The White Christian Nationalist Government is literally shooting White Christian leaders..

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.

For the crime of … complaining about government policy.

Core 1A speech.

With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

Here’s video of the incident

The MSM is going to gloss over or ignore these incidents of brutality against Resisters as much as possible. We see ICE attacking groups everyday. We get told to tone down our rhetoric, not call them Nazis or pedos. Sing songs, pray, be polite, don’t block traffic. Get Loud for #NoKings

A piece of dog shit 💩 is better than Trump.. also people are falling for half truths and manufactured outrage. Here we go again.. I remember what folks did to Hillary, then Biden, then Kamala.. and so it goes.

He’s a senile old man. He’s giving full reign to Russ Vogt with his Project 2025 and Stephen Miller’s ICE goons. The window of opportunity is rapidly closing, the shutdown is all the leverage the Democrats have. Unless,of course, We the People take to the streets in huge numbers. #NoKings

The President isn’t really running this country. We are in a crisis. Project 2025 has been enacted very rapidly. Meanwhile Stephen Miller is destroying freedom in America as our largest cities are put under Military occupation in order to facilitate ICE operations.
The shutdown works for them.

Just get a judge and swear her in.. I heard it’s not a law that this evil troll has to do it. They will do anything to prevent Democratic Representation. Democrats must counter. And could the Press please stop being weenies?

MagicalMerlin @magicalmerlin20-0.bsky.social · 1d

The story will get buried, we won’t ever learn the whole truth. Just like the Trey Reed story.

Many people are saying She Won due to voting irregularities found,
Also Elon Musk admitted to helping Trump get the necessary votes through manipulation.

“Legal” people vs “illegal” people?!
So that’s the distinction now?!
Things have deteriorated bigly.
I’m terrified, this is me in April. I have not changed my mind, have you?

We aren’t outraged because we don’t even know what to be outraged about. Capitalism is a horrible system.. everyone has their price. The courts are broken. Our country is being run by the most corrupt and most incompetent people imaginable. Not hyperbole.

The Trump Administration has gone too far. Fox News is totally propaganda on which he bases his decisions.
Did you see the headlines about the attack on a Chicago Apartment building? Right, no Happening Now! No bold print on the Front Page. The MSM has caved.

About 400 people of all ages and races turned out to protest in Portland, including families with children and retirees with walkers. As people chanted in front of the ICE building, a large group of federal officers moved into the crowd and pushed some protesters.

I find it strange to see ICE protester ( Including the peace keepers), viciously attacked in Portland and other blue cities.
I have participated in ICE protests for months now in Ohio, and no
violence at all. But then our Sheriff’s departments agreed to work with them.
