catholic.
It is unspeakably cruel to spread lies about a woman who was just killed, a mother and a Christian, and to do this before they have analyzed all the evidence.
Shame on you VP.

JD Vance accuses the slain Renee Good of perpetrating "an attack on federal law enforcement, an attack on law and order, and attack on the American people"
"That woman was there to interfere with a legitimate law enforcement operation," he adds, repeatedly referring to her as "that woman"

For those keeping score, Bellingcat, The New York Times Visual Investigation Team, & Washington Post's Visual Forensic team have all published analysis showing the ICE shooter wasn't in the path of Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle when he shot her, contradicting statements by the President & his cronies

Video: Videos Contradict Trump Administration Account of ICE Shooting in Minneapolis
An analysis of footage from three camera angles shows that the motorist was driving away from — not toward — a federal officer when he opened fire.

This was murder. Trump is defending a murder, a murder committed on his behalf.
America is not being made safe. It is becoming more dangerous each and every day because Donald Trump is a criminal who commands and encourages others to commit crimes on his behalf—as he has done for years.

I so agree with this post. It still blows my mind.
The American people electing Trump after he staged a coup attempt 5 years ago was a nail in the coffin of our democracy. You can rationalize it all you want - But inflation! But wokeness! - but ultimately it was a societal suicide attempt and probably the dumbest collective voting decision ever made

Alan Dershowitz is one of those claiming Epstein was not a pedophile because he pleaded guilty to one count of having sex for money with a 17-year-and-10-month-old person. "That’s not a pedophile." See this important response from Julia Brown, the brave reporter who broke the news on this
