WORST OPPORTUNISTIC SCAM ARTIST, EVER
UPDATE: Los Angeles man arrested after sending fake ransom text to Nancy Guthrie's family, trying to get bitcoin.
Derrick Callela was not behind the original note, according to the FBI: He was "trying to profit from it, a total imposter."

White people are putting Mexican flag stickers on their cars to get pulled over and waste ICE's time.

LOL, nothing like trying to clarify positions four days after first posting on Bluesky. Way to be prepared!
We've received a lot of comments from the Bluesky community tonight, so we want to take the time to clarify our positions.

Americans know our health care system is broken.
A recent poll found that 70% of Vermonters support a Medicare for All single-payer system.
Congress must understand that health care is a human right — not a privilege.
We must pass Medicare for All.

Every American veteran and every employee of the VA should rest assured that if their government murders them, Doug Collins will only blame them implicitly, not explicitly, because Doug Collins is a coward.

Philando Castile informed the police that he was lawfully carrying. He was killed.
Chip Roy: "As someone who carries a weapon in TX, if I'm in front of law enforcement or if I get stopped, I tell them that. I tell them that I've got a concealed carry permit. I show them my ID. I tell them where the weapon is bc that's what we're supposed to do. That's not what I think I saw here"

Scott Adams was a brilliant satirist who understood the insanity of corporate life and knew what was funny, and he entertained me frequently. I'm sad that he succumbed to nihilism in later life instead of using his sphere for the greater good.

In the video of the Philando Castillo shooting, I buy that Yanez was completely terrified and panicking. That's what got him exonerated.
No way the ICE Agent was fearful

In America you drop your kid off at school, get your brains blown out on the ride home, then the Vice President drops everything for a week to call you a terrorist, to slander your family, to protect the circumstances that led to your death so they can do it again. It is government by Alex Jones.

In the video that the shooter took, which I believe was leaked to be exculpatory, he appears to yell “fucking bitch” after he shoots Renee Good.

He never dropped his phone.
Even while “fearing for his life” and shooting her with the other hand.

If the defense will be "he was in fear for his life" for qualified immunity, wouldn't he have have dropped his phone and put two hands on the gun?

the ICE officer calling a woman he just murdered a “fucking bitch” is visceral, but imo the most material new information in the latest video is that she very clearly turns the wheel away from the officer right before it happens
