Yet, Miles recalled one agent calling it “fake.”

MAJOR: The Trump Administration has been caught lying about the D.C. shooting suspect.

The truth: He was vetted by Trump. He had a CIA badge, worked with the CIA in Afghanistan, and granted asylum by Trump in April.

I think I’m going to be sick.
Federal law says only the deceased can appear on U.S. currency. But on Monday, the Trump administration defended its plan to mint a $1 coin bearing the image of President Trump.

People changing their mind and speaking out on the horrors of Gaza is a good thing. But if a person “changing their mind” is in power, and they do not subsequently use that power in accordance with the seriousness of the new conclusion they have arrived at, then that’s a problem.

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

Secret police” got the name because they do surveillance and are often plain-clothed (or in ICE’s case masked). But the thing that has defined them since the 18th century was that they operate independently of civil police with a goal of maintaining social and political control.

Again, that’s ICE.
“Secret police” are your words, not mine. Seems like you’ve been giving them a lot of thought.

Unlike NYPD, your agents don’t identify themselves & wear masks that cover their faces. Now they ignore judges’ rulings, too.

What law enforcement agents are supposed to uphold … is the rule of law.

This is absolutely nuts. And so so wrong.
The US is imposing sanction on Francesca Albanese for refusing to stay silent about its participation in the genocide in Gaza.

It is no coincidence that these sanctions follow her report specifically on economic complicities in the genocide.

The fact that Israeli warplanes are still bombing the hell out of Iran after the supposed end of the Iranian nuclear program sort of confirms this was never about the nuclear program, doesn’t it
