Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.

For the crime of … complaining about government policy.

Core 1A speech.

With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

I’ll play your game:

If an NFL team was named the Chiefs, but they were “honoring” African chiefs, would it be acceptable for fans to show up in blackface? Bang drums? War whoop?

And then a black man says to a white man:

“That’s offensive.”

Then a white fan responds:

“But we’re honoring you.”

It's been two weeks since Adelita Grijalva was elected and Mike Johnson has still refused to seat her, unlike in past cases where he swore in new members within 24 hours.

There cannot be one set of rules for Rs and another for Ds.

Also, release the damn Epstein files already.

Trump posted on Truth Social this morning claiming that Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson and Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker should be jailed for “failing to protect ICE officers.” Seriously? ICE officers are upset they can’t use restrooms or grab brunch.

Trump would rather burn down the country than release the Epstein Files.

Over 80% of voters want it released.

Release the Epstein Files.

Soybean Farmer: So now I've got a tariff war that's killing my market. I don't have any money from grain we're sending to other countries for USAID. I mean, I've got a compound problem. I don't know how you plan for next year because we don't know where we're at.

Westminster ain’t much better. Council Person Amy Pham West (running for Derek Tran’s House seat) bitches and whines about her missing small Trump flag at her city council seat. Her and the Mayor are battling it out to see who runs against Derek Tran.

PAY ATTENTION: ICE is filing fake 911 calls in Chicago, weaponizing emergency services to provoke local police.

Ordinary citizens would be charged with a felony. ICE calls it strategy.

Thank you to you and Simon for another history lesson. This one was harder to listen to. How and n people be so cruel? I would have hoped this country would have grown into a place where all people are appreciated. Now we are regressing under a government of haters. Keep speaking the truth.

I had a lot of fun doing this interview with Jeff - we covered a lot of topics, and it includes what is now my favorite description of me as a person:

“He looks cool and simultaneously lacks cool”

because yeah, that describes me to a t.

My Truth OC sitdown with @chriswarcraft.bsky.social — former Vikings punter, Huntington Beach resident and recently announced Assembly candidate. www.thetruthoc.com/p/chris-kluw...

Chris Kluwe doesn't need this shit

The former Minnesota Vikings punter could be playing video games in his basement. Instead, he's running for Assembly. Why? "To help save democracy."

Kamala Harris warned us that Trump would turn the military against civilians. She warned us that he would pursue Project 2025. The media mocked her, but she was dead right about both.
