Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

There is video circulating on social media of a group of ICE agents beating a man near 26th and Nicollet in south Minneapolis, then one of the ICE agents shoots the man while he's on the ground numerous times. A witness can be heard yelling that the victim is dead.

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."

Hell No!!
Deporting children with cancer.
Using a 5-year-old as bait.
Shooting moms.

ICE is beyond reform. And today the House is voting to bankroll more terror. Hell no.

Lindsey Graham-talking about Donald Trump-in 2016

"I think he's a kook. I think he's crazy. I think he's unfit for office”

Graham in 2017

“What concerns me about the American press is this endless, endless attempt to label the guy some kind of kook not fit to be president”

Yes-these are accurate

This is not a rational person. And this is deeply disturbing coming from an American President. NATO is not our enemy—they are unequivocally our closest friends and allies.

At this point, how can you not call into question the mental fitness of this President?

I flew down to south Texas today to do my job - investigate why people are dying in ICE detention centers.

I was just illegally denied entry to Dilley Detention Center. Because they have something to hide.

Here's an update from the post I shared a few days back.

The 21 year old youngster who protesting peacefully & holding a speaker and was shot in the face by #ICE point blank has been permanently blinded in 1 eye!

Please share this story widely!

Greenland PM Jens-Frederik Nielsen:

"If we have to choose between the US & Denmark here and now, we choose Denmark. We choose NATO. We choose the Kingdom of Denmark. We choose the EU."

"Greenland does not want to be owned by the US. Greenland does not want to be governed by the US" he later added.

At least Obama's hypothetical Death Panels would have decided who deserved to die based on a rubric more complicated than "did they just piss off a high school dropout armed by the state"

Frost: For so long, the right wing has held up patriotism as a vibe, as an aesthetic. But patriotism is more than bald eagles and flags and beer. Patriotism is about loving the people who live in the damn country — every single one of them.

So Trump grifted America and other countries. Now HE tries to scare us into thinking we are going to pay it back, letting SCOTUS know how awful it would be. He made a ton of money from it so HE SHOULD HAVE TO PAY IT BACK. SCOTUS BETTER ORDER HIM TO PAY IT BACK.

DHS is quoting the KKK on X. At this point, it’s hard to call it anything but AmeriKKKa. “We’ll have our home again” has been used historically in Ku Klux Klan propaganda, chants, and publications, particularly in the early–mid 20th century

My anger at having to stand outside my kid’s school for two hours to ensure none of their classmates, parents, or teachers get kidnapped by my own government is only slightly tempered by the amazing outpouring of support from other parents and especially neighbors who stand against this bullshit.

“This isn’t just about one researcher or one organization. It’s about whether exposing disinformation is treated as a civic duty, or as an act of resistance punishable by the state. And that’s exactly why they’re being targeted.”
Let’s talk about something not many people are chatting about and what’s actually happening right now.

You might wonder why Imran Ahmed and the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) suddenly became targets of the U.S. government. The honest answer is that their research hit where it hurt.

Nothing to see here. This is definitely a normal post that perfectly demonstrates appropriate behavior for a man with grave responsibilities to the nation and absolutely, positively does not show psychological derangement and incapacity to serve as president under section 4 of the 25th Amendment.
