Europe definitely has to have a bunch of shit on the Epstein files. They should deploy it.

Of all the US Citizens who should feel the greater shame right now, it isn't those who voted for Trump. It is those who did not vote at all. They were just as responsible, but believe they can deny it.

Now that we’re all about “complying with the law” re Minnesota, does that extend to complying with the law re Epstein files?

Pritzker: The Insurrection Act is designed for circumstances where your rights can’t be protected by local authorities

This is exactly the opposite.

Your civil rights are being infringed upon by CBP and ICE, and then they want to call in troops claiming that they’re protecting CBP and ICE.

If democrats tell you not to organize or protest, don’t listen.

The so-called party of free speech and small government is happily supporting armed, masked government agents conducting “show me your papers” stops and brutalizing U.S. citizens.

Their real “party values” are terrorizing communities of color and anyone else who speaks out.

Remember this.

Writing an endorsement for a book, if done with care, is more than a so-called “blurb.” It requires time and finesse. I want to do justice by an author because that’s what I’d want. #booksky

AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.

semi-regular reminder that ICE was only created in 2003

when you are asked to imagine a world without ICE, you're basically being asked to remember where you were when Lilo & Stitch came out

I heard a good point. If that officer felt “threatened” by that lady such that he had to kill her, he is too fragile to be a cop.

The most enlightening and disappointing thing to come out of this ICE shooting is that the right legitimately does not give a fuck about human life if it harms their political narrative.

Watching people malign a 37 year old mother for being murdered by her country is insane.

Conway: This man is violating his oath in myriad ways each and every day. Impeachment is not an option. It is mandatory. It is required. It is morally, constitutionally, and legally obligated.
