As Arte Johnson used to say... very interesting. Did a little research on this drug myself. The Congresswoman makes a valid statement.

For those keeping score, Bellingcat, The New York Times Visual Investigation Team, & Washington Post's Visual Forensic team have all published analysis showing the ICE shooter wasn't in the path of Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle when he shot her, contradicting statements by the President & his cronies

ICE, Miller’s gestapo, shoots a white American citizen, and suddenly Trump's security propaganda crumbles. No targeted criminals, just random arrests. Then, a fabricated story and an "act of self-defense" to cover up the injustice. Guaranteed cynicism.

Reminder: ICE has a budget bigger than most militaries around the world.

It has increased its spending on weapons by 700% since Trump took office.

Trump is building his own personal military to terrorize American cities, trample on civil rights, and intimidate his opponents.

The cynics think today's attack on Venezuela is staged and transactional. Maduro is allied with Putin, but in 2019 Putin offered Trump a swap: Russia cedes Venezuela and gets Ukraine. (See Fiona Hill's testimony in Trump's first impeachment trial, h/t @davetroy.com). Even Maduro may be in on it. 2/

Trump to Fox: “Claudia Sheinbaum is a good woman, but the cartels are running Mexico.

“She’s not running Mexico — the cartels are running Mexico.

X/grok creating and platforming sexually explicit material of children isn’t just a lapse, it’s criminal.

Health care is a human right, not a bargaining chip.

Republican politicians who cut health care to pay for more billionaire tax cuts, or to increase profits for their corporate donors, are selling out working families.

Old Dersh is big mad about all these so-called "survivors" going around telling terrible stories that no one should believe.

He seems to think they're the perpetrators rather than victims, and they only want one-sided transparency.

Very unfair to people like him.

Also can some smart lawyer explain to me why the president being on the receiving end of a lawsuit distracts him from his job, using SCOTUS logic, but him suing civilians doesn’t?
Also, because he is president and expressly because we don't want lawsuits distracting him from his job, civil suits can't be filed against him.

Trump: "We need Greenland for national protection. They have a very small population. They say Denmark, but Denmark has spent no money. They have no military protection. They say Denmark was there 300 years ago or something with a boat. Well, we were there with boats too I'm sure."

SNAP is a lifeline for workers in low-wage jobs.

Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker.

Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps.

Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.
