Jan. 16, 2025: A SpaceX Starship rocket explodes over the Caribbean.
Suddenly, dozens of planes in the area must scramble to get out of a newly designated FAA "debris zone."
Their passengers are now unwitting participants in a test run gone wrong. (THREAD)

ICE’s killing of Renee Nicole Good during an operation in Minneapolis needs to be a galvanizing moment for every American to join the activists who’ve been fighting this brutality day in and day out for years in saying: ENOUGH.

The silver lining to the surrender by 8 Dems is that the House GOP must return to vote on it. Johnson must swear in Grijalva, and the discharge petition on the Epstein files must force a full floor vote. Stay tuned.

Garcia: What we got was complete bullshit. We demanded the full Epstein files, and that’s not what was sent over. The White House cover-up clearly continues. What they sent us was 33,000 pages of documents that have already been in the public domain.

report losing $7,000 in a single night or seeing sales fall by 75% on normally busy evenings. In neighborhoods like Columbia Heights, street vendors say foot traffic has “disappeared,” with business now worse than during the pandemic. Chinatown, some shop owners estimate a 30–40% drop in sales.

They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.
