Everyone should see this. Make sure the MAGAs do and see if they can defend it.
I’m a U.S. citizen, please help me!" she cries. "Why are you doing this to me?"

The USG has a new explanation on why they (now admittedly) intentionally killed 2 shipwrecked men. It does not pass the laws-of-war smell test

Worse for Hegseth, NYT: "Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth approved contingency plans for what to do if an initial strike left survivors."

And one is nodding off.
RFK Jr: "Two weeks ago we ended, under your leadership, a twenty year war on women".

Three out of five men in this shot have been accused of sexual misconduct, harassment or abusive behaviour towards women. A fourth signed into law a near-total abortion ban in his state as governor.

Sen. Mullin: "We know that the Navy or the Coast Guard picked up survivors already and sent them back to their country."

Bash: "Could that be because a lawyer in the Pentagon said 'you can't do that again'?"

Sen. Mullin: "No…Why do we care if we take them out in international water?"

WELKER: Did you defy the court's order Madam Secretary?

KRISTI NOEM: No. That's one of the things we continue to face in this country -- activist judges who are using radical decisions that have no standing and no grounds

Trickle-down economics was always a sham.

Nothing has ever trickled down.

A country where the president can ask election officials to 'find' another 11,780 votes and not be prosecuted, while citizens are brutalized for exercising their constitutional rights is not a nation of laws.
THIS IS WHAT FASCISM LOOKS LIKE.

Absolutely horrific. ICE detained and abducted a minor—a high school student—who the family identified as a US citizen.

ICE is terrorizing our communities—I’m fighting for answers and accountability. This is just wrong.

📌NOTE: There's no newsroom guidance I'm aware of that says journalists have to just sit there and take it when an ill-bred slob, and convicted felon calls them "piggy" and shrugs off the brutal killing of one of their colleagues by simply saying, "things happen."

"What he's done has been incredible in terms of human rights and everything else."
-Trump, on the murdering head of Saudi Arabia, MBS, while he welcomes him to the WH with fanfare. He went on to say nobody liked Kashoggi.

I can't wrap my head around the Epstein survivors who say, "I voted for you, President Trump..."

WTF? Rape survivors voting for a known rapist.
