Turns out it is much safer to attack the U.S. Capitol than it is to drive away from ICE. Who knew?

Read this story and decide if this is the America you want to live in.

ICE saw a Latino man driving a car. Chased him down and rammed him. Just because he wasn’t white.

He was just a guy - an American citizen - driving to the auto shop.

House Speaker Mike Johnson apparently doesn’t understand how our justice system works. He said if Fed Chair Jerome Powell is innocent, “then he can prove that.” No, Mikey, he doesn’t need to prove he’s innocent. His accusers need to prove he’s guilty.

@aoc.bsky.social all of you need to stop with this impeachment crap of Trump. Unless you win big in the mid-terms, it will not happen. You will never convince republicans to impeach and remove him from office. Focus on winning the next election is the priority.

Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth have tried to silence me for speaking out.

Today, I’m fighting back because this isn’t just about me. This is about the rights of all retired veterans and all Americans, and I’m not going to let this Administration take those away.

Raju: The Speaker and others have said that this driver was weaponizing her vehicle.

AOC: Their editorializing of this event to justify a public murder is disgusting. It is horrifying. Watch it for yourself and make that assessment for yourself on which of these leaders are lying to you.

Fifteen years ago today, a gunman opened fire while my wife Gabby Giffords met with constituents outside a Tucson grocery store. Six people were killed. Thirteen others were injured – including Gabby. That day changed everything for my family and our community.
Today marks 15 years since a gunman tried to assassinate me. He shot 19 people and killed six.

I almost died, and think of those who did every day.

This afternoon, retired Army general Stanley McChrystal spoke at the retirement ceremony hosted by HRC for six trans service members who were forced out under Trump’s ban.

“I shouldn’t have to be thanked for being here. First off, we shouldn’t be here. This shouldn’t be happening.”

Full remarks:

So Trump, Vance, Noem and republican's lying about who Good was. Not surprising. She was not an activist, apparently, despite what the Trump administration said. This was clearly murder. #ReneeGood #ICE

I doubt Congress will do anything. The GOP belongs utterly to Trump and Trump is entirely corrupt. I doubt this will be the last citizen government agents murder citizens.

the video of the ICE agent murdering the woman in her car is horrific. She was trying to flee, yes, but no ICE agent was in danger.

I doubt the agent will face charges.

Tesla minted, then dented, fortunes. #econsky
Tesla once propelled a little-known South Korean family into the ranks of the ultra-rich on a landmark supply deal.

But as the contract fell short of expectations, it became a drag on a fortune that was already under pressure — with the full extent only now becoming clear.

@mcuban.bsky.social It would be much easier to implement needed reforms to our current healthcare system, to make it better (not perfect) that to go to UHC. Successful people focus on what is realistic and not dreams.
