🚨Don Lemon shared this clip 30 minutes ago: State Police vehicles which were intended to be used as barriers between ICE and protesters. Here we see them turning towards protesters. The state police are getting 2 different sets of orders and we all see which ones are being followed.

So horrified & ashamed that our country has been taken over by a criminal dictator.Especially because our founders set guardrails to prevent this, but Congress will not use them.
Why? Because Republicans fear him.
Why? Because they're in the Epstein files-KEY to it all.

Maine alert: ICE is expanding its presence. Know the signs, alert neighbors, document safely, and stay nonviolent—but don’t stay silent. Community awareness saves lives. Save this graphic. Share widely.

Pedophile, convicted felon and aspiring genocidal dictator. I love Big Macs. Highlight of my day is watching videos of ICE beat up kids with Kristi Noem as she gives me a handjob and sticks her finger up my ass. I'm gonna trigger WWIII w/Iran while destroying NATO. Please Love Me.

When Republicans voted for the Epstein Files Transparency Act

And Trump signed it

IT WAS ALL A ROUSE!

The Regime is still doing all it can to stonewall release of the files!

And Republicans who voted for the Act are nearly all silent about it!
