Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.
The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

Why would Jeffrey Epstein kill himself in jail if he had this much leverage of the one person who could give him a full pardon?

I wanted to share probably the most important sermon I’ve given and it’s while I’m being arrested. It’s torture pure and simple what happens at #Broadview. I’m ok, though I was thrown to the ground and choked with my pectoral cross. A review of the video shows I was peaceful - did I deserve this?

Trump doing this is nonsense, but with deep respect, 9/11 was not "quite recently." Sorry old people (all of us over the age of 30). But my entire adult life has been after 9/11 (as has Mamdani's) and my childhood was a lifetime ago. If it still feels recent, that's trauma.
Politico is stirring up trouble, raising the possibility - seemingly out of the blue - that Trump could withhold a security clearance for Zohran Mamdani, denying him information on threats to the city that was quite recently the target of the worst terrorist attack in US history.
An early test of a Mamdani-Trump relationship? Security clearance.
The president has revoked security clearances as a way to punish political enemies.

"oh so the democrats have room for MTG but not mamdani" okay yes that's a big shitty problem BUT Raskin *enthusiastically* endorsed Mamdani months ago! So, y'know, everyone take a big breath here.
Raskin: We are a big tent. We must be a huge, vast tent. I say this is a party that’s got room for Marjorie Taylor Greene if she wants to come over.

It seems strange that as of right now JD Vance has not said a word about a Knoxville, TN police officer who is in the ICU trying to protect him. Not a word… not a thank you, not even thoughts and prayers. Thats all we need to know about Vance and maga. Smh

Barrasso: "What I know is that Jeffrey Epstein is a convicted sex offender and he is dead, and President Trump threw him out of Mar-a-Lago 21 years ago. To me what's going on with Epstein is this is the Democrats trying to appeal to their far-left base and trying to change the topic."

If Joe Biden had an MRI a month ago and we had no idea why it was done or on what body part and he claimed he had no idea about either of those things it would literally be all you heard about in the press but Trump just gets a huge pass b/c reporters treat him differently.
