This is stunning. Listen to this in Philadelphia.

Thousands singing “Hey-Oh, we won’t be silent while our friends are gunned down.”

Really listen to it.

FOX: Where’s the protest against the regime that's killing people in the street right now?

Trent: They are doing those today. It’s called the ICE protests

FOX: Are they talking about Iran at the ICE protests?

Trent: No, I think they are talking about the regime that is shooting people in the face

"I'm not paying masked thugs to shoot moms in the face. Period."

- @ericswalwell.bsky.social on why he won't vote for ICE funding, in this interview:
Swalwell to @gregsargent.bsky.social: "I’m not voting to fund this ICE. I support getting rid of their immunity. I support requiring them to take off the masks ... This ICE is not what anybody asked for, and I’m not going to vote to continue it."

Renee Good should still be here.

She was a beloved child of God, with inherent value and infinite worth.

She was murdered by her own government in broad daylight in what is supposed to be the greatest democracy on the planet.

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.

It would take only a handful of Republican votes in the Senate and even fewer in the House to impeach, convict, and remove Trump. Only a handful.

This was murder. Trump is defending a murder, a murder committed on his behalf.

America is not being made safe. It is becoming more dangerous each and every day because Donald Trump is a criminal who commands and encourages others to commit crimes on his behalf—as he has done for years.
Trump: "I have just viewed the clip of the event which took place in Minneapolis. It is a horrible thing to watch. The woman screaming was, obviously, a professional agitator, and the woman driving the car was very disorderly, obstructing and resisting ... "

Minnesota's elected officials can turn their outrage into law to hold future ICE agents accountable and ensure the tragedy we saw today never happens again. In fact, all states should do the same. Here's how: https://www.ifyoucankeepit.org/p/how-to-stop-ices-brutality-and-impunity
How to stop ICE’s brutality and impunity
Minnesota — and all states — must close the legal loophole that protects the shooter from accountability

AOC: What we saw today was a criminal murder a woman while she was trying to flee for her life. What we saw today was a manifestation of every American’s worst nightmare: their government turning into a tyranny.

Tim Walz: "None of the Republicans running for governor had the damn common decency to Melissa and Mark's children. They've asked them to stop doing what they're doing. You need to ask those people running for governor if they would ask the president to please stop attacking the Hortman children."

No, it was a successful coup. None of the people who led it were punished, and are in fact back in power, rewarded for their efforts to break the system by running it. Donald Trump is currently the dictator he attempted to become 5 years ago, and it’s because nobody treated trying as a crime.
We must speak plainly: January 6th was an attempted coup. It was an effort to nullify millions of lawful votes and subvert the will of the American people.

I’m running for Congress in NY-12, my home.

We have a demented, criminal president running the country like a mob operation—government by the boss, for the boss.

We need Democratic fighters who will defend the rule of law and deliver government by the people. Join us.

Five years ago, Donald Trump instigated a violent insurrection in the Capitol to prevent Congress from certifying Joe Biden the winner of the 2020 election. The fact that the GOP coddled him, protected him, renominated him, and now support him in office, is a stain that will never be erased.

Trump seems to be about to annex Greenland, if we are to believe this patent liar for once.
That will kill NATO & the Western alliance, leaving the US alone.
Are any republican congressmen ready to stand up in defense of the Western alliance or are they all subdued?
