Of the biggest scandals in US history just this week, I think I’d rank them:

1) Federal paramilitaries invade US city based on racist lies, murder US citizens

2) Slush fund for the president from stolen foreign resources held in Qatar

3) Whatever FBI and DNI are doing re: 2020 election in Georgia

Paid agitators?

Hell, I'd pay to BE an agitator right now.

Jamir Watkins with the D! Wizards win!

Enjoyed the spice level between Alex Sarr and Donovan Clingan tonight. Something to watch if Blazers and Wizards meet in Finals.

Sepp Blatter calling for people to stay away from the World Cup because of Trump’s racism is the equivalent of Jason Mendoza figuring out he is in the bad place. A real low for all involved.

Absolutely reprehensible that AG Bondi is offering ICE stand down in exchange for access to voting rolls. Outrageous and disgusting. It shows ICE is in Minneapolis is not for law enforcement purposes. Instead it’s a way to stir up shit in blue states and extort them.
In the wake of another fatal shooting in Minneapolis.
AG Pam Bondi sends Gov. Walz a letter today making several asks including:
"Allow DOJ Civil Rights division access to state voter rolls"

What's happening in Minnesota is one reason the Reconstruction Amendments banned insurrectionists from holding office. Unfortunately, the originalists on the Supreme Court interpreted the plain language of the amendment to mean its opposite.

Every politician supporting ICE is a collaborator in murder and abuse. (Looking at you Fetterman)

Shutting the government down because the president’s thug army keeps murdering American citizens for no reason seems pretty reasonable, IMO!

I said this last time but their real position is “if you disagree with us we can kill you.”

Democrats can and must make it clear there will be trials and anyone even somewhat associated with ICE will face them. Maybe give a quit-your-job deadline on appeasement and give people 72 hours. I don't know. But currently the plan is to let them murder us in the street and get away with it.

That is fascism. It is tyranny. It is governmental criminality.

And the ultimate legal check the Framers of our Constitution provided to stop this kind of tyranny and criminality in the executive branch is impeachment and removal of the executive.

Walz: Minnesota's justice system will have the last word on this.

As I told the white house in no uncertain terms this morning, the federal government cannot be trusted to lead this investigation. The state will handle it. Period.

Criminal tribunals will be the bare minimum, and are the modest response under the circumstances

I am doing my best to respond to this without a string of expletives. But let's be very clear. What just happened in Minnesota was cold blooded murder of a civilian by out of control federal agents, aided and abetted by the entire Trump administration and their fascist enablers.

This sure seems more like the tyranny the Constitution is supposed to protect against than forgiving student loans.

Federal agents are beating and murdering people in American streets. No half measures! Arrest the perpetrators. Impeach the leadership and make sure they too are arrested, tried, and convicted for their crimes.

Masked federal agents in Minnesota just shot and killed another person.

We must put a stop to Trump’s ICE. Now.

Stop the funding, stop the occupations, stop the killings.

the costs to society of this derangement are going to be enormous and every one of these people should face judgment for it
Breaking News: Rejecting decades of science, the chair of the federal panel that recommends vaccines for Americans said that shots against polio and measles — and perhaps all diseases — should be optional. The vaccines are credited with preventing disability and millions of deaths worldwide.
Vaccine Panel Chair Says Polio and Other Shots Should Be Optional, Rejecting Decades of Science
Dr. Kirk Milhoan, a pediatric cardiologist who leads the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, said a person’s right to refuse a vaccine outweighed concerns about illness or death from infectious diseases.

The biggest political story of the last 40 years is the Republican Party losing their fucking minds
Rep. Greg Steube: "You see Macron and the French sending troops to Greenland. I would love to see the US military up against French troops in Greenland, because it would not last very long. It would be a very small skirmish ... we don't care about what Macron and the French want."

That is an ICE agent pepper spraying a restrained victim in the face at close quarters; it's an unquestionable and indefensibly abusive use of excessive force that should (but won't) be criminally prosecuted as assault

One of the things I’m really struggling with about what’s going on in Minnesota is that if you describe what’s going on in plain, factual ways to someone who’s not paying close attention you sound completely, bugfuck crazy
Minnesota: "School officials say the [5-year-old] child was used as bait. They say [ICE] agents made little Liam knock on the door to ask to be let in in order to see if anyone else was home."

Home invasions without warrants, child abductions, shooting moms in the face, arresting protesters, wearing masks, no ID, carrying weapons of war—how hard is it to make that look bad?!
