Trump pardoned the ex-president of Honduras who shoveled hundreds of tons of cocaine into the U.S. He pardoned the founder of a black market who imported fentanyl from China.

These men poisoned America & killed millions. Whatever Trump’s illegal boat strikes are about, it sure isn’t drugs.
Trump move to pardon Honduras’s ex-president shows counter-drug effort is ‘based on lies and hypocrisy’
Why has Trump blown up alleged narco boats in the Caribbean and at the same time decided to let a big-time trafficker off the hook?

My spousal unit and I are Gen Jones. We were just having a conversation about what our respective schools used as "pizza crusts." Question: If your cafeteria didn't use pizza crust on pizza day, did they use the bottom of a hamburger bun (my husband's) or an English muffin (mine)? Or??

It's that time of year when people feel nostalgic for their grandmother's cream cheese Jello "salad." This is a video I made in the Before Times on how to make my grandmother's version. The link to the printable recipe is in the YouTube description. #vintagecooking

I keep thinking about how SNAP subsidizes American farmers and feeds American children and their families and cuts to SNAP will fuck farmers and starve children and their families and that's a pretty batshit thing to actively want to do

Can we pick anymore fights? Who will Trump send to Blue states, when everyone has to go to a new war? Would marines rather be in LA or Tehran?

Mark this for the history books: “We’re talking about the president exercising his authority, and the president is of course limited to his authority. That’s the difference between a constitutional government and King George,” said Judge Charles Breyer.

Here’s the 3rd paragraph of Fox’s main story on the manhandling of Sen. Alex Padilla. It quotes the Trump regime as saying Padilla didn’t identify himself. Fox knows that’s a lie because they have video of him identifying himself. But they never call out the lie.
Fox is fascist propaganda.

Not taking anything away from Senator Padilla because he was treated atrociously

But I JUST want to remind everyone that the Congresswoman LaMonica McIver, a Black woman, was just indicted for just asking questions at an ICE detention center in her state

Keep that same energy of support for her

"I am Senator Alex Padilla" is the first thing he says.

I do think that this administration has crossed a trip wire today with Kristi Noems comments and the arrest of US Senator Padilla.

"We are staying here to "liberate" the city from "socialist" and burdensome leadership"

Good God! She may have just sparked a civil war! God help us all.

Yes. This. Let's not lose the plot because of our outrage at how our duly elected senator was manhandled.
Here's Kristi Noem admitting that the Trump regime is trying to overthrow the authority of duly elected state and city officials for political reasons. This is what a fascist dictatorship looks like.

This video from Senator Padilla's staff, shared to Twitter by Fox LA's Elex Michaelson, shows Padilla forced to the ground by men wearing FBI uniforms who then handcuff him behind his back. This is after he is forcibly removed from the Noem press conference for asking a question.

One of my Senators, Senator Alex Padilla, was forcefully removed from Noem’s press conference and thrown to the ground.

Trump thinks California will explode over this. Support Padilla, stay calm, and carry on.

We won’t explode!😈🖕🏼
