For this week's #ThursdayFilmRec 🗃️🎥🍿🎬 #HATM

Watch or (Rewatch) "The Mortal Storm" (1940) - Dir. Frank Borzage, about the rise of Nazism (starring Jimmy Stewart & Margaret Sullavan).

It so infuriated Joseph Goebbels that he banned it in Germany & also all MGM films.

This DOJ is hopeless. They are just working on Trump's revenge project. Totally corrupt and lawless.
Maybe DOJ should focus on the law it’s violating, the Epstein Files Transparency Act, instead of speculating a crime might have been committed (despite multiple ballot recounts) in Fulton County or declining to investigate two homicides in Minneapolis?

When will the corruption ever end? How can MAGA think this is the right way?

Amazon just announced another round of 16,000 layoffs, months after it laid off 14,000 workers.

Reminder that Amazon CEO Andy Jassy raked in over $40M in 2024.

And Amazon is spending at least $75 million producing and promoting the Melania documentary.

The system is rigged.

Abolish ICE. I don’t want to hear they can’t. They fucking abolished every single agency put in place to protect us they can certainly abolish one that is terrorizing and murdering us.

If 8 black masked men shot a white dude, this country would literally bring back lynchings. Instead the ICE murderers got reassigned.

Trump is a petty little man always out for revenge.
Again, this stuff is beyond shameful & should have ended it all a long time ago:

the reason DHS officers wear masks is because it allows them to commit crimes with impunity. there is literally no legitimate reason for it.

This giant ICE Army they are building this year is also likely to be at polling places during the midterms in heavily Democratic precincts with the excuse being that they are looking for “illegals trying to vote.”
