Nebraskan now calling Minneapolis home.
I post recipes, political takes, and lots of waterfall and pet pictures.

This guy is allowed to ask questions to the Pentagon while real reporters are kept out.

Republicans only trust fellow pedophiles is the logical conclusion here and no media will cover that.
The House Ethics Committee found that Matt Gaetz did all of the horrible things previously claimed—sex trafficking minors, prostitution (including of minors), drugs, drunk driving, obstruction, the works. The Florida Bulldog has secured and published the House report this evening.

He was already on the ground. This is government-sponsored sadism. That is, Trump-sponsored sadism.
This video filmed by Ben Luhmann shows the moment a federal agent sprayed chemical irritants directly into a man's face in south Minneapolis.

Three agents already had the man pinned to the ground when a fourth agent walked up and sprayed the irritants.

Definitely. Take it straight from the oil, crypro & AI guys.
Not sure what the mechanism is, but the next Democratic administration needs to pay reparations to Minneapolis, St. Paul, and every other city illegally brutalized by these gangsters. Just like $3 billion to Minneapolis for a city sovereign wealth fund. Straightforward matter of justice

For those keeping score:
- Officers DO NOT have a responsibility to try and save anyone, even kids at the school they were hired to protect.
- Officers DO have the right to pepper spray you when you are restrained, break down your door as they please, and shoot innocent people.

Don’t mess with officers in Texas, but feel free to mess with the kids all you want.

That this tweet says the same nonsensical thing three times means it is a spell, right?

To say what our government is doing is unconscionable greatly under states what’s happening?
Minnesota: "School officials say the [5-year-old] child was used as bait. They say [ICE] agents made little Liam knock on the door to ask to be let in in order to see if anyone else was home."

Is it @startribune.com policy to refer to anyone confronting ICE as a protester? This obscures the nature of what people are doing. We're not protesting ICE. We're constitutional observers documenting human rights abuses by agents of the state.

Will this be fully ignored by tomorrow’s @nytimes.com and @washingtonpost.com or will it be celebrated?

Cities Church in Saint Paul thinks this is just giving communion to the unfaithful.

That there will be arrests for protesting that church and this torture will go REWARDED by the Trump government is maddening.

This is just inflicting pain and suffering because they can.

The nazis are here and they are nazi-ing unchecked by the Judiciary and with the support of the Executive and Legislative branches.

As a country, we are the baddies because of the GOP.
Minneapolis, today.

Note how three agents holding the civilian down.

Why spray?

“The NYTimes Epstein Reporting Removal Act is a huge with for America. Greenbay and NAFTA should celebrate this decision.”

If Europe found a way for him to save face and move on, great. But Carney's speech was still spoken and was still true. The bell has rung.

Imagine a newspaper printing “Bank robber says he won’t kill hostages, urges negotiations to get bank’s money.”

That is exactly what Trump is doing to Greenland and the media just plays along.

We need better news organizations and many should be burnt to the ground.

Remember what I said about how when Trump falters, the media inserts a fake, imaginary version of Trump into the news instead?
Right on cue, here are the push alerts from the 3 major newspapers lmao

MSNBC or some other quasi-sane media organization needs to do a show where it has Republican Media devotees watch Trump speeches and then defend GOP Media headlines.

It would be hilarious.
Trump is giving a deranged, rambling monologue in Davos to an audience stunned into silence. He sounds incredibly tired, his voice raspy; he keeps trailing off into long pauses. It's jaw-dropping.

The sanewashing headlines are going to say "Trump Doubles Down On Greenland Demand In Davos Speech"

This sounds awfully close to a felony threat against a US Congresswoman.
Trump: "We have this fake congressperson who they just reported is worth $30 million. You believe this? Ilhan Omar talking about 'the Constitution provides me-' She comes from a country that's not a country & she's telling us how to run America. Not gonna get away w/ it much longer, let me tell you"
