Oof. Hats off to the guy who took the video. That took some onions.
I think it is probably a bad idea to put clearly unhinged, angry psychopaths in federal law enforcement positions.

Good morning. I'd like to invite anyone who is interested to make a small gesture of kindness today. It's up to you to decide what that can be. The key is for you to act on the idea. With so much out of our control, we can choose how to be with each other today and every day.

I refuse to stay silent while Secretary Noem breaks the rule of law and terrorizes our communities. I am introducing Articles of Impeachment against her for violating the public trust, obstructing Congress, and self-dealing. Read my full statement: robinkelly.house.gov/media-center...

Thank you for acknowledging the pain. This is a trauma anniversary for me as a DC resident which has nothing to do with any political symbolism.
On this Jan 6…. A day that’s so uniquely painful to so many people…. I thank the Washington Post for this:
…As victims of Jan 6 fight for the posting of a legally-mandated plaque to honor police

Donald Trump has instructed the entire FBI to prioritize finding ways to bring charges against anti-fascists and other activists. Any FBI agent who wants to advance his career now has an incentive to set up naïve kids for an entrapment case.
Please read about entrapment and how to protect yourself.

The Rules of Grief
The post-Kirk purge was never about decency. Trump's response to Rob Reiner's murder proves it.

For months, we've sought details about the shadowy deal the Trump Admin made with the Salvadoran govt to imprison people in the notorious CECOT prison — where they faced torture & other human rights abuses.
Yesterday, I got the official who signed the deal to publicly admit it for the first time.

By the way everyone, what right-wing politicians say about immigrants is literally also what they believe about you.
You having an ordinary job is a kind of favour your generous employer and the nation has done you, allowing you to reproduce your existence despite not being AN ENTREPRENEUR

without birthright citizenship in the united states, you don't have a democracy and you don't have rule of law.
revoking birthright citizenship gives fascists free rein to purge the country of literally anyone they don't like. it opens the door to atrocities and mass murder. i am not exaggerating.
