A blue dot in a sea of red in North Central California. My thoughts are posted on my feed for all to see. I block freely and often; I’m not here to see how many followers I can garner.
Embedded video of another disgusting shooting. Someone said the victim was armed…I’ll wait for facts, and hopefully more video, but this is maddening.

A lot of news to cover!

I appreciate Minnesotans. They braved incredibly cold temperatures to take their stand.

Stories like this just drives me nuts, when every single last one in this administration calls themselves Christians! They are not following the message, that’s for sure.
In October, ICE grabbed Maher Tarabishi.

He was a 24/7 caregiver for his disabled son Wael.

At the time of Maher’s detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Wael’s caregiver put his life at risk.

Wael died on Friday at age 30.

ICE caused his death.

They didn’t get to say goodbye.
Disabled son of ICE detainee dies after 30 days of hospitalization
It had been months since Wael Tarabishi seen his father. The family is calling on ICE to release Maher Tarabishi so he may attend his son's funeral.

A win for Montana’s cattlemen.

These beings are not considered livestock, because they are allowed to be wild and free, and will not be used for meat production.
Ilya Somin: Trump Admin Bureau of Land Management just ruled bison are not "livestock," thus barring private bison-farming on federal land. This great masterpiece of legal reasoning is up there with "bees are fish" and "sidewalks are not pedestrian ways
Bureau of Land Management says bison are not livestock, obstructing plans for a huge private prairie reserve
The American Prairie nonprofit seeks to create a 5,000-square-mile prairie reserve in Montana where buffalo may roam and antelope play.

I’m posting this for a reason….

People get old; stuff happens. I bumped my hand on a table; not that hard! I have thin, fair skin (heredity), and I take cholesterol medication, but that’s it. I do not drink or do drugs. I’m three years younger than Trump. I’m too old to be POTUS! So is Trump!

It’s good to see people standing up against the ICE goons and the weaponized DOJ.

Ya gotta feel for the officers who defended the Capitol that day…the ones who were beaten and spit upon and tried their best to protect all lawmakers inside. The Republicans, today, didn’t recognize a single officer.

Jack Smith’s testimony….

Basically a partisan circus…not really worthy of time. The various news organizations and political parties will spin that they “won” the day….

Republicans spent their time defaming Smith…what a poor prosecutor he was…a failure in his profession; their teeth were barred.

Here’s a man who needs to be looking in the mirror. I realized that when he looks in the mirror, he sees the most awesome person ever created, but what he says is the true reflection of himself…fake, out of control, destroying, ridiculous, dangerous, deranged, sick, corrupt, fraudulent, false…
The post of an absolute madman.

Good gawd. Reason enough to do away with these goons…and they want more money for more facilities! For what? Yes, there may be millions of undocumented people in this country, but why not spend effort reforming our immigration system, or hiring more immigration judges?
There’s no reforming this

Trump:

"Usually they say, 'he's a horrible dictator-type person, I'm a dictator. But sometimes you need a dictator. But they didn't say that in this case [referring to his Davos speech]".

He claimed it.

Today’s the day.

This must be Jack Smith’s opening statement.
Jack Smith: "My fear is that we have seen the rule of law function in our country for so long that many of us have come to take it for granted. The rule of law is not self-executing. It depends on our collective commitment to apply it."

And a court said this was okay? It’s not!
SEEING IS BELIEVING

DHS claims the car being chased rammed the ICE vehicle. The video shows the opposite.

📌 A father and son, a US citizen, are chased. The teen is beaten and seriously injured. The father is deported.

DHS lied. The video tells the truth. Excellent reporting by Antonia Hylton.

Pro-life…all about a fetus, but they couldn’t care less about children already living, except maybe their own…heaven forbid their children wouldn’t be like “them.” People who think they are better than others and call themselves Christians. 😡
“Children’s food contaminated with worms and mold, limited clean drinking water, inadequate medical care among allegations raised by migrant families in court filings about conditions their CHILDREN faced in federal custody.”
