There is no such place as away
Everything is connected
There is no free lunch
Nature always wins

Earlier Trump refused to transfer 20,000 missiles to Ukraine to fight the Shahed drones raining down on civilians. The United States and Ukraine had already agreed on the transfer when Trump decided to skirt the deal after his conversation with Putin. These scenes are Trump and Putin's fault.

Incredibly chaotic scene Los Angeles as LAPD is pushing forward a skirmish line and violently arresting anti-ICE protesters. You can also hear me grunt when police shoot me in the abdomen with some kind of projectile.

How many other criminals might be getting this idea right now, given that actual ICE agents are refusing to show IDs, warrants, badges?
