We know the driver wasn't trying to run over the masked secret police because the vehicle continues to move in the same direction after she is shot and no masked secret police are run over.

I feel physically ill. Against my will, I have seen the video and this statement is the most foul set of lies to justify a murder. It's genuinely terrifying stuff.
DHS's first official statement is out, and they call the woman who was shot a domestic terrorist who they claim was trying to kill an ICE agent.
As a reminder, Tricia McLaughlin's post-shooting statements have been proven to be false MULTIPLE times in the past. They are simply not trustworthy.

It's illegal for the president to relieve student loan debt. It's completely fine for the president to unilaterally decide to have the head of a foreign nation black bagged on foreign soil.

Prison rape is wrong.
Jokes about prison rape are wrong.
Eliminating protections against prison rape is wrong.
If another country sentenced a criminal to be raped, we'd consider it a crime against humanity.
BUT
A large segment of Americans regard prison rape as a de facto part of the sentence.

My Epstein conspiracy theory is there probably isn't a great deal of actual *evidence* of heinous sex crimes by high profile names. Instead there are very wealthy people (most you have never heard of) that were financially entangled in the operation, and financial entanglement tends to leave a trail
EPSTEIN BOMBSHELL: my staff is releasing a new report showing JPMorgan Chase executives – all the way to the top – enabled Epstein's sex trafficking operation. You're going to want to read this.

I genuinely think they all deserve The Hague just for this. Fevers kill children; they can cause miscarriages and birth defects. Millions of Americans rely on OTC treatment every day; for many thousands it is the only option, and that number will grow thanks to this regime.

And if she's saying this, it's because she feels she must.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

Without trivializing these actions, are we seeing an attempt to create violence because today's protests didn't provide the required VT for "violent antifa protest"?
Just arrived on the scene at Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in South Portland. Here less than 10 minutes when agents charged out of the facility and used a pale yellow gas that caused tears and coughing in crowd members. Also shot munitions at those retreating.

I feel like a broken record, but I have to keep saying it over and over again: a farmer bailout won’t do much of anything because the market is gone. There will be no incentive to plant next year.
The bailout will help payoff farmer debt to the banks. That’s all.

The GOP clearly had a meeting to decide that this week's strategy is to cast the planned "No Kings" protest as anti-American and violent. If i were a less cynical person I would think they were running scared, but it could well be more sinister.

If any other president in all of history said the military should use American cities as a training ground he would be removed from office that same day. The hardest thing to tolerate in all this is how relatively silent elected democrats are. It’s ridiculous.
