Yesterday, a woman named Renee Good attempted to flee from ICE agents in a Minneapolis neighborhood when they attempted to pull her from her vehicle. She was not obstructing them and was not violent - she simply did not obey their command to "Get out of the f*** car!" youtu.be/Kq2jY3wVdhg

I'll be live on Patreon at noon Eastern tomorrow to discuss the ICE shooting in Minneapolis.

This woman was not trying to run down an ICE agent and he had no reason to shoot her.

New FBL Spot Report up on YouTube. I find that I agree with Auron Macintyre when it comes to regulating the sports betting marketplace, but wonder why he doesn't apply his reasons for accepting these regulations to the health care marketplace.

Woke up this morning to see that Senate Dems, including Virginia's Tim Kaine, caved on the shutdown and protecting ACA subsidies and Medicaid funding. I think this is a terrible idea - here's an FBL spot report with my thoughts. Check out our other content on YouTube.

Let’s get this to $150K.
☀️That feeling when your wildest dream of helping 27 heroic Va. (D) state house candidates is vastly exceeded by the generosity & understanding of hundreds of small dollar donors & 19 Va. (D) elected officials !! 😮 @charlesgaba.com🌟

🚨The original goal was $135k; but, $142,934 has been raised.

WOW !

We're in the shape we're in because a political faction, neoconservatives, figured out that it could control the US Government, and implement any policy and political programs they like, if they could stack the US Supreme Court with fellow travelers. They started this project in the 1980s.

Who knew the institution fascism in America would rest on would be the United States Supreme Court?

Must admit I didn't have that on my 250th Anniversary of American Independence bingo card.
