And, he ‘brandished a cell phone’, never got his gun out!
All 10 shots were fired AFTER they removed the gun from Pretti’s waist. Every single shot was fired after he was disarmed.

Senators must vote to return CBP to actually controlling our borders. Minneapolis is no where near a border or the Great Lakes—which seems to now be an expanded definition of our ‘border.’
Senate Dems needn’t come to agreement on everything right now. That’s a path to the lowest common denominator. They simply have to agree to filibuster DHS approps. As to which of a host of anti-brutality and anti-authoritarian proposals to advance, let a thousand flowers bloom.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Really? DEI again? All because they opened it up to girls? Sad for military families who get relocated-scouting is a constant for the kids.
This is rich coming from Hegseth, who would flunk any real test of merit. His entire ascent rests on loyalty politics, not ability, which makes his sermon about ‘meritocracy’ almost self-parody.

Yep. Keep capitulating to this monster. Don't worry, he'll change for you. You can change him. He's only 80, a convicted felon, and an adjudicated rapist with 67 sex-crime allegations on him. Just keep rolling over. If you roll over enough maybe we can have the whole fucking world in flames by 2028.

The GOP Greedy Old Party would have continued to fire and shut down services now and in the future (see Project 2025) anyway!
Trump: “The Democrats are getting killed on the shutdown because we’re closing up programs that are Democrat programs that we were opposed to. And they are never going to come back in many cases. So we’re being able to do things that we were unable to do before.”

Shame on Netanyahu, he can’t stand the idea of people gaining access to food, water and medical supplies! He is a war criminal.
Over 600 trucks supplied with aid to Gazans still waiting to get in. Netanyahu says he’ll only allow half, which is not enough, but still at this point has not allowed ANY in.
Why? Maybe because this “ceasefire” is not going to last much longer.

Israel committing genocide in Gaza, world’s top scholars on the crime say
Almost 90% of leading academics on subject back resolution stating that Israel’s actions meet legal definition
An overwhelming majority of members of the world’s leading genocide scholars’ association has backed a resolution stating that Israel’s actions in Gaza meet the legal definition of the crime.
Eighty-six percent of those who voted in the 500-member International Association of Genocide Scholars (IAGS) supported the motion. The resolution states that “Israel’s policies and actions in Gaza meet the legal definition of genocide in Article II of the United Nations Convention for the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (1948).” Continue reading...

We’re only a few years removed from creatjng a vaccine to protect against a deadly airborne virus in a matter of months. Now, we have a scion fail son running the CDC into the ground not because it failed, but because its success conflicts with RFK Jr’s eugenicist ideology.
9 CDC Directors going back to 1977 speak out. What RFK Jr has done to our nation’s public health system "should alarm every American."
