This won’t be reported on MSM. But 2 days ago, in Gresham Or. a suburb of Portland, a young woman, 25, who was a citizen was beaten and detained for 7 hours by ICE.

Her crime? She recorded a video of the mistreatment of immigrants- or just those who look like them- by ICE.

Only in America.

Apparently Trump just raised tariffs on Canada another 10%, “…because the ad (about Reagan opposing tariffs) …wasn’t removed fast enough”.

Does the terms “narcissistic sociopath” seem to fit perfectly?

This really is a question. Not a comment or observation. I was listening to a podcast and it was mentioned that Trump is starting to really smell bad.

Don’t know if it is illness related or just a heavy dose of a bad cologne.

Has anyone else heard this?

Another person died in ICE custody. This one a DACA member. So he came to this country as a young child despite DACA status is picked up by ICE and is now dead.

At least the 14th person detained by ICE. to die.

This is who we are.

Trump’s gestapo, well ICE, arrested a young teenager with Down’s Syndrome in Oakland today.

Every time that you think the cruelty can’t get any worse, it does.

Watching (KNBC) some very brave people in Camarillo Ca as the military rounds up and attacks innocent people. They arrest people who are US citizens. They, including ICE are attacking people who are protesting peacefully.

We are living in a police state. Absolutely and without doubt.

Just a short while ago NBC in Los Angeles showed a video of Narciso Barranco being beaten up by federal agents while gardening at an IHOP in Santa Ana. Mr Barranco has 3 sons serving in the Marine Corps.

The federal agents wore no uniforms and were wearing masks.

America under Trump

Musk was quoted yesterday as saying that one of the biggest problems with Western culture is “empathy”.

That explains a lot of what Musk/Trump have done since January.

In Orange County in California a couple who has been in this country for 35 years And have Never committed a crime are being deported.

They had stayed in contact with the government and annually had permission to stay.

This is who we are.

This is who we have become,

An undocumented El Monte (CA) mother, a 25-year U.S. resident and caregiver for her cancer-stricken daughter, is back home on a $1,500 bond for now and wearing an ankle bracelet after being caught up in ICE arrests and detained for almost two weeks. (SGVTribune)

Not being able to talk to a real person at the Social Security Administration when you need help or your local office closing due to staffing cuts is a benefit cut—point blank.

Elon needs to get his hands OFF Social Security.

Repost if you agree.

These are the darkest days in our country’s history.

Over 250 years we have made admittedly a number of mistakes, here and overseas.

But never have we so cruelly aligned ourselves with a vicious dictatorship - against a small courageous nation fighting for their freedom.

Our darkest days.

We are at Costco. The parking lot is never this full. Haven’t had this many people here since the Pandemic! People worried about Tariffs? Superbowl? Your take?

It’s a dark day in America…if

You are a woman, or one who believes that a woman should be able to make her own choices.

If you are dark and from south of the border.

If you, a member of your family or friend is a member of the LGBT community.

If you believe in freedom & equality for all
