This is the kind of forceful intrusion into people’s lives that government should PROTECT us from.

Rights are unalienable, and are not gifts from government.

How does deporting a mom who had legal status for years make us safer?

The Trump administration should reverse course.
Restaurant owner gives free meals to active military during shutdown—now ICE is forcing her to deport.

She owns Tacos El Fluffy with her son—a U.S. Navy veteran.

Her work visa has been revoked—forced to self deport by end of month.

Son announced that he will have to close the restaurant for now.

The first reports of Charles Exum being placed on administrative leave have surfaced in the last 24 hours.

He shot Marimar Martinez 5 times on Oct 4, 2025.

The gov't dropped charges against her in Nov.

It took 4+ months for body cam footage to be released and Exum to be placed on leave.

#ICEOUT ‼️
Remember her name: Aliya Rahman

Her testimony is everything and it deserves to be heard, by everyone. Decide for yourself.

It’s powerful. It’s gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did.

ICE MUST GO‼️

Eight fractures. Brain bleeds. A shifting story. And a hospital staff terrified of armed agents. This is Minnesota now.

How many cases like this will be required to break through to the "things that didn't happen" crowd?
DHS initially claimed the shooting of Marimar Martinez was justified because agents “were ambushed by domestic terrorists that rammed federal agents with their vehicles.”

Footage reveals that agent Charles Exum slammed his SUV into hers and shot Martinez seconds after leaving his vehicle.
DHS shot her and called her a “terrorist.” New videos show something different.
"It’s time to get aggressive," a Border Patrol agent said shortly before Marimar Martinez was shot five times.

This is a picture that should be published everywhere: Pam Bondi refusing to even look at the Epstein survivors in the eye as they say they've been ignored by the DOJ. Someone who made their pain a political point just months ago. Cowardly and Disgusting.

Epstein survivors deserve justice.

Epstein’s associates who were complicit in his horrendous crimes must be held accountable.

There’s no two ways about it.

She’s literally making essentially the same argument that Epstein was making with his good friend Bannon.
literally "why are you talking about the raped and trafficked girls and women when the men who did it are making SO much money right now?"
she's truly a despicable, disgusting person
Bondi crashes out over Epstein: "The Dow is over 50,000 dollars! I don't know why you're laughing. You're a great stock trader as I hear, Raskin. The Dow is over 50,000 right now. The S&P at almost 7,000, and the Nasdaq smashing records. That's what we should be talking about."
