I'd love to know how many of these Death Squad "agents" have past criminal records & if they've SERIOUSLY been psychologically evaluated.
Given the impunity they've been granted, you can BET on the fact that every disturbed individual who has ever fantasized abt murdering ppl will be applying.

Whoever wants the Dem nom in 2028 needs to recognize this moment for what it is and start taking SMART actions accordingly. Will ANYONE meet recognize what's happening and step up? I'm watching, I'm waiting.

WHAT. THE. FUCK?!!!!
From Senator Chris Murphy, Connecticut
Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump.
Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

From Steve Simon, MN Secy of State. ICE agents chase down and handcuff a child in negative temperatures while he's saying "I'm legal".

1 They LOVE that Trump took Maduro
2 They HATE Trump & his immigration nonsense
3 They LOVE Machado. She's been around a LONG time & they hopefully think she's "playing the game" to get her country back

Trump: “It was my Great Honor to meet María Corina Machado, of Venezuela, today. She is a wonderful woman who has been through so much. María presented me with her Nobel Peace Prize for the work I have done. Such a wonderful gesture of mutual respect. Thank you María!”

Damn, Bill Clinton just called Trump & Pam Bondi's bluff. Clinton released a statement calling on Bondi to release all of the Epstein files that mention him - including photos.
This is what a president with a spine looks like.
Meanwhile, Trump is having the FBI scrub his name from the files.

This is regressive nonsense. We've been down this road before. Remember the days of the masses being UNDER-insured? That's what this is. And THIS is exactly what lead to needing the ACA in the first place.

Reuters has done some really great investigative reporting on the impacts of Trump's retribution campaigns
Reuters reached out to everyone that Trump or his subordinates singled out publicly for retribution, and reviewed hundreds of official orders, directives and public records. The result: the most comprehensive accounting yet of his campaign of payback.

Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

The Trump regime is declaring that funding for the CFPB is illegal.
Remember: This is the agency that protects Americans from financial predators.
Anti-CFPB oligarchs, who spent millions to re-elect Trump, will now have an easier time padding their pockets by ripping you off.

Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.
