President Gustavo Petro of Colombia said his government believed one of the boats recently bombed by the United States in its campaign against alleged drug traffickers had been carrying Colombian citizens, not drug traffickers.

As We the People prepare to participate in No Kings Day on October 18th, I am sharing a Substack article. In German-occupied Norway in 1942, participants in the Resistance wore a symbolic item in solidarity.

They wore a paperclip. And they won.

How Norwegians used the world's most boring office supply to defeat Nazi occupation and what that means for October 18th

We definitely can agree on that. I never would have imagined this would happen in America. 💔

I am smart enough to understand that it would be very unsafe. My heart aches for my hometown of Chicago. ICE has shot two people in the past few days. One died and the other is in critical condition.

You are welcome. I prefer to share the article or video that I comment on to make it easier for the recipient.

Here is an Aaron Parnas update video short from 11 hours ago. So the pardon question is still fluid.

Thank you for sharing this video. I had not seen it. These photos and videos are incomprehensible. The country deserves to have access to the files, photos, FBI files, and all secret videos. It would cause a crisis for F47.

I was able to find the video in which Aaron Parnas talked about a possible pardon for the Maxwell bitch (my nicest label for her). This video is from 17 hours ago.

Reminder. The last time Christian Nationalism took over a country it lost a war, its economy and most of its population. It was mocked and ridiculed for decades.
This is what Mussolini did to Italy.

Wonderful news! Francine was catting around at the local Lowe's. The family had reported her missing. Lowe's employees returned her to the family and Lowe's is sponsoring adoptions of cats and kittens for $0.00. Adopt a shelter cat or kitten in honor of the wandering Francine.

We covered this on today's @dailybeanspod.com. Extremely dangerous and these ICE agents should be charged with felonies.

PAY ATTENTION: ICE is filing fake 911 calls in Chicago, weaponizing emergency services to provoke local police.

Ordinary citizens would be charged with a felony. ICE calls it strategy.

Lawrence O'Donnell obliterating Jake Tapper for doing his interview w/ Trumpty via TEXT & NOT asking about Epstein is sooo deserving. Tapper is partly why we've been in hell for 10 months. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

“We are home now. We marched from the park to ICE, very peaceful crowd. We were standing around ICE pushed us down, sprayed us with chemical and I was hit in the head with a projectile. This was so unprovoked. People have to know that the Feds are attacking people with NO provocation whatsoever.”

It's a pretty big deal that the NYC Bar Association--one of the most prominent and respected bar associations in the country--is accusing the President of ordering the "unlawful summary execution," i.e. murder--of civilians in violation of US and international law. www.nycbar.org/press-releas...
