People really don't get that you do nonviolent protest specifically to generate THIS kind of thing.
It's not "be nonviolent so the cops don't hurt you"

It's "be nonviolent so the cops are seen HURTING NONVIOLENT PEOPLE"

Fish rots from the head…

Newsom took 25 BILLION of our money to ‘alleviate homelessness,’ and handed it to developers and NGOs in the poverty industrial complex

Now he wants to pay cops overtime to attack, rob, and jail the poorest members of our society

The rich get rich criminalizing the poor.

This is what happens when we censor scientists. We have evidence-based ways to prevent this from getting worse, but instead CDC scientists aren’t able to do their jobs.
“It’s frustrating because we have the solution.”

As of 5/8 there are 1,001 confirmed measles cases across 30 US states. 709 are in TX. We are probably confirming ~1 in 3 cases meaning the true number is closer to 3000 at minimum. There are 922 confirmed cases across the border in Chihuahua, Mexico

The only ideals any of these clowns believe in is eugenics and taking bribes, and the only point of disagreement among them is which of the two should be the main focus.
RFK Jr talking about the need for doctors to know how to treat measles for those who are unvaccinated.

“Only very sick kids should die from measles.”

No. They shouldn’t. That was the point of the vaccine. We eradicated the virus so children didn’t die.

Sick & disabled kids are not expendable!

Hegseth is literally denying a story that the NSC has already confirmed and in which receipts were printed verbatim.

Remember this the next time he impugns another journalist.
Reporter: Can you share how your information about war plans was shared with a journalist?

Hegseth: So you are talking about a deceitful and highly discredited so-called journalist who has made a profession of peddling hoaxes

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”
