Ellison: "We have the right as a state, as a co-sovereign, to do our own business with our own tax money. What the federal govt has said is, 'if you don't do it our way, we're gonna saturate your state with 4,000 ICE agents until you cry uncle and obey us.' That's unconstitutional and illegal."

It rather looks as if 🇺🇸 has moved the goal posts on the 🇺🇦 peace deal, caving into territorial demands by 🇷🇺 that the whole of Donbas should be ceded to Russia….more land than Russia has seized in its illegal war.
What’s the justification?
I can’t see that sticking.

So, these armed felons from January 6, 2021 are “just tourists!”
But an ICU nurse defending a woman who ICE pepper-sprayed and pushed to the ground was a “domestic terrorist “!

#GVerse #Shit4Brains is either leaving office peacefully, or he's going to be forcefully removed. The U.S. Armed Forces have a choice: Either support the American people and the constitution — or a fascist authoritarian regime that is a facsimile of Hitler's Third Reich.

Wow! This read-along of the NYT moment-by-moment leading to the murder of Alex Pretti should shake everyone awake. He was a Good Samaritan.
Agents fired at least ten shots in roughly five seconds. DHS and Pam Bondi claim Pretti approached them armed and intent on a “massacre.”

Alex Pretti was an American hero. He saved lives. He protected people. He cared deeply about his community, unlike the murderous thugs who killed him.
The very last thing he did was try to help a woman who had been pepper-sprayed and violently shoved to the ground by ICE. 1/

Healey: Whether it’s ballrooms, or masked agents, or attacks on Europe and Greenland…This is not normal. It’s not normal to have somebody who acts like a two-year-old throwing a tantrum. On any given day, we don’t know what he’s going to do.
This shouldn’t be normalized. It’s not right.

There’s still a taboo in the media about describing Trump’s cognitive state.
It’s rooted in the idea that the US President being insane sounds so preposterous that it must be an inaccurate slur.
But it’s the hard truth.
All of this is a result of Trump being an unstable narcissistic megalomaniac.
