I am 55. I wander the Earth. I now call Portland, OR, my home. There is so much to explore in life. To the mountains, prairies, and high desert. Across the seas and into the depth of the oceans. Outward to the stars. Full of life and peoples.
Yeah. My thought exactly when this being reported. There was no pivot. They just shuffled the cards, but they still hold the deck.
Reporting the Trump had “pivoted” was journalistic malpractice popular.info/p/how-legacy...

This. Wearing masks gives them anonymity. Which hides their identity. One of the fundamental problems with social media platforms as well. Anonymity is not safety.
the reason DHS officers wear masks is because it allows them to commit crimes with impunity. there is literally no legitimate reason for it.

I am open for conversations as long as they are respectful and civil. You respond with substantive argument, and I will respond with counter arguments. All good. But if you come into my threads to mock or ridicule me, that’s just an automatic block. Especially if you call me “My dude.”

Funny how local law enforcement wear, their names, badge number, and no masks every single day. But that’s tonight for the feds…🙄
Tillis says he opposes ICE being barred from wearing masks: "I've seen people dox me. I've seen people take pictures and identify law enforcement officers and then put their families at risk. So, I think that's a step too far."

There is simply no possible way you can listen to Trump for more than a minute and not know that he is a damn idiot.
Trump: "I just left a great group of people from Iowa and half of them were crying as they talked to me. I don't think they're crying because I'm doing a bad job. They said, 'Sir, you brought our country back.' Crying crying."

ALL of the agents involved in the murder of Alex Pretti should have been placed on leave, not just the 2 agents who shot him. Their excessive force actions assaulting bystanders directly led to Pretti’s killing.
Breaking news: The two federal immigration agents involved in the killing of Alex Pretti were placed on administrative leave, per standard agency protocol.
Two federal agents involved in Alex Pretti shooting placed on administrative leave
The development came a day after DHS provided the first official timeline of the deadly encounter, stating that two federal officers had fired at Alex Pretti.

The Liar-in-Chief disparaging the murder if Alex Pretty by federal agents.
Trump: "We take out drug dealers, we take out a whole group of people by the thousands. And if we get one person a little bit wrong -- headlines. But they don't talk about all the tremen-- the reason we have Minnesota crime down is because we took out so many criminals."

The simplicity of this notion that both sides are the same. The “Dems just want to regain power.” “Both sides” “Even Pete!” As a progressive I find these banal arguments full on bullshit. It’s the same kind of tunnel vision, blinders on mentality that ultra conservatives have.
Dems are not trying to save America from fascism, they’re trying to figure out how to regain power, and often becoming more conservative in order to try to do so. Buttigieg is a clear exp in how he has thrown trans ppl under the bus while also maintaining civility assimilationist politics.

Speaking out matters. Trump is not inevitable.
Republicans in Congress are FINALLY calling for hearings and accountability.
They even sent that vile, grandstanding camera hound, Bovino, packing from Minnesota.
There's a long way to go, but your voice DOES matter.

The pullback came after Trump and Walz had a "productive" phone call on the situation in Minnesota.

If you don’t understand the basic point of this comment that President Obama did not use ICE to terrorize states and cities who didn’t align with him politically and as President exercise due diligence to federal immigration law, don’t bother replying your idiotic takes.
Strange how under President Obama far more immigrants were deported without resorting to the Gestapo tactics currently employed by Trump lackeys. Almost like President Obama appointed competent people to run the government.

Texas has one of the highest population of undocumented immigrants in the nation…so…choices? Righto. 🙄
Bovino: "Choosing or making a choice is one of the only true freedoms any of us really have ... when as a politician you choose collusion & corruption as a choice, then there are consequences and actions that take place because of that. That's one reason CBP & ICE are here in Mpls by the thousands."

Actual law enforcement officers don’t go around wearing masks/balaclavas to hide their identities. Their names and badges and agency are visibly present on their uniforms. Unlike these immigrations agents who have no authority to stop vehicles in the streets or go door to door demanding papers.

I was actually rooting for the Bills to win. But really, if your team loses in the playoffs and your response is to hate on one of the most successful NFL team in the last decade…
It’s all good. I haven’t watched a single NFL this season. It’s just hilarious how much hate the Chiefs getting.
