A man was arrested for sitting in a church. Of course, they'll come after activists trying not to pay taxes.
Asking a question for a friend. What would happen if Democracy loving Americans deprived the Federal Government of funds by simply not filing tax returns until the Government again functions for everyone?

Do not fall for this garbage. DHS came into my city with an offensive posture, conducted itself as an invader, often attacked residents without any plausible connection to immigration enforcement, violently seized people off the streets. Now it’s our fault people died?

I would have been unsurprised if the Fulton County DA was targeted by the Administration for investigation, but going directly after the Fulton County elections office is an entirely different and potentially startling development.

Federal law enforcement agents shot and killed a man in Minneapolis on Jan. 24 according to local police officials. DHS told Fox News that the man was “armed with a gun”. A video of the shooting appears to show that a gun was taken from the man before the first shot was fired. x.com/BillMelugin_...

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.
The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

Initial report is that two observers got into a shoving match with eight agents, one observer was wrestled to the ground, and then an ICE agent pulled out a sidearm and shot the man on the ground five times.

Jack Smith finally has his chance to testify in a public hearing before the House Judiciary starting at about 10 AM. Years from now when people assemble accounts of Trump’s conduct, his testimony likely will be front & center, kind of like Alexander Butterfield starts all the Watergate documentaries
