ICE’s killing of Renee Good has revealed how the state will only defend those who uphold a white racial order. A 1915 film points to the origins of this social pact

ICE has nothing to do with immigration anymore. It is now the private police force of the orange fuhrer, aided and abetted by fascist technology companies like Palantir.

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.

Between seizing ballots in Georgia, trying to leverage Minnesota to turn over its sensitive voter data, and political prosecutions, the DOJ is laying the groundwork to subvert the 2026 elections. I created Democracy Docket for times like this. Help it grow by supporting it now. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

ICE is spending $100 million this year to recruit military and UFC enthusiasts. That doesn’t include their salary, gear, bonuses, housing, and travel costs, which would cost taxpayers tens of billions of dollars.

The newly released video angles of ICE shooting and killing Alex Pretti show us, conclusively: They. Murdered. Him.
Cold Blooded, Decisive MURDER.
There's no "If" they did. THEY DID.

Whistleblowers just shared a memo showing DHS instructing ICE to force their way into peoples' houses without a proper warrant. Why is this not on all the networks right now? This is a criminal conspiracy to violate rights under color of law.

A bunch of Alt facts right here 👇
Trump: "There are windmills all over Europe. There are windmills all over the place. And they are losers. One thing I've noticed is that the more windmills a country has, the more money that country loses, and the worse that country is doing. I haven't been able to find any wind farms in China."

No one can be watching this Davos speech and reach any conclusion but that the President of the United States is mentally disturbed and that something is deeply wrong with him. This is both embarrassing and extremely dangerous.

Just a reminder that Trump is selling Venezuelan oil and depositing the proceeds into a bank account in Qatar that is NOT under any control by the US government or Congress.
He's just stealing it. It really is that simple.

MSM needs to STOP reporting everything Trump says like it’s the GOSPEL truth. They need to do their due diligence like real Journalists! They’re irresponsible with their coverage of this President & his Cabinet Officials. They don’t question ANYTHING. Trump saying something doesn’t make it a law!

Remember that sociopathic boy who sat in the back of the class in 10th grade who talked back2teachers, made straight Fs, threw spitballs, teased disabled kids, bullied the smaller kids&touched girls inappropriately—but got away with it because his dad was rich? He’s the sociopathic “President” now.
