In this video, it appears Alex Pretti is trying to protect another protester from being assaulted by federal agents when he is sprayed in the face with some kind of substance and then shot to death:

We already had the real-world experience of unvaccinated people getting measles, and it's why we invented the vaccine for measles.

It's one thing to be a sociopath playing with the lives of others. It's another to be gleefully stupid about it.
RFK Jr. appointee Kirk Milhoan has just clearly stated, out loud, that he wants to experiment on the people of the United States by seeing what happens as vaccination coverage plummets and infectious diseases spread.

Repeat after me - the institutions of this economy depend on the institutions of this democracy, among which is the rule of law

This is exactly my sentiments! Why isn’t anyone talking about this storm that has destroyed so much? Do we have to see people die before it becomes news?
Una semplice domanda:
perché l’eccezionale ondata di maltempo che ha colpito Sardegna, Sicilia e Calabria ionica non è sulle prime pagine dei giornali nazionali???

Siamo di fronte ad un evento che ha prodotto danni ingenti…1/2

Mi chiedo lo stesso. Non solo nei TG e nei GR, ho sentito un Meteo nazionale stamattina e si parlava di qualcosa tipo "ancora problemi al Centro-Sud"...

Onde alte raggiungono l'abitato, oltre il lungomare. Registrati allagamenti, alberi abbattuti e disagi alla viabilità, senza conseguenze per le persone. E' ancora allerta rossa

This is a gargantuan storm. I still can’t get over it. In terms of girth, it’s def in the top 5 that I recall.
This will impact 2/3rds of the nation and half of the country in a big way. Longevity too, with us Friday-Monday! And the brutal cold that follows. 🥶
Disruption deep into next week!

I just can't believe we're at a point where mainstream press are writing headlines essentially saying "schools are sheltering in place because federal agents are threatening students."

He goes on to describe one of his officers being stopped when she was off-duty solely because she's non-white, harassed by ICE goons who slapped her phone out of her hand as she tried to record, only to be let go when she finally revealed she was a cop.
Brooklyn Park police chief Mark Bruley: "We're hearing people being stopped with no cause & being demanded to show paperwork to determine if they're here legally. We started hearing from our police officers the same complaints. Every one of these individuals is a person of color... it has to stop"

I’m old enough to remember when there used to be a Congress that knows it’s a separate branch of government with actual responsibilities articulated by the Constitution.

By this standard, the Iranian government could indict Trump for the bombing of their nuclear sites and then send Quds Force to invade Mar-a-Lago to kidnap him.

We are setting a dangerous precedent and the world is a less safe place because of it.
Vance pushes back and says this was not illegal, arguing "Maduro has multiple indictments in the United States for narcoterrorism. You don't get to avoid justice for drug trafficking in the United States because you live in a palace in Caracas."

Can our Congress do anything? Do they have the courage?
hey remember when a bunch of middle-aged drunk korean lawmakers climbed the locked gates to the national assembly to hold an emergency session after the president gave illegal orders to the military, all of which ended with said president being sentenced to prison

So are we going to overthrow every country that has criminal leaders and run that country? Why not Hungary? Cuba? Eritrea? etc. Asking @democrats.senate.gov @housedemocrats.bsky.social @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social

Wake up to what the f*ck just happened? Why? Listening to news condemning what has happened and can any president or leader of a country decide to do what just happened and would that be okay? There are many wanted criminals and nothing is being done about them so that excuse is null and void.
