Here’s what appears to be a little girl shackled at the wrists and ankles boarding an ICE flight on Avelo Airlines yesterday. Seattle (Boeing Field) to Mesa, AZ, an ICE detention hub.

Not one of those men helped her up the stairs.

BREAKING: What you just witnessed was a state-sanctioned kidnapping. These people aren’t identifying themselves. Citizens can no longer distinguish between state authority & rogue violence.

This is not a warning about what might come. We are not watching the start of something. We are living it.

The Minnesota shooter apparently used data broker websites to find the home addresses of the people he shot and murdered.

Congress has had years to do something about data brokers and they've sided with the tech lobby over and over again.

Their inaction is deadly.

Sen Mike Lee & the silence from Republicans made it clear: decency is in the rearview mirror.

After he mocked a political assassination, Ed Shelleby, a senior staffer to Sen Tina Smith, wrote to Lee’s top staffers.

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com read it on-air, and honestly everyone should hear it.

"The HHS document says that another paper it cites found 'an increase in placental blood clotting in pregnant mothers who took the vaccine.'

But the paper doesn't contain any reference to placental blood clots or to pregnant women."

RFK Jr. sent Congress 'medical disinformation' to defend COVID vaccine schedule change
A document circulated to members of Congress misinterprets studies and cites debunked research, scientists say. It could influence congressional perceptions of vaccine safety.

For Dallas protesters: I'm on the Police Oversight Board. If you'd like to file a complaint against an officer for behaving unprofessionally or abusively, let me know and I'll connect you to the right folks.

At the same time, if you'd like to commend an officer for being helpful, also let me know.

ICE is going to parks in Los Angeles and kidnapping nannies who are caring for small children

The children are witnessing these kidnappings and being held in custody until their parents are contacted

Not taking anything away from Senator Padilla because he was treated atrociously

But I JUST want to remind everyone that the Congresswoman LaMonica McIver, a Black woman, was just indicted for just asking questions at an ICE detention center in her state

Keep that same energy of support for her

And if they can do this to @padilla.senate.gov, imagine how vulnerable others in this country are to this kind of tyranny and abuse.

Earlier Trump refused to transfer 20,000 missiles to Ukraine to fight the Shahed drones raining down on civilians. The United States and Ukraine had already agreed on the transfer when Trump decided to skirt the deal after his conversation with Putin. These scenes are Trump and Putin's fault.

House and Senate leaders should demand resignations from both Major General Pat Work, the 82nd Airborne Division commander, and Colonel Chad Mixon, the Fort Bragg garrison commander.

This was possibly the most partisan speech ever delivered by a commander-in-chief to U.S. troops.
Candidly, as a civ-mil watcher, this scene at Bragg is freaking me out more than anything else that's happened so far. Just an absolute collapse of professional military norms.

FOR ALL THE CLAIMS OF LOOTING: Watch this clip of PEACEFUL protesters stopping looters at Otoro Sushi in LA.

The media is purposely tying in looters with protesters to demonize/delegitimize the cause.

The government is orchestrating chaos then blaming chaos on protesters exercising their rights.

It somehow gets worse. The cops refuse to call an ambulance because the streets are blocked off and then blame the protestors for causing the situation. They end up having to get a dozen people together to carry her on foot somewhere, blocks from the nearest open street
Via @btnewsroom A protester was shot in the head as Los Angeles riot. Police fired rubber bullets, during an anti-ICE protest. Community members say police refused to call an ambulance despite her bleeding. Her current condition is unknown.
