I hope this news wakes any Viet Nam vets who’ve voted MAGA in the past out of their FOX News-induced stupor. Many of those orphans airlifted out of Saigon had American fathers.

throughout the ‘90’s.
Some of us saw the danger but too many were making money from it…and became the frogs slow-boiling to where we are today.

Forty years ago, 90% of media outlets were spread across 50 companies.
Now, just 5 companies control 90% of the media market.
This consolidation hurts consumers and helps oligarchs. 🧵

41 minutes of watching two shipwrecked men trying to flip a boat and signaling for surrender/help before firing on them again reminds me of the 9.5 minutes Derek Chauvin knelt on George Floyd’s neck, in that it’s an agonizingly long time to be killing helpless people who clearly posed no threat.

It's not about immigration. It never was. It's about numbers of arrests so they can get paid more. They are the scum of the swamp.

There are so many holes in DHS’s story it’s nuts. They say this woman was driving her boyfriend’s car, who they claim is undocumented.
ICE pulls her over, see she’s alone, know they are looking for a man, and still handcuff her while she screams “I am a US citizen,”.
Why is ICE harassing women?
