ICYMI - “Trump claimed the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua took over the building. But new docs make no mention of them”

They lie & use gangs as an excuse to terrorize immigrants. @MarshaBlackburn tells this lie all the time—even TBI got caught telling it. www.propublica.org/article/chic...

My friend lives in this building and said it was truly terrifying. The whole building woke up to their building being broken into by federal agents all to grab some guy who’s posted about being anti facist.
After 6am this morning in Whittier, Minneapolis—FOUR BLOCKS from where Pretti was murdered.

18 agents with Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) markings smashed an apartment window, ran in, and came out with one man.

SENATE AND HOUSE DEMOCRATS ARE UNITED ON REINING IN THE ABUSES OF ICE

Americans have watched in horror as ICE has terrorized communities across the country

Federal agents can’t continue to cause chaos in our cities while more Americans are killed

We must rein in ICE

Here’s what we're demanding:

Every American must watch this. This level of pathology should never be near a firearm. The "agent" who did this must be held accountable. The entire agency must be 100% abolished.
UNREAL! Congressional hearing Tuesday with US citizen Marimar Martinez who was shot by ICE. Rep Garcia notes how the ICE agent bragged to his friends about shooting her, writing 'I fired 5 rounds, and she had 7 holes. Put that in your book, boys." You can NOT reform ICE. Abolish and PROSECUTE ICE!!

we said all along that they wanted Gawker dead not because we embarrassed a pro wrestler but because the Epstein story is one Gawker was covering a decade before most other people caught up & was just one of many stories exposing powerful people and their misdeeds
Among the batch of newly released emails from Jeffrey Epstein: Epstein telling Peter Thiel he would “gladly share…expenses for the Gawker suit.”

This was sent the day after @rmac.bsky.social and @mattdrange.bsky.social reported in Forbes that Thiel was behind the lawsuit that would bankrupt Gawker

Trump thinks the federal government is his own personal ATM – and every dollar he steals, he takes away from your healthcare.
Trump on his multiple suits against the federal government: "I'm supposed to work out a settlement with myself ... We could make it a substantial amount, nobody would care, because it's gonna go to numerous, very good charities."

This Epstein drop is HUGE and utterly disgusting. I don’t see how this man is allowed to remain in office. Where are the evangelical leaders, the soccer moms, the folks stocking up on eggs, the farmers, the small business owners.
