More people are going to be murdered by ICE. It’s clear. The tactics ensure it, ICE is getting more furious and being disagreed with or resisted in any way, the verminous administration supports them and has shown they will tell any lie to support ICE murdering people.

“Once a Nobel Prize is announced, it cannot be revoked, shared, or transferred to others. The decision is final and stands for all time.”

Statement from The Norwegian Nobel Committee and the Norwegian Nobel Institute, issued today.
COLLINS: If Machado gives you her Nobel Peace Prize, will that change your view about her running that country?

TRUMP: Well, I have to speak to her. I think it's very nice she wants to come in, and that's what I understand the reason is. Because Norway is very embarrassed by what took place.

Contrary to the headlines in many media outlets calling Iran's protests merely "food riots," what is going on in the country is actually a deeper, more structured and complex movement.

So he's going to sell Alaska back, to not have Russia as a next door neighbor?
Trump: "If we don't take Greenland, you're gonna have Russia or China as your next door neighbor. That's not going to happen."

I hope they update this to add “that the officer called her a ‘fucking bitch’ is also significant”
This was written before today's video release, but this NY Times article is a really good rebuttal of the administration's lies that Renee Good's vehicle was a threat.

COLLINS: Minnesota officials say the FBI isn't sharing evidence with them. Do you believe the FBI should do that?

TRUMP: Well normally I would, but they're crooked officials. Minneapolis and Minnesota are being destroyed. I feel that I won Minnesota all three times. I won Minnesota three times.

“Renee Good’s death means something. Her face and her story speaks directly to the average person. It talks of family and love and dreams and dedication to her kids, smashed down by the thundering fist of a government terror organisation for no reason.”

they didn’t leak it to make the shooter look innocent, but to make the victim look guilty. not guilty of a crime. guilty of having a visibly queer wife. guilty of liberalism. guilty of opposing the regime. they don’t seek to exonerate themselves, only to demonstrate who deserves to die.
In the video that the shooter took, which I believe was leaked to be exculpatory, he appears to yell “fucking bitch” after he shoots Renee Good.

I made a fresh account to report on Grok's horrors and can confirm. followed 1 account, ESPN, and the feed was 90% Libsoftiktok, Elon, Matt Walsh, and sundry right wing slopaganda
Road report:

-I haven't done anything on Xitter since Nov 2024.

-Via someone's account, recently trawled through the main news feed.

It actually is shocking. Between the Grok-generated sexploitation, and white-supremacist cheerleading, that's most of the feed.

No "real" org should be there.

In America you drop your kid off at school, get your brains blown out on the ride home, then the Vice President drops everything for a week to call you a terrorist, to slander your family, to protect the circumstances that led to your death so they can do it again. It is government by Alex Jones.

What strikes me is how not alarmed she is. Because a reasonable human being in this country didnt used to expect an agent of the state pulling a gun over this level of interaction.
The ICE agent called her a "fucking bitch" after he killed her. One officer screams "Go, get out of here" while this officer says "Get out of the car." You clearly see her turn the wheel AWAY from him after he steps in front of her car. Did they think releasing this would help them?? cw // violence

Online hate and disinformation do not have easy solutions. But the Trump administration’s lies about European regulation are not about free speech. They are about power – preserving its own, promoting its far-right allies in Europe, and protecting its partners in Big Tech, writes David Kaye.

Also, this is how you know Musk and X are CIA assets. The game's up.
A US congresswoman is threatening to sanction the "whole of Britain" if the UK bans X.

I'm not posting the screenshot from the other place, but lol

Every country needs to ban X, just to let the United States know who is the boss of their country, because the United States thinks they're it.

Seems to me this was likely provided to Alpha News as exculpatory evidence, but it seems to be having the opposite effect.
