Wow! This made my day that someone actually read, liked and shared my post!
LOVE THIS! I do fully support a local artist here in Portland, OR. Bought him an electric guitar for Xmas at age 13 yrs old. He loved it so much that he threw away his toy guns and hasn't stopped playing guitars. At 20 yrs old he released his first album last year. music.youtube.com/watch?v=pJIq...

I wonder how many times Kyle Rittenhouse would have been shot if ICE had been at the protest where he openly brandished, UNLIKE Alex Pretti, a much higher capacity firearm. bsky.app/profile/mind...
OFFICIAL: Kristi Noem now licensed to lie, justify murder of innocent U.S. citizens, spew contradictions and stupidity as shamelessly as Trump.

Yes.

This is why ICE does this in Blue cities:

Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump.

Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

The Washington Post published a clear video of federal agents removing Alex Pretti's handgun moments before he was fatally shot. There's nothing in the video to suggest Pretti even reached for his weapon.

I appreciate those out there protesting at great risk to their lives however i think the nation needs to grind this economy to a dead stop.
It's something everyone can do safely. No spending on ANYTHING but absolute necessities.
I understand some shut ins can not do this but very many of us can.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

WSJ says ICE is lying.

Read that again…. The Wall Street Journal is calling out the lies

Leaders of the so-called “pro-life, small government” party who relentlessly warn of tyranny are standing by as masked agents roam the country and brutalize its people. The hypocrisy isn’t surprising — but it’s staggering. Remember this.

“Please get the truth out about our son.”

Read and share the statement from the parents of Alex Pretti, the VA ICU nurse who was shot and killed by border patrol.

They say “where’s the gun?” — After the shots

Because they don’t realize one of them had already taken it — before the shots

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

DAVE MATTHEWS: “I don’t want my taxes to pay for masked thugs to roam our streets & terrorize our communities... She was trying to get away. He shot her 3x in the head. Murdered in cold blood. They’re trying to tell us not to believe what we see. FUCK ICE.”

I can't believe I'm posting this video - but we actually have to have a conversation about the real world implications of America going to war over Greenland.

Let me walk you through it. It doesn't turn out well for us.

I’m heading back to Portland today to demand a full investigation into the shooting last night.

We need answers and we need accountability.
