This guy went to work today, put a mask on, kidnapped a 5 year old child, and then used him as bait so both he and his father could be sent behind bars

The House Ethics Committee found that Matt Gaetz did all of the horrible things previously claimed—sex trafficking minors, prostitution (including of minors), drugs, drunk driving, obstruction, the works. The Florida Bulldog has secured and published the House report this evening.

ICE is a child trafficking organization led by a man who has sexually assaulted women and is heavily documented as being part of Jeffrey Epstein's child rape community.

Shut. It. Down.

🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional!

ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.

I keep saying this, but it doesn't do any good to peel off 3-4 Republican votes if Democrats vote for this.

Call your representatives. Let them know you're watching what they're doing
If you have a Dem rep, call them.

If you've called them before, do it again.

They may be limited in what they can do, but it's still not a good reason for a failure in leadership and the ability to stand together as a party.
NEWS: While Hakeem Jeffries has announced he's opposing the DHS/ICE funding bill tomorrow, his team is not whipping the vote. Several frontliners are expected to vote yes. There's a difference in leadership between personal vote decisions & unifying the caucus.

'Why aren't they in the streets' is answered almost every day in my small town by people in the streets! Rather than asking 'why aren't they in the streets' it's worth asking 'why isn't your media showing them in the streets' and 'who is served by downplaying resistane in its myriad forms.'
The idea that there are no protests in the US and no one is standing up to Trump is proving incredibly hard to kill over here in Germany. It’s become dogma, utterly detached from empirical reality.

I wonder if the people who keep talking like that understand they’re perpetuating regime propaganda.

Its amazing how stupid our media is.

Trump can basically go crybaby gangster on the entire world and USA Today will somehow interpret the headline as "Trump calls for Greenland negotiations, says US won't use force".

This is how we got here.

The same Europeans complaining about the failure of U.S. institutions to constrain Trump are sitting through his speech while planning to send teams and delegations to the World Cup and Olympics. They are just as unserious, guilty of learned helplessness and captured by capital as the U.S. Congress.

The double cognitive load of a) the President is deranged, and nobody in power acting he's deranged is stressful, and b) there are millions of Americans who get their news from media sanewashing the President, so they don't *know* he's deranged, so they think *we're* deranged, is ... fun.
