White people are putting Mexican flag stickers on their cars to get pulled over and waste ICE's time.
They call it "ICE fishing."

You've heard of "Find 'n' Delete"? How 'bout "Find 'n' Redact"?
While they're at it, ask why the word "don't" (Don T) was redacted.

OK, maybe he’s witty, but an “erudite” jurist would know that adverb—adjective pairs are not to be hyphenated. That practice is for non-adverbs modifying an adjective.

By all appearances, the “BlueAnon conspiracy theorists” were right about everything.
There is an elite cabal of billionaire pedophiles, but their project is not just to fuck kids. Their project is to fuck America, forever.

Searching through the Epstein files, and slowly realizing that he was no sideshow, that Russia and the PayPal Mafia were effectively *working for him* is the worst mindfuck I’ve ever experienced.
The Big Reveal is that it was Epstein’s psyop all along.

The Big Reveal: It Was Epstein’s Psyop All Along
Trump’s paranoia about the files is not about his sexual deviance. It’s because they prove he’s a loser.

Uh… they *already* “have to be” released. They have not been only through a contempt of the law by Trump’s administration. What makes you think the Clintons can bring the DoJ in line?

I'm sure you all realized that Trump's interest in rare earth minerals is driving his lust for Greenland. But here are some details to make it clearer.
A key point: Schiller was Trump's personal bodyguard 1999-2017. I bet he saw some *shit*! Is he extorting The Don?!

Am I the I the only one who occasionally gets the impression that Trump acts more out of a desire to be contemptible than out of his own self-interest? I mean, this isn’t going to pad his pockets, right? It’s just sheer assholery 😡

This isn’t immigration policy. It’s a business model.
ICE keeps growing, not because it makes America safer, but because corporations are raking in billions off cages, bodies, and suffering. ICE’s existence is a massive revenue stream.

In case y'all don't know how Roundup is used, they spray it directly on the crops (wheat, oats, barley, peas, lentils, canola, corn; sometimes chickpeas, sunflowers, apples and grapes) just before harvest to kill them and dry them quickly for easier harvesting. So yeah—we're eating it every damn day
The Supreme Court is considering whether to take up a case on glyphosate. They should.
Otherwise, the growing state patchwork of pesticide labeling laws could force glyphosate or other pesticides off the market, costing farmers over $1 billion. thebreakthrough.org/issues/food-...

What if Trump’s game isn’t to steal Venezuela’s oil to sell it? What if he just wants to shut off production to raise global prices, which have been in a slump? That would benefit both U.S. companies and his good buddies in Arabia.
