I don't understand US peeps going on about the Epstein files. You all know he's guilty already.

He's got secret police kidnapping, attacking and killing people already. He's effectively resigned you from NATO and is threatening a war against the rest of us.

It's not distraction.

Karoline Leavett in her sadistic reading of the Renee Good killing told a reporter:
"You’re pretending like you’re a journalist, but you’re a left-wing activist".
Yeah, and you are pretending to be a press secretary, but you are a propagandist for a fascist regime.
Just end the "briefings".

Renee Good's family is accusing federal immigration officers of killing the Minneapolis mother of three as she attempted to follow agents' instructions, and have now hired the same law firm that represented George Floyd's family to press for answers and accountability.

Arnoldo Bazan, a 16-year-old U.S. citizen, was put in a chokehold by ICE agents.

Agents took his phone, which he tracked to a used electronics vending machine near an ICE detention center.

Yes: ICE is stealing and selling people’s things after brutalizing them. There are no words.

I was telling one of my kids that it was physically impossible for an ad to play between songs on any of the records I own, and they asked "and you only have to pay for it once?" and you could see how strange that seemed. You cannot overstate how many basic rules of media consumption have changed.

Newly available videos and existing footage synchronized and assessed by The Times provide a millisecond-by-millisecond look at how an ICE officer ended up shooting and killing a motorist in Minneapolis.

It also establishes how he put himself in a dangerous position near her car in the first place.

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.

State investigators have been on the scene in North Minneapolis.

I know you’re angry. I’m angry. What Donald Trump wants is violence in the streets.

But Minnesota will remain an island of decency, of justice, of community, and of peace.

Don’t give him what he wants.
