A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."

The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"

"Learned what?" she asks

Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

Stephen Colbert on the ICE murder of Renee Nicole Good: “The message from this administration is clear. Only they determine the truth. And when their forces come to your city: obey or die. And if you die, you clearly didn’t obey. This should be an alarm bell for the entire country.”

NEW: Some verified users on X are still using Grok to create “undress” images. And Grok’s app and website will still create images for people who don't have paid accounts.

“The recent decision to restrict access to paying subscribers is not only inadequate—it represents the monetization of abuse
X Didn't Fix Grok's ‘Undressing’ Problem. It Just Makes People Pay for It
X is only allowing “verified” users to create images with Grok. Experts say it represents the “monetization of abuse”—and anyone can still generate images on Grok’s app and website.

We're at the "Don't go out in public if you have brown skin because you might be murdered or kidnapped" stage of white supremacist fascism.

That's a helluva good return on an investment. Spend $200 million, get $500 billion!
The defense industry spent $136 million lobbying the US government in 2025, per @opensecrets.org.

It spent another $43 million on political donations for the 2024 election that seated our current government.

Another liar. The ICE agents prevented a local physician from attending to her while she was slumped over in the car after being shot.
Sen. Lankford blatantly lies about what the video of Renee Good's killing shows: "A classic law enforcement moment -- they have to fire their weapon and then when you see her car crash, law enforcement is running to her to provide aid. They're never looking to be able to take a life of individuals."

Pretty wild how fast MAGA went from “no new wars!” to “Invade Venezuela, bomb Iran, bomb Nigeria, destabilize Cuba, attack Colombia, threaten Mexico, and annex Greenland!!”
TAPPER: Can you rule out the US is going to take Greenland by force?

MILLER: Greenland should be part of the US. By what right does Denmark assert control over Greenland? The US is the power of NATO

Insanity: Sources close to the White House told the Washington Post Trump lost interest in backing Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado to lead the country because she accepted her Nobel Peace Prize rather than demanding it be given to Trump, which was viewed as an “ultimate sin.”

Trump: "All the way back it dated to the Monroe Doctrines. And the Monroe Doctrine is a big deal. But we've superseded it by a lot. By a real lot. They now call it the Donroe Document. I don't know. It's Monroe Doctrine. We sort of forgot about it."

The US is now responsible for the governance of Venezuela. Toppling the regime of a smaller country is always the easy part. The hard part is what comes after. Neo-cons always expect a pro-US nirvana. It rarely works out. But I suppose the oil companies can seize some assets.

Don’t be fooled: you can’t both claim this was simply the execution of an arrest warrant AND say the U.S. is now "running" Venezuela & grabbing its oil resources.

Trump just admitted this was a clear regime-change play to enrich U.S. oil companies & his billionaire buddies.
Trump and his cronies can try to dress this up, but it is an illegal act of war to replace Maduro and grab Venezuela's oil for his billionaire buddies.

Who wants the US or any country randomly invading their neighbors, starting wars, and stealing oil again?! That has always made us and the world less safe.
