Don't bother arguing about whether ICE is a police force or a military force. It's neither. It behaves as a disorganized, violent mob, cursing, shouting contradictory orders, and attacking unarmed citizens on a whim. It is deployed to create fear and chaos, not to enforce laws or establish order.

The Renee Good Cover-up Arrived Before Renee Good's Ambulance
Republicans used to say “Don’t tread on me.” Now it’s “tread all over, officer, & thanks for not killing me.”

So let me get this straight. The man who tore down the East Wing of the White House in order to build an oversized ballroom that no one asked for has launched an investigation into Jerome Powell over renovations to the Federal Reserve headquarters.
Did I get that right?

As in Germany in the 1930s. Centrists and liberals should be allowed nowhere near strategy for defeating proto fascist policies
so from what i can see, the centrist tactic is to basically pretend everything's fine and hope the fascists accidentally vote themselves out, is this right?

They refused to probe a murder. The people with consciences walked out.
🚨 NEW: At least four leaders of the DOJ Civil Rights Division resigned because the section's head, Harmeet Dhillon, decided not to investigate shooting of Renee Good.

Iran is an Islamic theocracy because of the US. Iran had a democratic government which the US and UK overthrew to install a brutal pro western dictatorship for oil. The 79 revolution was a direct consequence of this. People pretend the government is anti-US for no reason

Why does every Tory who defects to Reform get a press conference? The news outlets understand all they're doing is further disproportionately boosting Reform policies, right?

These two are the crackpots currently demanding senior police resign for being in cahoots with radical Islamists. The guy on the left was one of the key figures in an absurd all-channels national panic about The Muslims taking over jihadifying schools. Do we see what is happening here?

Reform UK’s Harrison Allman-Varty just celebrated his year anniversary of defecting from being a Tory Councillor to being. Reform UK (he didn’t call a by election or anything, despite him opining on how the government are “cancelling elections”).

Here’s Mohammed Abu Aasi, whose nephew was killed in Israeli strikes. “Every day houses are destroyed. Every day there’s shooting, and it’s random. 'Til now, the war is ongoing. Don't listen to those saying that the war is over. The war has stopped for the Israelis only. But for us, it’s ongoing.”
