“I want people to know what happened to him, a man who lived 30 years here, hardworking, paid taxes, and they treated him like an animal," said Gantchev's wife, a U.S. citizen who asked the I-Team not to use her name as she fears retaliation from federal officials.

Absolutely horrific details about an ICE shooting in Minneapolis.

A witness says a woman was trying to drive away from an ICE operation and the ICE agent "reached across the hood of the car and shot her in the face like three, four times."

Bovino was there.

Hard to read but he’s not wrong. While some of us our fighting daily, I personally know a LOT of people who are apathetic, not paying attention, and think things are not that bad. They roll their eyes when I start railing… there she goes again. How are we to rally America? Anyone?

LLMs are not sentient, are not human. Grok cannot “apologize” or explain how or why any of this is happening. But of course major outlets such as Bari Weiss’s CBS News wrote that Grok “acknowledged ‘lapses in safeguards'." @jasonkoebler.bsky.social with more:

We have learned which politicians - on both sides - are complicit, and now we’re learning which media companies AND on-air “reporters” are as well. NEVER FORGET. @cbsnews.com.web.brid.gy
This is what state-regime media looks like.

CBS News ran a segment gushing over Rubio — calling this his “moment" and saying: “Florida, once an American punchline, has become a leader on the world stage. Marco Rubio, we salute you! You are the ultimate Florida Man!”

The regime has announced two proposed rules intended to make it extremely difficult, if not impossible, for trans youth to receive the healthcare they need.

Your public comments probably won't sway this transphobic regime, but they will be very important for future lawsuits:

The federal government has proposed two new rules that could make it virtually impossible for transgender youth to get the health care they need.

This is blatantly illegal. A president can’t go into the oil business and then decide where to spend the money. We are completely untethered from our founding document with a lawless president and a Republican Congress which has abdicated all Constitutional authority.

See thread.
“Internal SSA documents show that the agency is seeking to serve 50% fewer Americans in its field offices in 2026. Those plans have raised more concerns that the agency is ‘quietly killing field offices.’”

So TPUSA is pro-immigrant?

“There is no American who is more American than somebody else,” he said. “Either you’re an American or you’re not.”

While Ramaswamy received applause from the audience at AmericaFest, his speech received heavy backlash from Republicans on social media.
Awwww: Vivek Ramaswamy Leaves Social Media After Angering Republicans With Speech. In other words Vivek told the GOP to stop being white supremacists and they drove him off social media for saying that. Vivek thought he was one of them. They will always hate him www.mediaite.com/politics/viv...

No notes.
Random thoughts:

Turn to doctors for vaccine advice. Government health is now partisan-fueled, not patient-driven.

Think hard about what you read & where you read it. There’s lots of complicity in the legacy media. Never forget it.

Believe nothing the DJT regime says w/o checking it.
Nothing.

WH sources say Venezuela's opposition leader committed the "ultimate sin": She accepted the Nobel Peace prize.

“If she had turned it down and said, ‘I can’t accept it because it’s Donald Trump’s,’ she’d be the president of Venezuela today,” one said.

The National Association of Medical Examiners has issued a warning about the lung float test, a controversial, centuries-old forensic tool that has contributed to cases in which women who said they'd experienced a stillbirth were charged with murder.
Medical Examiners Warn That Controversial Lung Float Test Could Be Dangerous
An exam meant to determine whether a baby was born dead or alive is of “questionable value,” the National Association of Medical Examiners cautions. The paper follows a ProPublica report on how the test had been used against women accused of murder.

In Trump's press conference Saturday on Venezuela he mentioned the word "oil" more than 25 times. How many times did he mention "democracy" or "freedom" for the people of Venezuela? ZERO!
