The difference between 1930's Germany and America today is cellphones. That's it. Without them the government, as they are proven liars, would control every narrative. Cellphones are why they are failing. So yes, protest with your phones and have them ready to record.

Pro tip for any Hill journos, the Speaker can approve 24hr protection for Members who are under heightened threat. Omar used to have this, but Mike Johnson took it away. You should ask him about that

If you’ve got a parent in a nursing home, read this twice. Executives funneled $4.8M to Trump’s super PAC, met him privately, and pushed to kill a rule meant to stop neglect. Your family’s safety was sold for access.(NYT)

It is inconceivable to me that any Democrat would vote for a DHS funding bill that fails to include a mandate that requires these federal goons to take their masks off.

Kyle Rittenhouse was a hero to the right, but Pretti was a “domestic terrorist” for having a legal gun. The double standard with some on the right is astonishing. Alex Pretti’s murder will go down in history as a turning point in this Administration.

Indeed. I’m enjoying the schadenfreude but I’m no dummy.
Looks like Greg Bovino is the chosen fall guy as the Trump admin scrambles to navigate the anti-ICE backlash. Reportedly being "forced into retirement" and denied access to his social media accounts.
Don't accept it for a second. Keep pushing for full accountability.

Yes it is correct @adamkinzinger.substack.com. Your former party effectively killed the 2A today.
So the “everyone should be armed” second amendment crowd is using the fact the a man was armed (maybe) as justification?
Is this right?

No. We don’t need to “modify ICE training.” We need to close DHS. Dismantle it. It’s an outdated expensive bureaucracy that’s been usurped by violent white supremacists. Shut it down.
