Oh no! They've arrested Annie Antifa! Whatever will we do! She knows all our secret handshakes and the location of our lair!

ICE Talk Show Host, Kristi Noemakenosense says, “ we recently arrested the girlfriend of one of the founders of ANTIFA and we’re hoping as we go after her and prosecute her, we'll get more and more information about the network.”

This is State TV people! All propaganda and lies lies lies.

I was a supervising investigator for the State Bar of California, and I can tell you her performance was straight out of the crooked lawyer playbook. Don't answer the question, attack the investigators! That's not "fending off". That's actively concealing! Any decent reporter should know that!

As a former supervising investigator for the State Bar of California, watching Bondi was a study in crooked lawyer responses 101. Never answer the question, instead attack the investigator. Kudos to the Senators who responded like seasoned pros and never got distracted.

Observers say that it is highly unlikely that the Court will rule in their favor.

Complaints to the FL Bar were dismissed b/c "the Bar does not investigate complaints against US officials appointed under the Constitution while they are in office." One of the groups making a complaint has appealed to the FL Supreme Court to force the Bar to open an investigation.

Oh, for just one quick push.... Or even a stiff gust of wind.

Because "everyone knows she's lying" doesn't work in a court of law.

Dearest Joanna,

The battle continues to rage and I can only tell you that the words "war is hell" does no justice to the horrific sights I have seen. We are holding the line as this terrible dance with death goes on. Pray for us.

Streets are still closed off in front of the Portland ICE facility at 8:30pm. Protesters have gathered on a side street. Dance party in progress.

Surprise, surprise, the big shootout doesn't sound quite like as initially described by the ICE Gestapo. In fact, it sounds more like an attempted assassination BY them!

Send them here for 3 months. Let them tour a few of our hospital ERs. They don't realize how good they have it. In 2016, I had a heart attack. While in the ER, it was decided I needed an EKG. They would happily give it to me-- once I paid my insurance's $1500 deductible. Good thing I had the $$$!

No shit. Bezos and almost every other billionaire. Because they see an authoritarian kleptocracy as a better way to preserve and expand their vast wealth than a democratic republic. Fewer people they have to bribe, I guess.

If U.S. states have any degree of sovereignty, if there’s any states’ rights at all, it is the right not to be invaded by the armed forces of another U.S. state.

Farmer bros got exactly what they voted for. And however bad they end up having it, they'll probably STILL continue to vote Republican. Past history indicates future performance, after all. And some people never learn.

Oh, don't worry. There will be PLENTY of desperately poor white folks to fill all those jobs by then. It's not like it hasn't happened before. Remember the Okies of the 1930s... Just pick up a copy of The Grapes of Wrath or In Dubious Battle by Steinbeck if you need a refresher.
