An off-duty ICE agent was just confronted in Minneapolis after people noticed a Nazi SS lightning bolt tattoo on his neck.

If you’re proud enough to ink it on your neck, why are you running when people notice?

A lot of people with school-aged children are really struggling with this shit right now.

Hell, mine are in college, and it's bugging the FUCK out of me.

This asswipe murderer must pay for his utter failure as a human being and an ICE agent. These dickheads don't just get to assassinate people.

Always keep your cameras rolling. Federal officials are scheduled to appear in court today, where they’ll face questions over whether the government breached a prior order by deploying tear gas during immigration enforcement operations in the Chicago area.

Trump's deranged threat to fire federal workers and his killing of NY-NJ project are backfiring: Both are now big issues in VA-NJ gov races!

And new CNBC poll shows indys blaming Trump/GOP over Dems by 58-21.

On the pod, @simonwdc.bsky.social explains all this well:

… Exactly! There’s more of us than there are of them. There are multiple ways to protest!
More than 7 million protested. You can’t forget the millions fighting from their homes.

The president of the United States posted a video of him defecating on the American people. Many in my profession normalized it. This is a big reason why we are where we are.

… fuckin unacceptable and inexcusable. The regime couldn’t care less. 😞
So in western Alaska, thousands of people are homeless due to flooding rains, one person is dead & two people are missing. But yet, the regime hasn't said a word, no thoughts or prayers, nothing.
Once again, they could care less about Americans, it's about enriching themselves through GREED.

Not only that, but the current callous administration cut $20 million in EPA funding to combat coastal erosion at Kipnuk. The village flooded. The EPA is almost proud of it.

A Trump administration official said the cancellation of a $20 million grant to Kipnuk saved taxpayer dollars from being “swept into the Kuskokwim River.”

We are spending 175 billion dollars on ICE to brutalize communities and traumatize children for life.

This is being done in your name, with your tax dollars, on our watch. Don’t look away.

… love this so much! We went to the No Kings protest in Ocala, it was an amazing turnout and event. It was very peaceful and gave us some hope. There were 3 arrests made, however 2 were members of the Proud Boys, and 1 other instigator.
