I sincerely, not-jokingly believe it's worth keeping track of this guy because I am 100% convinced he will be an absolute political menace in the very near future and it'll be important to not play around with him when we get to that point.

He calls her a 'fucking bitch' after he shoots her.
This appears to be authentic video posted on X from ICE agent Jonathan Ross's cell phone. He was filming throughout the encounter. Numerous details match video from other bystanders.

This is how a regime threatens its own people, live on state-run TV. In Iran, national broadcasters are now warning families not to let their children protest, or “don’t complain if they are shot.”
“We’ve ended conflicts with hypocrites before,” they add.

It follows that Trump leaked the most market-moving economic numbers that exist.
I have no idea how illegal this is, or if the law even matters any more.
But I do know this: It's unprecedented. No White House has ever before leaked such important market-moving numbers. No serious country does this

A credulous media will be the death of the Republic
Why would Trump stop lying? It's worked for him so far.
Lying has helped him avoid almost all accountability as a sex predator.
Lying has made him billions.
Lying got him out of felonies that would put anyone else in prison.
Lying has made him so powerful that most media won't call his lies "lies."

Important: Minneapolis killing should lead Dems to draw a much harder line against *any* ICE funding in budget talks, Swalwell/Goldman agree.
"I am not going to pay masked thugs to shoot moms in the face. Period," Swalwell says.
A Dem House should be for defunding.

There are no rules, they don’t actually care about respect, decorum, bipartisanship or debate, and only pretend to do so to browbeat you into submission. Nothing is going to change until more people realise that and respond accordingly; including to the media and politicians who have failed them.
