In what seems to be a clear violation of the First Amendment, the Trump administration says filming ICE constitutes “domestic terrorism” and wants to prosecute people who do so
Meanwhile, killing immigrants in ICE custody has become an acceptable norm for the US
So-who are the real terrorists?

The real question is, what kind country threatens to take territory from one of its supposed “allies”-suggesting it might do so by any means necessary-if they won’t voluntarily surrender the land
That’s like Putin-after attacking Ukraine-telling Zelensky he’s a bad friend for resisting the invasion

Denmark lost more troops per capita in the post 9/11 war on Afghanistan. Saying they “are not a good ally” because they won’t surrender their territories to the US is lunacy. We are betraying our allies to satisfy the whims of a would-be Emperor for whom the US is not enough.
They’re again advocating against Denmark when it comes to Greenland

Correct me if I’m wrong, but didn’t Trump actually campaign to expose the Epstein files-the very issue he himself just called a “Democrat inspired hoax”
And why is it every investigation into him just-coincidentally-happens to be a “witch hunt”
It seems EVERYONE is against Trump. Including Trump.

Every Democrat running for office needs to promise investigations and full prosecutions from top to bottom, remove its funding bloat then break up the agency and distribute its core remaining useful functions across other agencies.
ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries.
Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves.
"Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks.
"No, guess he should've complied," agent says.
