Yet another incident that would’ve gotten any other president immediately impeached that is only the 127th worst thing Trump has done in 2025.

That so-called 'black eye' of hers, allegedly caused by an Antifa flag pole healed just as quickly as Trump's ear did.

Two years after Hamas' attack on Israel, California mourns the lives lost on Oct. 7th and in the days since.

Peace and healing will come only with the safe return of all hostages — and with real action from leaders to deliver the justice that everyone in the region deserves.

Reminder that we still don’t know what happened to the 1,000 immigrants who went missing from Alligator Alcatraz.

Their families and attorneys can’t locate them.

They’ve been disappeared.

People are still being sent to that horrible place without any due process.

“We are home now. We marched from the park to ICE, very peaceful crowd. We were standing around ICE pushed us down, sprayed us with chemical and I was hit in the head with a projectile. This was so unprovoked. People have to know that the Feds are attacking people with NO provocation whatsoever.”

Trump's Truth Social posts might doom his invasion of Chicago just like they did in Portland.

From a just-filed lawsuit.

4. In one example that received significant news coverage, on September 6, 2025,
Trump posted on social media an image of the Chicago skyline in flames, stating “Chicago about
to find out why it’s called the Department of WAR,” including a depiction of himself in the image
of the fictitious warmonger character Lt. Col. Kilgore from the 1979 film Apocalypse Now, titling
the post “Chipocalypse Now.”

The moment that judge failed in their duty, an order came from Miller or some other fascist in the government to accelerate the invasion of Illinois by 1000% to get boots on the ground before the judge could issue a ruling. Once boots are on the ground, enforcing a ruling becomes almost impossible.

I kinda remember Trump pardoning a bunch of people for this, many of whom beat up cops and put them in the hospital. I think they were yelling something about the Vice President as they stormed the building.

CENSORED: “They refused to run my column this week. Too critical of Trump, they said.”

Writer Dan Conway left The Daily Memphian after editors rejected his column for criticizing Trump’s unconstitutional military incursions into US cities.
