DHS is shutting down because it refuses to obey the law. They are tear-gassing schools, killing American citizens, and disappearing legal immigrants. Democrats shouldn’t fund an out of control ICE.

all the media being stenographers for the feds and just repeating the drawdown nonsense should go to the whipple building today so they can see the same amount of masked men leaving in convoys of vehicles, and whatever this is too, and report accurately what’s happening on the ground in minnesota
So this is weird. The National Guard is staging at the Whipple building this morning. This is what you do when preparing for a mission.

We legit need a massive class action lawsuit against Meta for allowing people to take our pictures, record us, and now scanning our faces against our wills. At least when someone holds up a camera, you can kinda catch them. Now I gotta worry about some jagoff in dorky glasses.

DHS funding runs out today. That means we have real leverage in this fight since a funding bill can’t pass without Democratic votes. Call your Members of Congress and demand they reject any bill that doesn’t stop ICE and CBP terror.

Episode 6.
Might require a rewatch. Im not sure how I feel about it yet. Maybe because ive seen a lot of Trek, but from the get, I knew how it was all gonna play out. It was enjoyable. I liked the monologue at the end.
(the wife is stoned and slept through it.) lol
